Favorite powder bronzer! Most bronzers look too orange and warm on my pale skin, but not this one. ...Great for my pale complextion...So first I'll admit I don't do bronzer's all the time for one I love my pale skin and I've learned to embrace that ages ago but I do like to play with new things and bronzer's are just something that I've never given much of a thought to until the past year or two.
What it is:
A travel-size bronzer that fuses the illuminating effects of Ambient® Lighting Powder with bronze pigments to add depth and dimension for a sunkissed glow.
What it does:
Perfectly sized for travel, each mini compact fuses the illuminating effects of Ambient Lighting Powder with bronze pigments for sheer, airy, buildable color with a radiant finish. While traditional bronzer tends to be flat, Ambient Lighting Bronzer uses Photoluminescent Technology for seamless blending and color transitions. The hand-made powders are formulated using an advanced miscelare technique—which means "to mix" in Italian—creating the perfect balance of pigment and powder, and no two look alike.

Way too orange for pale skin!...I can’t speak for everyone but with fair skin, I prefer a cooler toned bronzer. I know it’s not meant to contour, that it’s a bronzer, but with super fair skin, the orangey/yellow tones tend to make you look sick, like I have jaundice or something. ...Cream Bronzer...I have very pale skin with pink undertones and while I do like the shade, I think it is slightly too yellow/orange for me.
