I received this product gifted by ONE/SIZE and this is hands down the best bronzer/shading palette I have ever used. I was worried that the lightest shades would be too light for me because in the past sometimes lighter bronzers don't show up on me, but it worked beautifully and the blending was so effortless. ...The two shades of bronzer add warmth without being too orange or red and the contour shade adds definition without going muddy on me.
