Benefit Hoola Bronzer

I'm finally coming out of the blogger shadows and get back to writing! Lately I've just been very busy with settling into my new job and then family and friends commitments its all been a tiring. I've really just not felt like writing, and I didn't really have anything that I felt like I wanted to share. But after doing  my makeup a few days ago and realizing that I'e never actually shared one of my favorite products and I think its time that I do....


A cult in the beauty world, a one you've probably already heard a load about the Benefit Hoola bronzer. 

Since I've recently darkened my hair I felt like my skin would just look washed out if I didn't darken my skin down with it so this product has been a life saver. I'm a pale person, all thanks to the British weather, but I also do occasionally wear fake tan. So to have a bronzer that I can use when I'm pale and tanned and still look subtle is a much have in my books.


The one thing that I love the most about this one is defiantly just the colour. I always think its hard to find a bronzer that isn't a baked orangey colour, not very flattering on pale skin. The Hoola is a brown shade, not orange. Which might not sound flattering on pale skin either but, its buildable.

I normally use this as a kind of contour so my cheek bones, sides of my forehead, jaw and the edges of my nose, and this is enough to darken my skin down and also make my face look a bit slimmer. 

It being so buildable also obviously gives a kind of buildable contour, so its a staple. Great for a natural day time and also a super sharp contour for a night. And, its a brown tan and not a orange, so it doesn't look ridiculous if you go for a heavier bronze.  


I've used this ever since Christmas and it is a solid fav for me. This hasnt been a indepth review as such but I feel with makeup theres only so much to really say.

But this bronzer works for both my my skin is pale and tanned, great for all over face and for a contour. So, it is a staple it my makeup bag.

Thanks for reading and hopefully I will get back into the swing of blogging more regularly.

Date Night

The 'date night' kind of look where my makeup gets a little bit heavier and a bit more effort goes into looking nice all just to sit in Nandos and eat chicken. Que some very serious moody face looking selfies
