Nars Laguna Review: Perfect Bronzer for Pale Skin

Hey Girls,

One staple item that everyone needs in their collection is a good bronzer that can potentially be used in a number of ways. I have found just that in Nars Laguna. I had heard about this when I first bought it almost a year ago.  I must have been feeling a bit flush when the girl at the counter convinced me I needed it. I had been a drugstore bronzer kinda gal for years! I’m so glad I bought this bronzer because I use it in a number of ways.

Product Description & Claims:

‘A hero of the Nars colour collection, this globally award winning bronzing powder creates a warm, natural sun-kissed glow and contour for the face.’

My Thoughts:

This is a brown bronzer which is not orange whatsoever unlike traditional drugstore bronzer that I had been buying. It is mostly matte with a hint of shimmer so it looks extremely natural and slightly glowy. It’s not too pigmented so you’d have to be extremely heavy handed to go overboard. I really like this because I’m quite pale and if I go overboard with bronzer it just looks so wrong.

This product is so versatile! I used this as a contour product when I’m natural with no fake tan which is pretty much all the time. When I wear fake tan it’s a great bronzer. I also use this as an eyeshadow base during the week or when I’m feeling lazy. It’s a really good base colour and creates an easy and quick eye look without much effort.

It’s really long lasting on the face, lasting most of the day. The product itself is long lasting. I have mine almost a year and it has hit pan but I’m not running out. Keep in mind that I use this every single day and sometimes twice if I’m going out.

The only downside I will say is the packaging. It is the typical black Nars packaging with white logo. I’m not a fan of Nars packaging because it tends to get a bit grubby looking. Not something you want when you’re buying expensive products.

All in all I seriously love this product. I’ll be repurchasing when this one runs out.
