I'm beg to differ, unfortunately :( I ended up with glitter all over my face using both the bronze and the rose gold. *sigh*

I don't think this is too shimmery, but that's my opinion. Any color works great with fair skin I have the bronze and I love it. I'd go with the peach color if I were you and apply a little to the apples of your cheeks alone or other another blush.

I have fair skin too and I bought Gold. This is not too glittery. It is a barely-there shimmer that is very flattering. The shimmer is micro, it does not look like cheap sparkles bought at a drug store. Trust me.

i used a little bit of hot glue. put the hot glue on the inside of the compact first, not on the make-up itself. Worked great and never came loose again!

I've been using this on my face (cheeks, bridge of the nose, etc), but I have also been using it on my collar bone on nights out. You can use it pretty much anywhere you like to add some glow!

answer 2

I apply it on my cheek bones, my nose, my brow bone, above my brow bone near the hairline, and on my chin. Basically apply it like you would bronzer. -If you feel hesitant, just apply it to your cheek bone and brow bone to brighten your face.

Question

How do you apply this product?

Whenever I use a brush, it doesn't seem to pick up too much of the powder as it is baked compactly; and when I used my fingers it still didn't show up that much against my cheeks....maybe it's my skin color but is there a way to apply this that actually shows up on my face?

I would say, Use a Big Soft brush. Dont press it too much when you are usin g the bronzer and when you are putting on do it in circular motion to blend it well. Look yourself in the mirror and decide if you want more color and do it again. I think the "Key" to use this powder it's dont use to much. Good luck

Try another brush. Something for foundation works best. If you are using inferior brushes then that's your problem. It shouldn't be difficult at all to apply.
