MY 2 CENTS
Looking online, there’s mixed reviews about Almay Smart Shade Bronzer. You either like it or you dislike it – I’m okay with it. I can work with it!

I’ve been using Almay Smart Shade Bronzer to warm up my pale complexion during the winter months. Although, I noticed that the formula is a little dry, it is still very much blendable. Basically, the powder is a little difficult to pick up but it’s easy to apply. I feel like the powder needs to be warmed up – just swirl around your brush a few extra times!

Don’t be afraid to use a heavy hand with this Bronzer (or any of the smart shade powder blushes) – they’re totally buildable but the heavier the hand, the more color pay off, the less time you need to use to “build” it.

The finish is matte. Use this powder all over or use it for some subtle contour work.

I feel like Almay Smart Shade Bronzer works best on fair or medium skin. It’ll be too orange on tanned skin, and too light on deeper skin.

Have your tried any of the Smart Shade Powder Blushes/Bronzers? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
