Will purchase again & again ✨
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this product so much! I don’t know what TJ other reviews are talking about by saying it doesn’t last long - when I apply this, it lasts all day. I did a darker shade than I thought I should but that worked out great because it makes me look tanner and makes my skin look so shiny, glittery, and even. For the price, you can’t beat this product. I get excited to put it on! Do yourself a favor & get this. You deserve to feel pretty and shiny :)

Gorgeous summer glow anytime
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The body shimmer is like being kissed by warm summer breeze a glow of star dust. It lights not sticky or tacky. It gloriously luxurious but simple way to step a look.

Cute, Smells like Chemicals
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Looks great but transfers easily. I liked the shade and how the glitter was visible but not distracting. I wasn’t fond of how it smelled but I covered the scent with my sunscreen and I didn’t notice afterwards. Smells like a chemical like scent but it was worth the value I paid for. Good as a highlighter, to add a touch of glow to the face. You can’t see it under foundation but it’s cute on the cheek bones to give a make up less look on a sunny day. The brush is also good quality.
