[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] L’Oreal Back To Bronze Gentle Matte Bronzing Powder comes in a compact box with mirror and mini bronzing brush. I can use it quickly everywhere for a perfect sun kissed look. Back To Bronze is perfect for everyday use not just for party time. Never more dull and tired skin tone. I apply Back To Bronze on my cheeks, forehead, nose bridge and chin. I apply it in light layer because I like to keep my natural look. In box this colour seemed too dark to me but after trying it out I am very satisfied with this shade. Bronzing powder has to be quite dark compared to your skin tone. I do not even have to mention this products totally convinced me.
Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thus is such a lovely product. Everything about is is great. I like the colour and texture of the bronzer. It's build able and so easy to work with. The fragrance is so gorgeous, I wish more make up smelled as good as this bronzer does. What's especially great about this bronzer is that it comes with a small brush that sits in its own compartment underneath the bronzer. Also in this compartment is a mirror which is so handy. This bronzer is just a dream product that's perfect for travel or to use at home. It does take a while to get to grips with the brush because my usual bronzing brush is a lot more fluffy. Overall great product.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Back to Bronze is a lovely bronzer which left me with sunkissed looking skin. This product comes in a compact with a mirror and brush, which looks lovely, though I feel can be a little bulky. The product is a gorgeous buttery, smooth formula. It is quite pigmented so I found using a light hand and building up the wanted colour is better. I use a fluffy brush and found it picked up plenty of product. The colour itself is a warm tone, so may be a little dark for some skin tones or for those who need a cool toned product.\nOverall I will definitely be continuing to use this bronzer as it look wonderful on my skin.\n

Amazing product. As you can tell by the picture it looks very dark but this bronzer is such a great sun kissed colour that you can build to your liking. With this powder it is matte which I love and it only has the slightest glow to it which I prefer as I can put it all over my face and use it as a contour. I was worried it was going to be real glittery like some can be and then your really limited to your cheeks. Went on my skin real easy no cakeyness definitely loved the compact little case too with mirror and a little brush so you can “glow on the go”. Love this product and would definitely recommended.

The L'Oréal Paris Back to Bronze Matte Bronzer is a amazing bronzer when trying to achieve a natural sun kissed look. This bronzer is quite pigmented so it is ideal to tap it off a bit before applying it and a light hand is definitely needed. It however only comes in one shade which I think is disappointing as it excludes a significant amount of people from using it. This bronzer is also a little on the pricey side for a drug store product however it's still a bargain when compared to high end brands. I would recommend this to anyone on a budget that wants to achieve a natural sun kissed look.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I currently use a high end bronzer and I would say this is just as good! The colour is natural looking and not too orange and it gives a lovely sun kissed, non glittery appearance. It is not highly scented and it feels light on my skin and has not caused any break outs to date. I also used it as eyeshadow. My only complaint about it is that it doesn’t seem to last and I had to reapply a few times through out the day?
I would still purchase this again though purely for the value for money you get for such a good product. It’s packaged well and has a good size mirror but the brush it comes with is a bit rubbish and doesn’t give good application so I’d recommend using a proper bronzing brush.

i have a medium skin tone so i’m always a little unsure if bronzers are going to show up on my skin but this bronzer is gorgeous! it’s truly matte, i sometimes find that some bronzers that claim to be mattte still have some shimmer in them. \n\nThis bronzer is really natural but can build but to more pigmented bronzed face. \n\ni love the packaging of the compact, the little mirror and brush are great too! i also think that the little leaf pattern that’s been pressed into the bronzer is really pretty. Definitely will recxomend this bronzer to anyone looking for a natural sun kissed glow \n

L'Oréal Paris Back to Bronze Matte Bronzer is a beautiful compact product that I was lucky enough to trial. When I am looking for a bronzer, I am after a product that is not too dark, very light on the skin and keeps my skin feeling hydrated and not clogged. This product ticks all those boxes. It is extremely velvety to apply and you don’t need a lot on your brush which is great, it has a subtle scent of cocoa which is lovely, and not overpowering and can be applied to all areas of the face including the decolletage. I also used it to contour my face. The application for this product is easy and I love that it is compact enough to keep with me in my handbag. Definitely a bronzer that I would recommend!\n

Great matt bronzer, first thing I notice when opening the product was it smells amazing. The bronzer is smooth the particals are very fine and it's goes on smooth and stays all day. The packaging in includes a flat brush and mirror in the bottom half of the compact. I didn't find the useful to apply the bronzer, it would be good for a quick touch up if you needed. The inclusion of the mirror and brush doubles the size of the product, it would have been better to not include them and make the packaging smaller. This is a great product and will be part of my routine.

I love this bronzer so much. Has a lot of depth to the colour, very golden, no red or orange in it. Seems to be the only which does not irritate my skin after using all the cult high end ones and constantly suffering with bumps and acne. Creates a natural effect as it's not opaque, so you can wear it without foundation for a really natural no makeup look. The ONLY thing I really want L'Oreal to do it come out with a slightly deeper/darker shade keeping the exact same tone. Maybe just concentrating the pigments a bit? I would pay more if they did this, it's so lovely
ProsHigh quality
ConsNot durable
Yes, I recommend this product.

I like this product because it's definitely buildable so that you don't end up looking muddy and also it's matte which is more appropriate in the cooler months when you don't exactly want to be looking too shimmery. It provides subtle shade and dimension to the face. Docking a star because I definitely wouldn't use the brush it came with- way too stiff and small, and also because my packaging is defective and the pan is basically falling out of the container so everytime I use it I have to be extremely careful that the product doesn't fall out of its' casing.

Great bronzer. I also used this as a contour and it worked beautifully both ways. As a bronzer only a light hand was needed when applying and it gave an all over warm glow to my my complexion. My skin is light so sometimes bronzers can turn out quite orange on my skin but I found this one did not do that at all. When using as a contour I just used a bit more product and layered it wherever I was contouring and it gave a great shadow effect . Smells devine too . Did not emphasize any of my texture or pores - massive plus right there. Handy in size and you only need the 1 compact to do multiple things so great for traveling or touch ups on the go. Would recommend this product as it really is versatile and great value for money.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bronzer is the best bronzer I have used in ages. It’s a matte bronzer so it’s great for me as I have oily skin. It’s such a nice a nice colour, it’s not dark and overpowering like a lot of bronzers out there it’s a natural sun kissed colour so it’s colour name is very suited (02 SUNKISS). It’s very easy to apply and it’s great that in the case it comes with its own little brush underneath the bronzer. It also has a little mirror in the brush compartment, so it’s great to take on the go and ideal if you did need to top up your make up. I have pale skin so this natural subtler bronzer colour is perfect for me and I highly recommend this if like me you don’t want a caked on look, but want a nice natural finish to your make up.
Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] L’Oreal Back to Bronze Matte Bronzing Powder is great at delivering soft and natural glowing tan. It is good at blending and building up colour intensity. I prefer more natural look therefore a very small amount of the powder leaves my skin looking healthy and glowing. It stays on for the whole day which is fantastic! The powder comes in a container with a mirror and a brush which can be convenient however I am not impressed with the brush as it felt harsh on skin. I think that using better quality brush gives extra benefit for the product which is truly amazing. I am honestly impressed with the bronzer and now I wear it every day! Overall I am very happy with this bronzing powder therefore I would definitely recommend it to my friends.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Absolutely love this bronzer.\nI have medium skin tone and I just loved this matte bronzer. I loved how easy it was to apply and that is formed a beautiful even base on my skin. I felt the consistency was great and quite breathable as opposed to cakey. The finish was matte to begin with but i found it warmed into my skin and I ended up looking quite refreshed and the finish of it almost sheer. While i did use a setting spray with this product I was really happy with how my make up looked as the day progressed. I would reccomend this product. \n

The L'Oréal Paris Back to Bronze Matte Bronzer is a silky smooth pressed powder that is easy to apply and is able to be built apon until the desired effect is achieved. \nThe first application is quite subtle, but provides a very natural looking golden glow, and is a colour that I believe will work with all skin tones. The only dislike I have with this product is that I would not recommend that it be applied with the brush that is included with the product.\nAll in all very happy with this product and would highly recommend it! \n

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bronzer is perfect for adding the right amount of colour to your face and is buildable is you want to achieve a less subtle look.
Being pale skinned alot of bronzers can look very harsh and really obvious but I’ve found this to be the best bronzer I’ve ever used (really!!).Thank you L’Oréal for creating this matte bronzer,it is always in my bag/on my face.Another bonus point is that this bronzer comes in a compact,complete with a little brush applicator and mirror!The compact is also beautiful and sturdy too.

Finally, a "drugstore" bronzer that claims to be matte that IS actually matte. Over the years, I have found that many of the cheaper bronzers are advertised as being matte but still have a bit of shimmer to them which I hate as I use it to contour and in turn create depth, and shimmery products obviously don't produce the same effect. The formula is creamy but with a subtle pigment which is great to build with and perfect for those "no makeup" look days where you don't want to look done up. I love that the packaging comes with a cute little mirror and brush, even though I found the brush didn't blend out well (I would personally use the brush to contour the side of the nose). Overall I really liked this bronzer and would recommend it those who after a true matte bronzer.

Loreal back to bronze is the first bronzer product I ever used so I was little afraid of using it but this matt non shimmery medium toned bronzer is so versatile Im actually falling in love with this and also I'm using it as a contour side of my nose bridge and use it as shade which works really well. It has soft brownish color when you first apply so you can build it up or just use it once or twice to achieve natural sun touched look around your face. Since its not shimmery I am finding it really useful i even tried it as a eye shadow base or mix it up with my other eye shadow and it works really well. It even comes with the brush I thought it was little thin to work with but you have many brushes at home so I guess its not a big deal but wish it was little bit more thicker.

LOVE THIS! It is so hard to find a nice bronzer that isn’t borderline orange/chunky glitter/dirt resembling/too shiny but this bronzer is perfect! \n\nPerfect mix of matte and shimmer, easily buildable and blendable, super natural looking. The little brush that comes with it is also surprisingly soft although I prefer a bigger fluffy brush with bronzer as it’s definitely easier to apply and blend in. \n\nOnly downer is how small the dish is, I’ll go through it in no time! Will definitely buy again though\n

Love this bronzer it goes on beautifully and easily it’s buildable has a creamy texture that feels light on the skin and blends perfectly great for winter as I often get a bit pale in the colder months and this just left my face with a soft natural look. It comes in a beautiful package with a mirror and brush which is handy for on the go. I really love this product and would definitely recommend it for the natural makeup no makeup look but also think it’s buildable if you are after a stronger look.

I have fair skin tone and this brozer is a good universal shade. Its not that pigmented once applied with a brush (not the brush supplied with product). Its a buildable pressed bronzer and not a 'muddy' shade once applied. The formula is smooth but has a chalky feeling, not sure if that puts anyone off but I found it very easy to work with.\nI didnt like the brush applicator supplied as its a bit too rough on my skin so I used my own brush.\nLeaves a matte finish and doesnt move all day.\n

The back to bronze bronzer is a cute like compact equiped with a mirror and brush (I did find the brush a little to hard so I used a nice fluffy brush instead) I loved the fact it was matte, as these days it’s quite hard to find one without any shimmer. The product felt light on the skin, it gave my skin a beautiful sunkissed feel (without looking like I’ve been dipped in a bag or Doritos) it blended nicely and was very buildable depending on the desired look you were wanting to achieve

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product for two weeks now and really happy with it.
When I first opened it I was surprised to find a brush in the bottom compartment which is soft and shaped lovely to use. This is ideal for my handbag to use when out and about.
The colour really looks natural on my skin tone. I have got the 02 sun kiss. I use this over the L’Oréal bonjour nudista in medium.
This powder has no scent, it is soft feeling on the skin.
I would definitely recommend.

I just can't get enough of this new range! The L'Oreal 'Wake Up and Glow' Collection has blown my mind. The design and quality of all products received are good quality, extremely pretty and provide an excellent addition to my boring make up routine! I would definitely recommend this L'Oréal Paris Back to Bronze Matte Bronzer. It is so soft and easy to blend. Great to use for an eyeshadow base. The addition of a compact mirror and mini brush is an A+!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

This bronzer is one of the best I’ve used, although I could do with it a touch lighter. The bronzer is a beautiful matte which is a great change, and it’s so easy to build into a contour. Surprisingly this blended so easily it almost melted into the skin and stayed put all day.\nThe bronzer comes with a little brush and mirror underneath, perfect for touch ups during the day or adding more for nighttime. For me the best thing was it didn’t irritate my sensitive skin.\n

I’ve never really used bronzers when I do my own makeup, only if I’ve had my makeup done for a special event as I’m not overly confident using them.\n\nThe product does look quite dark when you open it so I tried to only use a small amount in case. I was really impressed with the sun kissed glow this bronzer gives you and you really don’t have to use a lot so it will last. \n\nI also trialed it as an eyeshadow and it worked extremely well for another great look.\n

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this bronzer, such a natural shade that gives my skin a beautiful sun kissed look without the shimmer that so many bronzers seem to have. I have a neutral skin tone and find that bronzers often look too warm but this is perfect. Sadly I dropped it on the floor the other day and the powder cake smashed to pieces so my only criticism of this is that the packaging doesn't offer it much protection. Probably not an issue for anyone less clumsy than me though!

Finally a bronzer that is matte, doesn't leave my face sparkling and doesn't cost the earth! To say the least i am very picky with bronzer's and this has really blown me away. It doesn't have that organgey tone to it, easy to blend in and can reapply without any issues. \nI have fair skin tone in winter and this is a great colour for me, i used the sunkissed colour, It really did leave me with a sunkissed glow. Will be purchasing and would highly recommend!\n

The L'Oréal Paris Back to Bronze Matte Bronzer is a beautiful bronzer shade. I have medium-tan asian skin tone and find bronzers lean on the shimmery/warm side often look really unnatural on my skin. This bronzer however is very natural looking and because the colour leans a little more cooler you can lightly shade it into your cheekbones to give that more sculpted effect. I haven't tried a lot of affordable bronzers but this one has seriously impressed me.

I was a bit scared by how dark this product was, however, it applied well and blended perfectly. The product is buildable so start lightly if you have the same concerns. It worked great for subtle daytime contouring and if added to would create the perfect night time look. I didn't use this as a traditional bronzer, but think this will be great in summer, not only on the face, but on shoulders and collarbones as well to add dimension with a highlighter.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this glow! Let’s face it, come March we’re all looking a bit pale and wintery - a little brush of this over my cheeks and I was back to looking glowing and healthy. Goes on nicely and blends well, not too harsh and not at all orange but nice and sunkissed. Comes with a great mirror in the bottom compartment and a space for the brush which is a great size for the product and I love having it stashed away so it doesn’t get make up all over my bag :)

First of all I want to mention how great the compact is with the little compartment for the brush and the mirror. It was definitely a nice little surprise making it perfect for touch ups on the go. I really love the bronzer colour and I think it would suit a lot of skin tones. The only downfall for me is it didn't seem to have staying power. I wore it for a few hours but when I looked in the mirror when I got home I couldn't really see it on anymore.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Over the years I’ve spent far too much in my quest for the perfect shade - not too dark and not either too orangy or toned to make your face look gruby; yet until now I’ve not had much success. This is a game changer product. It’s the perfect tone at a great price that lasts the day. Plus in as if that wasn’t enough you also get an applicator brush and a mirror for on the go. This product must surely be up there with the beauty must buys for 2018.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I will also definitely be purchasing when the time comes. \n

I received the Back to a Bronze matte bronzer In Sunkiss 02 shade and at first I thought it may be too dark for my skin tone but I was pleasantly surprised as it worked perfectly on the hollows of my cheeks and under my jawline as it really did help in contouring my features. The powder is really easily blendable and perfect when using with the other L’Oréal products. I love the Matt finish as it stops that shiny look some bronzers leave you with.

Love love love this bronzer! Even on my fair skin, it was such a nice shade. Easily blended and buildable. Great for contouring as well as an overall glow. I usually used a high end brand that costs a lot more but am now 100% converted to this little gem! It also comes with a mini brush in a separate compartment which is really handy for touch ups.. or for people like me who do most of their make up on the train because I'm always running late!

The bronzer shade I got is Back to Bronze. I have fair skin with freckles. I have to be careful with bronzers to ensure I don't get too orangey shades but this bronzer was a perfect fit for my complexion! Its matte so you can use it as a contour if you wished to. As with the blush you get the mirror underneath with the mini brush. This bronzer really livens up my face in conjunction with the peach blush and I love it! Well done L'Oreal! \n
