Coloured Raine Cocoa Goddess Bronzer ($16.00 for 0.3 oz.) is a barely muted, darkish brown with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte end. It was opaque in its protection with little or no product; one wanted a lightweight hand and will nonetheless get extra semi-opaque protection! Because it wasn’t probably the most forgiving in texture when it got here to mixing–particularly over naked pores and skin–utilizing a lightweight hand was important making it work.
The consistency felt easy sufficient to the contact, however it was barely skinny and drier to me, which can be what gave it the ultra-matte end it had. Sadly, I’ve discovered the sort of texture doesn’t appear to work together as nicely with my pores and skin and sometimes seems patchy with product adhering strongly from the preliminary utility however not spreading or mixing out readily.
I’d advocate this system just for somebody who can be making use of it over set-foundation; I believe that drier, naked pores and skin will discover this attracts and accentuates flakiness. It was additionally best to mix out utilizing a bigger, buffer brush (clear of any product) or utilizing the remnants of my basis to melt the sides. It stayed on nicely for eight hours earlier than exhibiting indicators of fading.

The system is meant to be a matte bronzer, although the model additionally touted it as multi-use, so the powders is also used to brighten, set make-up, contour, or as an eyeshadow, relying in your pores and skin tone with respect to a given shade. The system is meant to be “buttery easy” and provides a “smoothing and pore blurring” impact.
It felt easy sufficient to the contact, however it additionally felt barely drier, which I’ve discovered is a sort of texture that’s usually tougher for me to mix out. This was true with a few of the shades–to various degrees–and it was best to use it over completely matte pores and skin/basis, e.g. over set basis, which made it extra forgiving for mixing. It really jogged my memory a variety of the feel AND expertise I had with Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Bronzer.
At its worst, the product would adhere inconsistently wherever I first utilized it however then not wish to diffuse or mix out. I had the perfect luck mixing out the shades extra persistently by gently tapping on product the place I needed probably the most protection (however not diffusing, mixing, or sweeping!) and utilizing a clear, buffer brush to mix extra vigorously. The system is most fitted for somebody who at all times applies their bronzer over matte or set basis and has no need to make use of it over naked pores and skin/luminous basis.
They have been very pigmented to the purpose the place just a little went a good distance, so utilizing a lighter hand can be a great way to begin utilizing this system after which adjusting as desired. When all the things blended out, it seemed matte and easy, although nearly flat-matte on my normal-to-dry pores and skin. They lasted between seven and eight hours earlier than fading visibly.
