It has really good reviews in MUA. Would love a dupe of this bronzer

I have the Faux Tan. A little goes a long way. It is basically just a dark brown mostly matte bronzer. There may be a little shimmer in there but not that much. It does work pretty well at giving a tan look. For people with paler skin I think a teeny bit would do! I mix it with the Bare Radiance. Right now I have been using it to make my face look more even (I got a little sunburned the other day.) I also use it to make my neck look a little more tan to match my face.

I recently tried BE's Faux Tan at their counter, and it is VERY similar to SN Tahiti Sweetie (a dupe of Benefit's Hoola bronzer, although I've never used or tried that) - it's a lovely almoste matte bronzer, won't make your skin look 'muddy' and is definitely more brown/tan than orange (as some bronzers can be :? ).

I have also been using this to even up my skin tone - I have melasma and although I always keep the sun off my face, my body tans really easily; this product reduces the demarcation between the darker melasma afflicted skin & the rest of the skin on my face, whilst making my face & body more of a similar colour.

You can apply it really lighly or build it up for a more intense tan effect, mix it with a splodge of moisturiser & apply it to your legs (as I recently did for a friend's wedding), and it works really well as an eye shadow too - particularly with green or blue eyes.

I would definitely recommend at least trying a a sample size - I bet you'll love it :D
