"I freaking love my Hourglass bronzer. It is so good. It is so flattering. It's got a little bit of radiance, but not like glittery sheen. I will just take a brush, kind of fluff it in there, and then just sort of dust it over the periphery of my face. It's a way to add powder to your face, but that's also truly makeup. So you're not just looking powdery and bright everywhere. It's truly adding something to your complexion."
