"If you're looking for a matte bronzer that's like similar to Quint but you like you want a powder then this is such a beautiful such a beautiful option i love this is one of my absolute favorites i just think the formula is really gorgeous it has like a luminosity to it without being shiny it's not a shiny bronzer it's definitely a matte finish but it kind of creates a little bit more of a satin look to the skin so if you're oily and you need a powder gorgeous formula it is like it has good pigment so unlike the E.L.F one or the Benefit one you want to just be a little bit careful it can build up quickly if you are very very pale but yeah it's beautiful beautiful i love it"

All 4 takes from Alexandra Anele

Yummmy, latte makeup but make it drugstore

"I'm just going to reinforce those creams with a little bit of the Maybelline City Bronzer. I'm just going to do a light dusting of this pretty much everywhere, like all around the perimeter of my face, all the areas that I applied contour and bronzer, because this is a very bronzy makeup look. I want to make sure that everything is lasting and setting, especially because I didn't use a setting powder everywhere. So I'm using a very light hand, dusting this basically everywhere. I'm going to build it up onto the cheeks and then just dust it around the outer perimeter of my face."

DRUGSTORE! How to look bronze NOT orange, for pale skin

"This is a beautiful beautiful tone for someone who's looking for something that isn't going to be like too orange or red. I love this bronzer, it's got this really nice olivy gold to it."

The products I recommend in REAL LIFE

"This city bronzer from Maybelline in shade 200, it's technically a bronzer contour. [...] There is a really beautiful amount of gold green in here. [...] It moves away from orange and it's more toward gold green that is going to be much more flattering for a skin tone like mine that is fair olive. [...] If you are fair and bronzers end up looking really orange or red on you, maybe you don't know your skin tone exactly, but this is the perfect drugstore bronzer for your skin tone. [...] The formula is really nice, it's pretty sheer and you can see [...] it's not going to go on super heavy so you it gives you time to build it up without being way too much. It's really really nice, I'm a big fan of Maybelline."

"I'm going to take my handy dandy City Bronzer from Maybelline, oldie but a goodie, this stuff is good and I'm just going to use this to warm up the face. I'm also going to take a little bit of that and use it to sculpt out the eyes just a little bit."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.
