Okay, so I am getting new bronzer, Ive narrowed it down to
too faced choclate soleil
nars laguna

I am extremely fair NC15, and I want to look more bronzed but it still be natural, I dont want to come off as shiny, or glitterly, but my foundation is completely matte, so I dont want to look completely matte either, just healthy and bronzed

i love the warmth from bare minerals. It's not cake if you use a little amount and it won't look fake. Just use a buchi brush and use a tiny amount. it'll look fresh and natural.

i like both options (and have both) too faced is more matte in my opinion, and I think it is super natural buffed on with their bronze-buki brush. but i think you'll have to see which shade works best for your skintone? :)

I am kinda of weird with bronzers, I dont typically wear them, but I am kind of getting into them a little bit. drugstore bronzers scare me, because they tend to look orangey I think so anyways, and I tried the MAC one in golden, and it is so sheer you have to cake it on really heavy to get it to show up at all

NARS' Laguna is great. It used to be my go to Bronzer when I was NC15-20. It's really nice. Even my mom who's not even into makeup (NC20) REALLY loved the way it looked on her face. It's not a giant glitter bomb either, it just has a really nice bearly-there sheen. :)

I agree with Ali. I'm also very fair and I use Bare Minerals in Warmth. I apply it with a blush brush usually, or an angled brush and I take the excess off on the back of my hand before I put it on my face. A little goes a long way.

I love the Too faced Chocolate Soleil! It is so easy to blend and to make it look natural. I have not tried the Nars Laguna, just because of the little shimmer that it has. I tend to favor the completely matte ones, but that just my personal opinion. I guess there's a reason why so many love the Laguna! :) An other good suggestion is the Benefit Hoola bronzer. I actually can't see any difference between this one and the Chocolate Soleil. The only thing that is different is the smell, and they both smell really good :)

i'd love a swatch, because I do want laguna and hoola, but I ended up going with chocolate soleil, I was craving chocolate when I order it. Hubby wanted me to order it online

I'm quite fair also, the "bronzer" I love is the Matte FX powder in medium. It's technically not a bronzer, but it works great as a contour powder for light skin tones!

I did a how to tutorial using it and the model was quite fair :-)
