This is one of the lightest shade bronzers I've found. Most bronzers are way too dark or leave me looking orange. This one is just perfect. It's also lightweight and leaves just a hint of color, but is buildable if you need more color.
I usually use this by itself or with a cream blush for a little glow. All in all this is a solid choice for people with really fair skin and want a little color without a full face of makeup.
