This is what I use every day and it's the best I've found. I like that it isn't too shimmery but still provides some very nice warmth to my face. Especially in the winter time!

I love, LOVE bare minerals. It just works for me. But beware... a little goes a long way! Don't over-bronze or you will look silly.
This is my fave because it feels light as air and is a perfect, subtle color for my skin tone. Very rich and warm.
I highly recommend Bare MInerals... I think it's all that it's amped up to be. Lives up to it's rep.

Not too shiny, but just the right amount of sparkle. Can perk you up without wearing anything else!

I like Too Faced but beware it is a little bit on the dark side (not like Darth Vader dark side... don't worry) but if you have pale skin it might be a bit too dark for ya. I love it though...adds a nice glow to my skin when I need it in the middle of winter.
If you are looking for something new it would be a fun new thing to try!

Okay so this isn't one of those "hot" items for 2011but it is totally the best bronzer around, if you ask me at least.
So what do I like so much about it that makes it worth $32? I think it is superior to a lot of products in a few key ways, one being texture and the way it feels on my face. It's very light, like it's not even there. I would say in that way it is the gentlest on my skin, too.
Another thing is I prefer the slight brown tint to the orange tint that a lot of other bronzers have. More natural looking, which I certainly appreciate.
The only thing I don't like is the price! But when I find a product I really like I tend to develop a sort of loyalty to the product, so I'm sure I'll be purchasing again!
