Smooch Cosmetics Week - Smooched Bronzer

Hey beauties, 

This week is Smooch week. 
I was very, very kindly sent a bundle of products to try, so I figured I would dedicate a week to reviewing said products. 
I have given them a good test and I feel this week may come in handy, if you do ever fancy purchasing a few new items.

This is the Smooch Bronzer in Smooched*. 
Packaged in the sleek and simple black casing , you receive a great 10g of product. This includes a highlighter shade (which can be seen below,) that is neatly swirled into the bronzer.
The packaging is very much like that of Nars, and can get a little grubby due to it's matte, rubberised finished. But, this does mean that it's less likely to slip out of your hands.
Inside the casing is a handy brush and a huge mirror. I was really impressed.
I would definitely be happy to remove my compact mirror from my hand bag if I was to be carrying this around with me during the day.

The bronzer itself is a lovely tan shade, with a soft shimmer. It may be a little too orange toned for the fairer skinned, although I very much like it for myself. After all, I do love my bronzer. 
The highlighter is beautiful both on its own and mixed together with the bronzer. I did find it a little hard to use it alone as it's so thinly run through the product. I discovered using a tapered brush was the best was to pick up the highlighter only, if you do wish to do so. 

I found this may not be the best bronzer for use as a contour shade, due to its shimmer. But, this may be purely down to my own preference. Each to their own. 
It does on the other hand look amazing softly swept across the higher points of the face. I absolutely cannot wait to wear this is Summer when I have a little more colour in my skin to compliment it. 

If you are a bronzer fan like me, or even just want to give your skin a lovely bit of colour and glow, this is the product for you. 
When the sun is out, this is what I'll be reaching for. 

You can purchase this on the Smooch website for £13.95.
