When it comes to bronzer, it can be tricky to find the right shade. One of the best selling products on the market is Hoola from Benefit and they have just released two new colours, Hoola Caramel and Hoola Toasted.
My colleague got in there before me and tried the caramel. I sampled the Toasted, which is a deep bronze colour. Benefit Hoola Toasted is a natural-looking bronzer that is suited for deeper complexions. It has the same natural-looking, matte finish as the original Hoola. Now I am a bit too light for this shade so I got my daughter to try it out once she has applied her fake tan. She is a big fan of the original bronzer so I thought she would be ideal to try the darker shade when she has that tanned look. She, however, found it didn't blend well and looked a bit grey in areas when she applied it all over her face, but she did use it to add colour to the highs of her cheeks and subtly contour. The new shade is more suited to darker skintones of the non-tanning kind.
Hoola Matte Powder Bronzers are available in four shades and cost £26 each. They are available at Benefit counters or online at www.benefitcosmetics.com
