Worth The Hype? Benefit Hoola Bronzer

For Christmas this year, as part of a gift set I received Benefit's Hoola bronzer. Obviously this product is highly recommended by beauty gurus and I thought I'd do a "Worth The Hype?" to express whether I think it deserves the hype it gets.

This product is very highly pigmented. The colour is a matte, warm brown. Before this bronzer, I had loved NYC's Sunny bronzer which is a similar warm brown shade. The warmth of this bronzer makes it easy for it to suit most skin tones. My best friend also has this bronzer and I know she swears by it despite her being a much fairer skin tone than me. 

This can be used to contour and just for general bronzing of the face and it can be layered to look more heavy or lighter. I personally think you have to be careful because it is so pigmented so to avoid looking "muddy", I make sure that I tap excess product off of the brush before applying it to my face.

This product I have been told "lasts a lifetime". It contains 8g of product and retails at £23.50. I think it is worth the hype.
