I am a huge fan of Balm products. They are of excellent quality....they are super-pigmented, easily blend-able, long-lasting, little goes a long way, and luxurious looking. From my experience (I own their eye-shadows, highlighters, and bronzers), they do not clog pores or feel heavy on the skin...I find them to look very natural and enhance skin (such as their highlighters and bronzers).
This bronzer is matte and there is no shimmer or glitter. The reason I gave this bronzer 4 stars is because I wish it was a little darker in color to be used as my ONLY contour powder. I like a more dramatic but not a "in your face" contour look. I have MEDIUM/DARK skin-tone so this was a tad light to be used as my sole contouring powder. However, I use this bronzer as part of my contouring routine ( and would give it 5 stars for this). I use this as a transitional color under my cheekbones and sides of nose. And I love this bronzer for those parts! For those who prefer more natural look or subtle contour look and are of medium skin-tone, then this would work well. For very dark skin-tone, I do not think it would show up as well as a contouring powder but would look great as a crease color or transitional eye-shadow. And for those fair-skinned woman, this would work great as your sole contouring powder because it has no shimmer so you don't end up looking like a bronzy disco-ball.
I definitely would buy again because it is a lovely, non-shimmery bronzer that I like to use on sides of nose and as transitional color on cheekbones. It is hard to find a matte bronzer. At this price, I would buy again in a heart-beat. I recommend this product because you will find a use for this product....and for those light-skinned woman, I would use this matte bronzer to contour. Just remember, little goes a long way, recommend applying with fan brush or delicate brush and blend well.
