MAC Dark Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Powder

Bobbi Brown's Bronzers are the BEST! The reason being is that they never look too orangey. But what happens when you need an orange bronzer? Whether it was a very light golden orange girl with African Decent or a very tan Nordic girl, maybe with a little self tanner on, I didn't know what to do! None of my Bobbi bronzers were cutting it. Hmmm… I was stumped. Bobbi's golden light and even deep looked so pinky/ red on some of my clients that were truly more golden/ orange. 
I went to Bloomingdale's in SoHo to see my girls and chat it up about some bronzer. I made swatches on my hand (and arm) of all the bronzers in the department.  MAC's Dark Mineralize Skinfinish Natural, which isn't even a bronzer at all but a medium coverage powder, made the cut with the best color, texture and price. And I couldn't be happier with my purchase. 
The color is a dark almond/ golden/ orange/ light brown color. The texture was very silky and easily blended with a very light shimmery finish that's barely noticeable. Not a light coverage but not a lot of pigment either. Really exactly what I was looking for! With my Mac pro discout the total price was about $15. Perfect!
