PHOTO 4/9
Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Powder Bronzer in Light, $36
Rimmel London Natural Bronzer in Sun Dance, $4.99
The Breakdown:
In a single swipe, I can tell whether a bronzer has any of my three deal breakers: It's too brown, too orange, or has too much shimmer. With that "I've just returned from the islands" natural summery glow, both of these bronzers passed all three tests. The products lasted on my face all day without breaking into splotchy patches, and both have just the slightest amount of glimmer to warm up the complexion.
The Winner:
It's a tie. The tortoiseshell packaging on the Estee Lauder product is so pretty I leave it out on my vanity to display, but the Rimmel product is comparable for a fraction of the price.
