Early verdict · Few reviews so far

What the gurus are saying

The shade hits a balanced note between warm and cool that doesn't read muddy or orangey on skin, which reviewers kept returning to as a standout quality. The stick formula is pigmented enough that warming it on your hand first helps you control how much you use, and the applicator makes it simple to blend across the face. Applied with a fluffy brush rather than a precise one, it adds a natural warmth back into the complexion without looking like deliberate bronzing.

    "Besides the Makeup by Mario one, that is truly my favorite. This has to be my second favorite. And I have been using it a lot. I really do like the applicator. It's just so easy to apply all over the face. So, if you love liquid bronzers and you're looking for something new, then this is a nice one to try."

    "I had the Mario Makeup by Mario one. Yeah. And I hit pan eventually ran out of it. Yeah. That's the only one I've ever used. That's a good one. I brought It's actually the stick ones. It's not the pink one. [...] So, this is going to be a little more pigmented than the one that you were discussing. [...] I love to warm things up on my hand. I I feel like it makes all the difference and it helps you control how much you're using."

    "If you are looking for a powder bronzer, I absolutely love the Makeup by Mario ones. [...] I layered this all over today as well and it's just so beautiful. It has the perfect level of pigmentation to where you can really apply it and kind of use a heavy hand and it's never going to look overdone. The shade range is also great. For fair skin especially, it doesn't look too orange on me, but it properly warms up the complexion, which is what I always look for."

    IT'S TIME! THE BEST MAKEUP OF 2025 🥳
    "It feels a little bit better than the other powder that they used to have. [...] It's such a good matte blurring bronzer. I feel like Makeup by Mario does an amazing job with the shade range as well, which I feel like is hard for me sometimes with super fair skin. It's hard to find a bronzer that doesn't pull too red or too warm or orangey on me, and his bronzers never do. They just genuinely look sculpted and warm. They're so good."
