"To contour the sides of my nose, I like to use a shade of bronzer that is slightly lighter than the Charlotte Tilbury one. This NYX one is great."

"It's really really nice for a drugstore price bronzer. I think it's beautiful, and [...] the packaging is really beautiful packaging for a drugstore bronzer product. It feels a bit heavier, it's a nicer plastic, and it does give like a medium end kind of brand feel. I think it's actually really nice. I don't think it's overhyped. I think if you find the right shade for you in the bronzer, this is a beautiful product. I [...] actually quite like it."

"Recently, I have bought the Buttermilk bronzer by NYX. All I do right, is I go like this, and I put it on my face."

"It truly looks so seamless all over the cheeks and along the forehead. It seems like it has a little bit of a healthy glow to it, nothing crazy, just a little bit, and that seems really nice. The color is a little bit too red for my personal taste, but I don't think it looks bad, so for me it might just be that I need to go find a shade that has a more neutral undertone versus this. But I do think this is a really nice formula. I can see why everyone's really loving it, it blends really nicely."

"I'm using the NYX Butter Melt Bronzer in the shade Butter Than You. [...] This is optional, but it really helps your features pop when you use a lighter concealer in the center of your face."
