Benefit Hoola Bronzing Powder

I first came across the Hoola bronzer by Benefit when I was at Sephora looking for a bronzer that was dark enough to wear now that I had just returned from 2 very long tropical vacations back to back. I tried on various shades but I was so intrigued by the Hoola bronzer because it mimicked the look of my natural tan so perfectly, it didn't look orange or shimmery, just naturally tan. So I decided to purchase it, feeling confident in my decision, even though it was slightly pricey as it costs about $28 US. When i arrived home I began my make-up process as usual, concealer, tinted moisturizer and a thin veil of translucent powder. I then took my kabuki brush ...  Read the complete review

This was one of the best christmas presents i got. I am rather pale and dont like to look like i have put too much bronzer on. This powder over the top of my foundation makes me look like i have had a nice holiday in the sun without looking orange or fake! It comes in a hardy box that can withstand a fair amount of battering when its been in my bag on a night out. Not only is it great for your face, it can also look good on ur neck and chest so that you are one nice colour. This product looks great with other benefit make up like highbeam. This is one product that i am not without on a daily basis. At an average proce of £22.50 i think that this is a good buy. It last a ...  Read the complete review

Really lovely product...I got this as a christmas present along with a few other benefit things Comes in this cute little box with a really nice brush that sits inside it. I think its quite expensive but worth it, and I would say the same for the entire benefit range you can tell its good quality therefore i can justify splashing out a little now and then :) The shade of bronze is really quite dark...but this is what a like about it. I know it might be a little too dark for some people if they have very pale skin tones. I have read that celebrity fans of this product include none other than Ms. Christina Aguilera so I guess thats a good ...  Read the complete review

I'm not into make up and up until a few weeks ago I only owned a mascara, a tinted moisturiser, a blemish stick and blush. I was very blessed to be handed a carrier bag of different makeup products from a friend of mine and I've been experimenting ever since. Hoola is made by Benefit and costs £22.50. It's a bronzing powder that comes in square box and sitting on top of the powder inside the box is a brush. I was over the moon when I saw this in the bag because I have been meaning to buy a bronzing powder for a while now but never knew which one to go for. This one certainly wouldn't have been on my list due to the price. There is no ...  Read the complete review

Benefit Hoola face powder is a very dark bronzing powder. I really have trouble using this - I look like I have bronze stripes all over my face as it is really hard to blend correctly. The girl at the Benefit counter said once your brush is loaded with powder 'take it off in the lid'. This doesn't work for me and I still look all stripy. The brush that comes with the powder is dinky, cute and totally useless. You really do need to use your own powder brush for this one. This powder is matt with no sparkles or shimmer and you really do not get a lot for your money. I also find that when you have it in your make up case with everything else the powder breaks very easily ...  Read the complete review
