Review on the Viral Nudestix Bronzer Stick

The Nudestix Nudies Matte Cream Bronzer went viral last year when Sofia Richie got married. When her makeup artist released the video of her using the bronzer stick on Sofia, it was beautiful. It intrigued me to try it.

As a cream that is advertised as being matte, I was a little hesitant on how it would blend. Matte products are known to be a little difficult to work with due to their fast drying factor. If not blended, it can look patchy, muddy and even heavy. The product proved me totally wrong!

When swatching it on my hand, it was creamy and blended instantly on my hand with a sponge and a brush. On my face, it blended so easily. Disclaimer though! It still has a relatively quick drying time, but there is definitely more time compared to other products I have tried. I would still recommend blending as soon as you put it on so it doesn't have a chance of drying. Despite the drying time, the product still preformed so well. The product gave a sunkissed bronze look without having too warm of a undertone.

The first time trying it out, I did go a little heavy upon application which was definitely not needed. The product is very pigmented and you do not need a lot to see results. However, if you do want to add more, the product does layer great without taking off the foundation underneath. I personally felt it blended better with a brush, but the sponge worked just as good. It also paired beautifully with the rest of my makeup. Once I was done with the full look, I was in love! What was even better was the longevity of my makeup. I noticed my makeup lasted a lot longer when using this product.

I also believe that the product size is a great amount. Compared to other bronzing sticks, the amount is not compromised. With you not needing a lot, it will last you a lot longer! The brush on the other side is also great in a pinch as it suited its purpose. The packing is a plus as it's cute and includes a mirror!

(For reference, being an olive skin tone, I got shade Bondi Bae which was a great match to my skin.)

Overall, 5/5 for this product!
