Huda Beauty Light GloWish Soft Radiance Bronzing Powder ($31.00 for 0.28 oz.) is a very light, almost peach more than it was brown hue with soft, warm undertones and a “natural” matte finish. It had medium, buildable pigmentation, which was as marketed, that applied beautifully to bare skin with an even lay down of color that diffused with ease along the edges.

The bronzer had a smooth, silky consistency that was finely-milled without being powdery or too firmly-pressed into the pan. It stayed on well for eight and a half hours before fading a bit, though there was still 70% or so left after the full 12-hours marketed.

Formula Overview

$31.00 –

The formula is supposed to be “buildable” and “easy to use” with a “light-as-air, non-powdery texture” that lasts for “12 [hours].” The coverage was more semi-opaque to opaque, but the texture was forgiving and lived up to the “non-powdery” claim so a lighter hand was all that was necessary to pick up less product.

The texture was smooth, silky, and finely-milled with a firmer press that wasn’t stiff, so product picked up readily on a brush but was easy to control. The powders applied well to bare skin as well as over foundation, as they diffused easily, blended out and sat flatteringly on skin. They had a more “natural” matte finish where they did not appear totally flat and matte but weren’t overtly shimmery either.

The shades lasted between eight and nine hours on me before showing signs of fading, and most shades had around 70% of product visible at the 12-hour mark.
