Does the world need any morebronzers?

An editor whose job is to test products for a living, I ask myself this question daily.
In such a saturated market, a new launch needs to be intentional.
It needs to be additive.

It needs to fill a white space.
Mario Dedivanovic set out to do just that with his new SoftSculpt Bronzing & Shaping Serum.
Tinted serumsare aplentylets not kid ourselves.

But with a new-to-market pump-meets-wand applicator, the multi-purpose design aims to create a user-friendly, you-do-you experience.
Think: Bronzer for beginners.
Ahead, four editors wear the Bronzing & Shaping Serum every way imaginable and share their honest reviews.

I used a pump on my hands to massage the product into my skin.
It didnt aggressively dominate my complexion but delivered a super subtle bronzer tint.

The formula blended out easily, leaving an incredibly diffused definition along my forehead and cheekbones.
There were no harsh lines (my constant contour downfall) or heavy patches.
I even went totally crazy and applied somemoreproduct with a fluffy brush.

Can we give a round of applause for the glow?
Don’t believe me?
Take a look at my face and see for yourself.

It played nicely with my normal foundation and didnt budge throughout the day.
I recommend applying it light layers, rather than applying a ton at once.
