Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Wave Bronzing Balm - 1.48oz - Ulta Beauty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice bronzer and easy to use. I found that the pigment showed up on my skin tone and did not negatively affect my makeup application. The only gripe is that it took a couple of swipes to pick up product. I did not notice a scent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this bronzer balm! It apples evenly and I can smooth it over the areas I want it, it lasted all day. It was easy to apply and it’s very buildable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definitely takes a learning curve! I was expecting a true balm with this which I was really excited for as I have very dry skin but it’s definitely more of a balm-to-powder. A little tough to blend at first. I would definitely recommend warming it on the back of your hand before applying. The color is nice! Packing is super cute too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just like the powder the balm did exactly the same and got the results I love . Using the balm and the powder are an amazing duo . Benefit never lets me down

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Hoola Wave Bronzing Balm and it’s quickly become one of my go-to products. It’s super easy to apply and blends out really nicely for a natural, sun-kissed look. I love that it’s buildable, so I can go light or add more if I want a deeper bronze. It feels lightweight on the skin and doesn’t look greasy or patchy. I wore it all day and it seriously didn’t budge—no smudging, no fading, even after being outside in the heat. Plus, it’s waterproof and sweatproof, which is a huge win for me. Bonus: it doesn’t clog my pores. If you’re into cream bronzers that last, this one’s definitely worth checking out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging of this compact powder is very colorful and striking, it has an easy-to-open box and with a unique floral design, it is long-lasting, its matte finish leaves your skin very thin, its texture is soft and silky, the ingredients that compose it are of good quality and excellent reputation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in love with this formula. It is so good reminds me of the Chanel bronzer! The color is perfect, it melts into the skin, it’s also a good dupe for the makeup by mario cream bronzer. This product is the best! I just wish the packaging was different as it gets very messy this packaging is more for a powder formula than a cream.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved this bronzer! I hadn’t tried one in this format (balm rather than powder) before, but found it much better for my dry skin. It blended well with other makeup. The packaging is cute and sleek, and there’s a mirror inside!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Bronzer is creamy silky of warm tone that offers with a small amount a perfect crop, to add a touch of tan in the areas that we want to highlight, this formula blends effortlessly for a soft and matte finish. Its packaging is elegant compact with a mirror, it is ideal for touch-ups anywhere.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved this bronzing balm. It applied smoothly and didn’t not cake on. I do wish it came with its on application but that’s minor. There is no scent which I prefer in my makeup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing bronzer. Blends perfect and has an amazing texture. Doesn’t have a smell and is in the cutest sleek packaging. Love the way it looks on my skin!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging was extremely cute, it was easy to blend into my skin. Very soft and light weight . No harsh smells . It felt me with a great finishing. Definitely added this to my make up routine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bronzing balm is easy to apply and doesn't budge. I think I needed to go a little lighter, but I still really like it and will purchase in a lighter shade. It doesn't feel tacky and it's easy to blend, so you can control how deep you want the color to be. It really is waterproof and I had to use actual makeup remover to take it off. It didn't bother my sensitive skin, which is huge. I also love the packaging, it's a cute, lightweight little compact with a mirror for easy application on the go.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the packaging with a mirror. The formula is creamy and buildable, not so strong but it does the work. It does feel lightweight. I have been using it for my night outs makeup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This packaging was so cute and has a cute message when you open it. Product has a cream texture when is easy to blend in with ease. I also love that it comes with a mirror to take it to go. I don’t really use bronzer but I do like this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the packaging since it comes with a mirror! I will say it’s easy to blend but I wish the color pay off was a bit more pigmented. However you can never go wrong with benefit bronzer they know how to do it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bronzing balm is so lightweight on the skin and really adds nice color to the face. If you’re going for a natural look this is perfect alone, but it also lays beautifully with powder on top to set it! I’ll be using this a lot this summer!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not usually big on bronzers since I’m fair and it’s hard to find a color that looks natural but gave this one a try. Once I first swatches it I wasn’t sure of the color since it kinda pulls orange/yellow but once I blended it out it looked more natural! Besides the color the formula surprised me! I thought the balm would stay tacky but it definitely dried down pretty matte but the finish was natural and looked diffused not patchy. I’ll be using this in the summer maybe not year round because I wish the shade was a bit cooler but I think the formula would be great for warm weather too! I have photos attached but Influenster wouldn’t let me upload the image I had of it swatched and blended on my skin for some reason but I found the color looked a little lighter on my skin than the pan. [I received this product in exchange for my honest review]

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Hoola Wave Bronzing Balm, and I have a lot to say about it! The texture is super smooth and creamy, making it effortless to blend into the skin. It has a balm-like consistency that melts beautifully, creating a natural, sun-kissed look. Unlike some cream bronzers that feel sticky or heavy, this one feels lightweight and comfortable on the skin. One of my favorite things about this bronzer is how seamlessly it blends. Whether applied with a brush, sponge, or even fingers, it diffuses nicely without leaving harsh lines. It layers well over foundation without disturbing the base and can be built up for a more intense bronzed effect. The shade is a warm, golden bronze with a natural-looking undertone not too orange or muddy. It complements a variety of skin tones and gives that effortless, just-back-from-vacation glow. The finish is a soft matte with a hint of radiance, making the skin look healthy and fresh rather than flat or dry. The staying power is impressive! It lasts throughout the day without fading or getting patchy. Even on warmer days, it holds up well without feeling greasy or slipping off the skin. The packaging is sleek and compact, making it easy to carry in a makeup bag. It’s sturdy and practical, though I would love to see a mirror included for on-the-go touch-ups. Final Thoughts Overall, the Hoola Wave Bronzing Balm is a fantastic addition to any makeup routine. It’s beginner-friendly, blends like a dream, and provides a gorgeous, natural-looking warmth to the skin. If you love cream bronzers or are looking for a new go-to, this one is definitely worth trying! Now let’s talk about the bronzing brush! Overall , I like it! It’s super soft and dense, which makes it feel really nice on the skin. I don’t think it picks up a ton of the bronzing balm, but it still applies the product smoothly and evenly. Plus, it’s versatile enough to use with other cream or powder products too. A solid brush, especially if you’re looking for something multipurpos

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good product! I was worried that it would be too dark at first but it’s sheer enough that it worked out. I like that it’s buildable and it doesn’t have a strong scent. I’ll be using it this summer!
