I’m so excited to be reviewing a Natasha Denona product- especially the bronze & glow palette that I’ve had my eye on for a while. Read on to find out what I thought.
Packaging
I mean, it’s adorable. The duo is housed in a tiny tin compact complete with a cute little mirror and two pans of product inside.
Price
The Natasha Denona mini duos retail for £16 each in the UK for 4g of product. These are obviously super tiny and don’t contain a lot of product but I think minis are a fantastic way to try a pricey brand and I think it’s great that ND released these minis.
Bronze & Glow Swatches
The duo comes with one highlighter (glow extreme) shade and one bronzey blush shade. Now, this is referred to a blush and it definitely has a slight pink tone but the product is called Mini Bronze & Glow so I have also tried it out as a bronzer. The highlight is more glittery than I usually like but it doesn’t appear like that on the skin.
Application
So as I said, the highlighter looks quite glittery but it applies really smooth on the skin. It’s not the kind of highlighter I typically reach for but I think it’s nice to have a glittery option that I know isn’t going to leave me with chunks of glitter all over my face or look too textured on my skin.
The blush shade is quite subtle on me- I’d be interested to see how it looks on a deeper skintone. It is pretty I think for certain looks but not a shade I would use all the time. As a bronzer, I can make it work but it pulls ever so slightly pinky so I definitely prefer it as a blush.
Do you need this?
If you want to try Natasha Denona, I think £16 is a decent price for this product. If you like glittery highlights and bronzey-toned blush and you’re around my skintone, this would be perfect for you. Personally, I don’t regret picking this up at all but I think it will be more useful for me when travelling or carrying around in a handbag rather than in my everyday makeup.

These are definitely my tones, I love glitter highlighters but it’s hard to find smooth ones! I’ll have to check this out

I don’t mind glitter but a lot of them end up just leaving glitter trails on my face so I do like this one for not doing that 😅 it’s so tiny but I’m glad I got to try it out
