Fenty Beauty I$land Ting Sun Stalk’r Bronzer Review & Swatches

I$land Ting

Fenty Beauty I$land Ting Sun Stalk’r Instant Warmth Bronzer ($30.00 for 0.22 oz.) is a medium brown with strong, warm yellow undertones and a matte finish. The pigmentation was mostly opaque, though not quite opaque but not sheer enough that I’d call it buildable (which was how it was marketed). The powder had a smooth, velvety texture that was soft without being too powdery, and while it was firmer in the pan, I had no trouble picking up product with a brush. It applied evenly to my skin, diffused well, and blended nicely along the edges. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me before fading slightly.

Formula Overview

$30.00/0.22 oz. – $136.36 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "long-wear" that is "transfer-resistant," "easy to blend, and "light-as-air" with buildable coverage that "is hard to overdo." The pigmentation was more medium to semi-opaque with some shades being nearly opaque in a single layer. For truly buildable pigmentation, I would recommend using a light hand initially or a less-dense brush to pick up and to apply the product.

The texture was lightweight, thin, and finely-milled without being too powdery, which did make it easier to control to build up coverage. Some shades were more blendable than others but none were difficult to work with. As these had a true matte finish, I wouldn’t apply them over wet or still-drying foundation as that tends to make matte, powder products harder to apply and can also cause them to darken/look patchy. They applied similarly over bare skin (I’m normal-to-dry) as they did over foundation that was lightly set with powder.

They lasted between eight and nine hours on me, and it didn’t seem prone to transferring if I just dabbed at it with a napkin (transfer-resistant on a powder was an odd claim to see).
