NARS Punta Cana Bronzing Powder Review & Swatches

Punta Cana

NARS Punta Cana Powder Bronzer ($38.00 for 0.28 oz.) is a darker brown with moderate, warm undertones and fine, gold pearl throughout that gave it a more satin-like finish once applied. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which could be built up to full coverage with less than a second layer.

The texture was soft, smooth, and velvety with some glide to it–it felt more silicone-heavy compared to the brand’s long-time powder bronzer. The powder picked up easily with a brush but was controllable, so sheerer, more buildable coverage could be achieved, and it applied evenly to bare skin and blended out well along the edges. It lasted nicely for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.
