i don't know how long it's been in my wish list. i kept postponing to buy because i have to pre order it via online shop and the price is higher than if you bought it yourself, and second, because of the size. i wanted to buy the mini size but it's sold out every time i check. so... since pandemic, i didn't check makeup news so i didn't know that they only have the mini size now. and then i found out that sephora australia has milk makeup! i thought only the US has milk makeup. so, when my brother was about to go home from australia, i asked him to buy me one and finally it's in my hand now. i'm thrilled!

descriptions on the box
right: shade name on top |
the packaging: it comes in white box with description at the back and shade name on top. the bronzer stick comes in white plastic tube with double transparent cap, one exactly on top of the stick to cover the dome of the bronzer stick, and the other one to cap the whole stick. i ditched the one on top of the dome though since it's quite troublesome to put it back on and pull it off every time i use it. i hope it won't make it dry quicker though... anyway, the cap is a screw cap one so it's more secure especially if you bring it with you anywhere. i just hope it won't break though. the old bronzer stick was 28 g but the mini size one is just 5,7 g.

the color: there are only 2 shade options, baked and blaze. i bought baked which is lightest one. it works okay for me, even though at first swipe it looks dark on my face, but once blended, it looks okay.

| the additional cap protection on top of the bronzer dome |
the product: the bronzer is stick is creamy enough to use directly on my face and it's quite pigmented that the first swipe looks quite dark. it glides easily on my face. let's hope it doesn't dry much after i ditch the dome cover (like my runa beauty one. it's dried out completely now that it's almost crumble when i use my finger to swipe over it). i can use my finger, my brush or sponge to blend it, but i like brushes more as it's quicker.

the result: once blended, it looks natural. i can really use it as bronzer and contour. however, i never try it as eyeshadow or lip color, so i can't say anything about it. it turns matte once it's set but i still set it with powder anyway. as for longevity, i can't say for sure since i don't use makeup for long now, but i'll keep you updated.

i'm super happy that i finally can try this bronzer. it's been in my wish list forever, so i'm glad that i finally can try it. plus now it comes in mini size, so i hope i can really use it up now. this is my second high end brand that i bought, though my siblings have been kind enough and gifted me those at the end, so i'm glad that they're really worth it. availability is a bit suck as not all sephora carried milk makeup. but you can rejoice if you live in the US as they're widely available there.
