So a month and two weeks ago I purchased these bronzing pearls, they come in a nice packaging with a sponge inside, but I wouldn't recommend using the sponge rather a fan brush, I must say they are affordable and very pigmented, they give you a nice sun-kissed and glittery effect but a bit shiny(oily), I love matte a finish so I was very disappointed, Another thing that I didn't like was that the shade is too dark on my skin, that was a big turn off.
