Shift into weightless, sunkissed warmth—like your skin in golden-hour light.

Founder's Note

“The texture of these bronzers that we developed is truly unique—they feel soft and light, like silk. They melt right into the skin like a cream, then set weightlessly like a powder.”

— Sasha

    Feels light on the skin!

    I love how it applied smoothly on my skin after using my foundation. It blends smoothly on my skin and does not look cakey, orangey or patchy throughout the day. It has a creamy texture but feels comfortable on skin. My face looks glowy and sunkissed without looking overdone.

    I have received the product for free from PinchMe inexchange of an honest review.

    Great bronzer!!

    I received Ilia’s Sunshift Cream Bronzer in shade Rise from PINCHme for free in exchange for my honest review. This bronzer goes on my skin so smoothly. I definitely looked sunkissed. This bronzer was very easy to apply and blend into my makeup. My cheekbones were popping with this bronzer and a little goes a long way! I also used it as eyeshadow as well! It gave a warm glow to my eyes. My picture shows one side with foundation and the bronzer on my cheekbone and eyelid. The other side is just foundation.

    Great Bronzer!

    I am new to bronzer, however I love this! It is a cream base, which for me is lasting longer than others I've used. I use mine subtle, but it works amazing paired with my Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint! I used a brush and it goes on so nice, and you can also use your finger in a pinch. So far I'm in love! It gives the perfect glow for my finished look.

    Great "sun kissed" coverage

    I love the creamy consistency of this bronzer. It gave me minimal coverage of my freckles, yet still achieving a natural "sun kissed" glow.
