Hello, my fabulous ladies đ
I’m not a makeup aficionado, but I love playing up with lipsticks, eyeliners, blushes, and compacts now and then.
As you know, I have dusky skin, which is damn oily. I get clogged pores whenever I wear heavy makeup, so I save it for special occasions only.
Most of the time, I do not find a matching concealer or a bronzer for my skin shade, and that sucks, to be honest… Either they are strikingly pricey, or the preferred shade isn’t available.
Especially where I live, I rarely find a highlighting or contouring kit that satiates the need for dusky skin tones, especially where I live. And for that reason, I had almost given up on contouring until I found this – SUGAR Contour De Force Mini Bronzer in Taupe Topper, which is a mini bonzer.
I’m going to review it today here, so stay glued to this post. đ

SUGAR Contour De Force Mini Bronzer in Taupe Topper | Review
It comes in 2 shades: 02 Woody Wonder (warm-toned brown) and 01 Taupe Topper (cool-toned brown-gray). These shades are also available in a face palette kit that contains bronzer, blush, and highlighter, which retails for 799/- rupees, but you can purchase an individual mini too.
The shade I’ve got is 01 Taupe Topper which suits my dusky skin. Since I was ordering it online, I looked for online swatches and settled with this particular shade after researching well.
It comes with thick, purple magnet cardboard box packaging with a girl printed on it. SUGAR always slays with its graphics. Since it is a mini bronzer, it is small in size, and it has no smell to it.
Taupe Topper is a cool-toned brown-gray shade that will suit medium to dusky skin tones. Its texture is smooth and soft.
It is well-pigmented and takes 1-2 swipes to show up on my face and beautifully enhance my facial structure.
I pick up the pigments of this bronzer with a light hand as the powder is finely milled. It blends effortlessly onto the skin and gives me a chiseled look.Â
Skin tones darker than MAC NC45 might have to use many swipes to show up on their skin. I use this bronzer for contouring my forehead, jaw, and nose. I top it up above my Maybelline Fit Me Matte Poreless Foundation in the shade Golden Caramel, and it gives me a natural look.
Pros:
- Contains no fragrance
- Free from paraben, mineral oil, nano-ingredients, and D-5
- Attractive packaging
- Finely milled texture
- Blends effortlessly
- Gives a natural look
- Reasonably priced
Cons:Â
- Not really a con, but skin tones darker than NC45 may have a hard time making this bronzer show up on their skin tones

Final Word
This bronzer is just amazing because it restored my faith in contouring! It has a smooth texture and the finely milled powder glides effortlessly on my skin. Wearing it doesn’t make my face cakey nor does it clog pores. It gives a natural look and doesn’t look over the top with makeup. It will suit a majority of skin tones except for very dark skin tones. If you prefer a moderately chiseled look which accentuates facial features naturally, I recommend this bronzer.

Im coming to India in 2 weeks and will make sure to pick some Ty Sugar products. The bronzer looks great for my skin. Im around NC37.

Beautiful review, Mariyam <3 I haven't yet tried any highlighting & contouring product but after reading this post, I am super tempted to give this bronzer a try!!
I haven’t tried their bronzer yet!! But after reading your review might pick one for sure..
I’ve been seeing a lot of reviews of Sugar face makeup products and I am really impressed. With summer here this bronzer seems like the perfect addition to the vanity kit.
