I've never tried anything as good as Laguna hah. Sorry. I'm sure there are nice ones, but for now I'm a Laguna addict!

Some bronzers I use besides Laguna is Benefit's Hoola, MAC Harmony and NYC Sunny :) and these are all matte bronzers just letting you know hehe

Well a cheap one I really like is the NYC one, I think it's called Sunny something-or-other.

I love NYC Color's Bronzing Powder in Sunny. Smooth and blends naturally into the skin.

Hmm, looks like the NYC sunny bronzer is a popular cheap choice - I may also have to try that! haha.

I really like NARS Casino. LAGUNA is a tad lighter. Unless I pack it on it really doesn't show. I also love Chanel soleil tan de Chanel.

I liked Laguna, but it broke me out. [I also liked MAC's Harmony blush for matte bronzers, but sadly - my face reacts to that too, so I reserve that for special occasions I know will be photographed] I've found I absolutely love Bare Minerals Faux Tan or Tarte's Park Avenue Princess Bronzer is nice as well... since Faux Tan is a loose mineral powder, and can get messy - so I use the Tarte one on the go since it's a pressed powder.
I'm not a fan of the TooFaced leopard bronzers because they have a sheen to them... they do look like they'd make nice highlighters for darker skin tones though.
NYC Sunny bronzer turned a bit reddish/orange on my NC30 skin... =(

I love the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil, and the Benefit Hoola. They are both matte and do not appear orange at all.

@Ida I have been wanting to try too faced chocolate soleil. Is it chalky?

Joyce W.
I like too faced chocolate soleil, and i didn't find it to be chalky :) I have their bronzed & beautiful palette in french riviera that includes that & their other shades & i like it!
I like laguna too, but as the other poster mentioned, casino is darker. I'm a HUGE fan of guerlain bronzers - really any of them! Dior ones are very nice too

Theresa T - Not at all. It is so smooth and so easy to blend. I am very pale, so many bronzers look really fake on me, but this one just makes me look healthy :)

I also conquer with Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer. Never was a bronzer kind of gal but I adore it! Very smooth not orange and natural. Also it smells yummy! What's not to love?
