I don't think that you could use Dim as a bronzer, even if you're very pale. It just doesn't have the brown/ caramel tones you need to get a sun-kissed effect. It can add warmth, but it won't make you look like you've been in the sun, if you see what I mean.Are radiant and dim when being used as contour on pale skins, better than using light matte bronzer to contour?
I agree. I'm wearing Dim Light today as an all-over setting powder (although I used MAC blotting powder on my t-zone first). It's no bronzer, and I'm NC25.I don't think that you could use Dim as a bronzer, even if you're very pale. It just doesn't have the brown/ caramel tones you need to get a sun-kissed effect.

May I ask which brush you're using to use it as a setting powder? I may try this with Dim tomorrowI agree. I'm wearing Dim Light today as an all-over setting powder (although I used MAC blotting powder on my t-zone first). It's no bronzer, and I'm NC25.
Illuminated Light is a gorgeous subtle highlight; I think it will get a lot of use.
I wouldn't personally use Radiant as a bronzer; it's too glowy for that. I'm not a fan of sparkly bronzers; natural tans don't glisten.

Okay, thanks! I'm still deciding if I want to add the Ambient brush to my order next weekI haven't received my Ambient Brush yet, so I used my MAC 187.
Thanks! I guess I will just pick diffused light then and normal bronzer for contouring =) Dim would be too dark as all-over.I agree. I'm wearing Dim Light today as an all-over setting powder (although I used MAC blotting powder on my t-zone first). It's no bronzer, and I'm NC25.

congrats!!! How did you get it?I got the ambient palette yesterday and I'm absolutely loving it!! It's so subtle and yet so noticeable at the same time. I mean you can't really go wrong and overboard and it's really subtle but at the same time I can tell the softening effect and I'm really surprised with Radiant light as it's perfect as a bronzer for me, very beautiful.
I got it online in Space NK (UK) and had it sent to my brother who lives in the UK. My parents went to visit my brother so they brought the palette back and I tried it out today! I haven't tried the primer yet but I'll test it out this week.congrats!!! How did you get it?
Try to get a sample of it along with the Mineral Veil primer. I have oily skin and the Immaculate in conjunction with the Mineral Veil primer has been the only combination to keep my oily skin at bay! Granted the coverage isn't full (more medium), I don't mind it at all for everyday wear (I always spot conceal with MAC Full Coverage anyway).I've heard great thing about Immaculate! I want to try that too especially bc of the reviews of it for oily skin.
