Contouring for deep complexion
Still on a quest for a bronzer or any powder product that can work well on my complexion. This is the low-down:
-skin color: deep/NC50
-interested in trying these products:
-LORAC tanalized (excuse me for the misspelling) bronzer
-MAC Cosmetics natural skin finish in deep dark.
-MAC Cosmetics powder in Refined Deeper Bronze (they sell it at Dillard's)
NARS Multiple bronzer in Rapa Nui
can someone help me with choosing the correct product?

I have looked around as well and have not really found anything dark enough at Sephora. you want the color to be two shades darker than your skin color and that can be difficult when you're already dark-skinned.
Out of everything you wrote down I would say that NARS Rapa Nui and the MAC bronzer in the deepest color MIGHT be ok. Though when I swatched Rapa Nui i came across more red than dark.
However, if you're up to it I would recommend the face contour kit from Sleek make-up for Dark Skin (comes in three shades, light, medium, dark). I have seen people on YouTube use this palette and I think the dark one is deep enough for dark-skinned ladies like ourselves.
Also check out the bronzer from the Cover Girl Queen Collection... I figure since it is formulated with dark-skinned ladies in mind then it might work!
Good Luck!!
