Sometimes, a girl just wants to step out looking like a bronzed goddess.
And that girl can be you, so the question here is, what is stopping you? Now, I know in the beauty industry the amount of bronzers to choose from can be quite terrifying. Especially if you are new into this and are still figuring out what works for you.
It is even more difficult when you find something that you really like but it is out of your budget. And rumor has it that you have been deleting NARS Laguna Bronzer from your cart.
So I decided to put together 7 Best NARS Laguna Bronzer dupes for you!
Original Product: NARS Laguna Bronzer

Behold! It is the bronzer of the runways and beach days!
This bronzer has been in the limelight for so long for several reasons. But to name the most important one- its tone. We were tired of the subtle warm, and even orange-y (what a sin) bronzers, when NARS gifted the world this.
This is a dark, cool toned bronzer that perfectly flatters a wide range of complexions. Most people fear cool toned bronzers to look quite flat. But the Laguna bronzer is very unique as it does not make your appearance look flat or dull.
And it lasts through the day amazingly! But I know you are wondering about the dupes, so keep reading!

01. theBalm Bahama Mama Bronzer
- Tone: Pulls Cool Toned Neutral
- Finish: Matte
- Benefits: Sunkissed Appearance; Blendable; Long-Lasting
No bronzer list will ever be complete without theBalm Bahama Mama bronzer.
Now you may ask, that this is matte, so how will it be an alternative to NARS Laguna bronzer? Because the NARS one is shimmery. Here is why- just like NARS, it compliments the same range of skin tones without looking ashy.
It pulls a cool toned neutral shade, which actually is quite universally flattering, if you ask me. It lasts just as long and blends like butter. So good!
And need I say, it is much cheaper than NARS Laguna bronzer?
02. Milani Illuminating Face Powder
- Shade: Hermosa Rose
- Tone: Cool Neutral
- Finish: Luminous
- Benefits: Lightweight Texture; Multi-Tasking
Okay, I know what is on your mind.
A face powder? That is right! This is one multi-tasking product, mind you. You can use it as a blush, face powder or even highlighter! But based on your complexion, you have the liberty to make it your bronzer on-the-go!
The cool neutral shade is a tad subtler than NARS. But if you want that luminous finish like NARS Laguna bronzer, pick this.
I cannot wait for you to enjoy its soft, lightweight texture. And the price only makes it better!
03. L’Oreal Paris Cosmetics True Match Lumi Bronze It
- Shade: Deep
- Tone: Cool Neutral
- Finish: Luminous
- Benefits: Multi-Dimensional; Healthy Glow
Want to look like you just came back from the beach every day?
Then get this! For a multi-dimensional, healthy glow, this is what you need. Remember NARS Laguna bronzer’s shimmery finish? Similar to that, it has a lovely satiny finish that will perfect your complexion.
This will really help enhance the dimensions of your face. And it is super easy to apply and effortless to wear. The price is as amazing as the product!
04. Burt’s Bees 100% Natural Origin Blush with Vitamin E
- Shade: Toasted Cinnamon
- Tone: Cool Toned
- Finish: Radiant
- Benefits: Nourishing Vitamin E; Lightweight Texture
In my opinion, this is as good as a NARS Laguna bronzer dupe can get!
From the shade, undertone to the finish- they can be considered twins. This bronzer is cool toned and has a radiant finish that will have you looking gorgeous. The lightweight texture helps it blend right into your skin like some soft sunlight seeping into the room.
I will not have you say no to this! I recommend this to anyone who even owns the NARS blush, honestly. Why would you say no to its nourishing, vitamin E goodness?
05. Maybelline New York City Bronzer Powder Makeup
- Shade: 300
- Tone: Cool Neutral
- Finish: Satin Matte
- Benefits: Sculpting; Cocoa Butter Infused
The name is perfect. It really is the city bronzer- perfect for the daily city life.
The shade match is a little lighter than NARS, yes. But it has enough features to be a NARS Laguna bronzer dupe. Its soft, satin matte finish will give you an evenly sculpted look every day. NARS’ finish may be a little overwhelming at times, but this will not fail you.
On top of that, it is infused with cocoa butter which makes it feel healthy and nourishing. And need I say, it is budget-friendly?
06. NYX Professional Makeup HD Blush
- Shade: Taupe
- Tone: Cool Toned
- Finish: Velvet Matte
- Benefits: Sculpting; Pigmented
Some products really are Jacks of all trades.
This is technically a blush, but for most skin tones, it can easily be a bronzer! Similar to NARS Laguna bronzer, it is cool toned, and adds a taupe-y shade to your features. The finish is not shimmery but a lovely velvet matte. Who would say no to that?
If you are familiar with NYX’s products, you would buy this right away. Because the quality you get for the price is incomparable. So why not let this pigmented bronzer sculpt your pretty face?
07. Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Bronzing Powder
- Tone: Warm
- Finish: Satin Matte
- Benefits: Blendable; Contours
This one is an honorable mention. Because the heavens would not forget me if I ended a bronzer discussion without mentioning Hoola. It has been the bronzer of the past decade, and continues to be so.
If you want a bronzer that is lighter but feels just as expensive as NARS, get it today! Like NARS Laguna bronzer, this will make you feel luxuriously tanned. The price is a tad bit lower than NARS, so that is nice too!
Dense of Fluffy: Pick the Right Bronzer Brush
No matter how good your bronzer is, if you do not pick the right brush, it is all a waste.
Now, that does not mean that you have to buy expensive brushes like Tom Ford. You just have to pick the right kind regardless of the brand.
- Fluffy Brush: For a soft tanned look, go for a fluffy brush! This will help evenly spread out the warmth to give you a fresh, tanned look. Fluffy brushes are amazing to achieve the soft dimension you want to add to your face!
- Semi-Dense Brush: A semi-dense brush will help subtly sculpt your features besides bronzing your complexion. This is great for the days where you want to have a little edge to your features.
- Dense Brush: This will be best for looking all contoured and sharp. Dense brushes allow you to contour your structure with a bronzer. This means you will not need separate contour products!
Conclusion
Bronzer is personally one of my favorite steps in makeup. It really helps enhance your features in the most flattering way. And for that, you do not always have to spend hundreds. I hope this article helps you believe that!
These were some of the Best NARS Laguna bronzer dupes, and I am so excited for you to try them!
