What to Consider When Choosing a Bronzer
When it comes to choosing the right bronzer, be mindful of your skin tone and skin type. Ultimately, your skin tone will dictate the shade of bronzer that is best suited to your complexion and your skin type will decide whether a cream or powder bronzer will work best with how your skin behaves.
A cream-based bronzer is best suited to those with drier skin as it can cheat a radiance that some dry skin types lack. Likewise, a powder bronzer is best suited to people with oily skin as it can help mattify your face.
As for choosing the perfect shade of bronzer, choose one that is one or two shades darker than your natural skin tone. If you have cool toned skin, choose a cooler toned bronzer, similarly if you have warm toned skin, choose a bronzer with warmer undertones to avoid making your complexion look ashy. For a faux glow that illuminates your face to make it look healthy, glowing and gorgeous, choose a bronzer that doesn’t have a high concentration of shimmer as this can really date your makeup and can make your face look excessively shiny.
It is best to apply bronzer using a blending brush, or a domed fluffy brush (depending on the formulation you are using). Concentrate on the high points of your face such as your forehead, cheeks and the bridge of your nose for a natural glow.
