Look sun-kissed all day (and night) long with the secret of a bronzer. Bronzers, unlike blushes, don’t add any color to your look. They add warmth and make the skin look more natural and healthy.
At StyleCraze Product Reviews, you can find some of the best bronzers to complement your runway-ready look.
Do You Need A Bronzer?
Frankly speaking, bronzers have just one function - one very important function - bring sunshine to your face, add a tan-look. It is not essential for your everyday looks. However, if you are going out to a party, if you plan to be under bright lights, bronzers will add ‘life’ to your look. You can add a little color to make your skin look naturally tanned. Bronzer is the difference between a cakey finish and a glamorous look. Bronzers also give you a sculpted look making the high points in your face stand out.
How To Apply Bronzer?
To find the correct bronzer for your skin tone, select a shade that is 2-3 shades darker than your skin tone. (Remember, bronzers are supposed to give you a sunny glow, and we are trying to replicate the effect of the Sun on your skin.) All bronzers have an orange hue and a warm undertone.
There are 4 things to remember while applying bronze:
- A fluffy, dome brush is ideal.
- Pick up the product with the brush and tap off the excess. When it comes to bronzers, less is always better.
- Apply the bronzer on your forehead, your cheekbones, and your jawline in the shape of ‘3’. Imagine a vertical line through the center of your eye and keep the bronzing limited to the outer area of the line.
Just like a highlighter, bronze is applied in the places where the light hits naturally. - Blend, blend, blend. Invest 2-3 minutes in blending your bronzer.
After bronzing, follow with a blush and a highlighter. You can add some bronzer to your collarbones as well.
What Do You Need - A Shimmery or Matte Bronzer?
Bronzers are more available in a shimmer finish. Because this is how naturally healthy skin looks under the Sun. But if you have oily skin, a matte finish may suit you better since you will get a naturally shimmery look within some time. However, even bronzers with shimmery finish do not come with moisturizing properties. If you have non-oily skin and you are going for a bronzer with a shimmery finish, make sure that you prime and moisturize your skin before applying any other makeup.
Most bronzers come in pressed cake form. But if you would rather use a liquid or a stick bronzer, you can find your preferred choice at StyleCraze product reviews. You can browse the top-rated and most frequently used bronzers in India like:
