Bronze It Up




A simple way to create a hot sun-kissed glow for spring summer without the risks of sun damage is a Bronzer, and this season the bronzer is in the spotlight for being used for more than a skin color. Many beauty brands are making bronzers that can be used as eye shadows, eyeliners even on lips and it all looks gorgeous. The bronzer is generally used to add a bit of color traditionally applied to the four main areas of the face where the face would naturally get the most sun exposure the forehead, nose, cheeks and chin, all great areas to add a little depth. The bronzer looks amazing and healthy on the face on its own but adding a bit of bronzer to eye shadows or using it all over the eyelids alone can create a soft summer time smokey eye, using it as a blush or with a blush gives off a dimensional shimmer to the apples of your cheeks. The added benefit in using a bronzer is more than just for the faux sun kissed look is that its cost efficient, one makeup product can be used in so many ways, the bronzer is a staple for every makeup artist I know and have worked with and every women should have one in their makeup bag.
