bronzer.

How do you use them? And what effect do they give? Which one would you recommend? I’ve got a slight tan on my face but I feel adding blusher to my face will look a bit off. So thought maybe I should use a bronzer? Sorry for the dumbness of this post?

Re: bronzer.

they scare me :bummer: …i dnt think i’d ever be daring enuff in makeup to try it on, atleast not by myself! :frowning:

Re: bronzer.

I use two products as bronzer. MAC MSF natural in dark and MAC bronzer in bronze.

I’m NC30. The MSF gives a tan glow and really smooths out the cheeks (I use it with the 187) but unlike bronzer it doesn’t have so much shimmer. I use it for contouring as well. Then I use bronzer on top on my cheeks only for more prominent colour and contouring.

It gives a great warm glow, especially for summer. I generally use the same routine below my daily peach-pink blush as well. I don’t like my cheeks to be too peach/pink and this makes the flush of the blusher much more natural.

I actually think bronzer can look much better on more tan skin tones, it’s just about finding the right shade for yourself.

I tell you what I’m scared of: contouring. I already have a small face, I don’t want to make it any smaller. :snooty:

Re: bronzer.

^You don't need to contour. Not every face needs contouring.
