Is there one? Other than the obvious colour difference?
My blushers seem too pink for my skin type - but I’ve found a bronzer I love that has a peachy tone, and want to use it as a blusher. That’s okay…?
Re: Difference between blush and bronzer
i use bronzer right under the cheek bone, and blush above that. if your bronzer has peachy tone, you can defintly use it as a blush. the bronzer i use is too dark to be used as blush, so i use it to contour. but any bronzer with peachy or shimmery tones can be used as blush or on top of it.
Re: Difference between blush and bronzer
Ideally, bronzers shouldn't be used to contour as they contain shimmer. The idea of contouring is to create shades or hollows, which are best done with matte 'cool' shades instead of warmer shades that could look oily. Since your bronzer has shimmer in it as well, you can def use it as a blush! Try a mauve, brick red blush maybe?

yes, i never use shimmery bronzer for contour, always use matte for that. but other than matte bronzer, what else can i use for that purpose? its hard to find matte bronzer sometimes

^You can use regular powder in a shade that is a couple of shades darker than your normal colour. I've been using this instead of bronzer as I've had difficulty finding a bronzer that suits my complexion and is not too dark or shimmery. My regular shade is MAC NC15 and I've been using Studio Fix Powder in NC25 as bronzer and for contouring purposes and it's worked out quite well so far.
Re: Difference between blush and bronzer
Contour kits are available, they come in all shades and usually have a highlighter as well. :)

Gina gives the best make up advice 
I am rubbish at make up so have never done the contouring thing before. I don’t know if my bronzer has shimmer in it but I’ve been using it as a blush and it’s loverrrly so thanks!

i have seen anastasiabeverlyhills contouring kit on instagram but not sure how the quality is. i have seen MUA on youtube using MAC one but i havn't seen it in stores, maybe its discontinued or something.

Sleek has one, the Anastasia one is fabulous! NARS also has one as well!
