Bronzer is a makeup bag essential in our eyes. No ifs. No buts. No maybes.
Not only can it help you add dimension to the curves and contours of your face, but it can also help you fake a sunkissed glow when you’re stuck in a dull, grey and rainy town. I mean, did we even have a summer?
We love discovering a plethora of types, textures and formats and have tried all the best bronzers on the market. Whether you prefer a liquid, powder or cream bronzer, there’s a formula to suit every skin type.
Although we do love a powder bronzer, they can sometimes look a little cakey. For a more natural makeup look, we prefer using a liquid solution. That’s why we’ve created the ultimate list of all the top liquid bronzers to help you create sexy, sunkissed skin.
How to use liquid bronzer
Before we get into the best solutions, we thought we should just clarify how best to apply liquid bronzer.
First off, you’ll need a makeup brush or a makeup sponge. Depending on the formula and the consistency, you can mix your liquid bronzer with your foundation and blend all over your face for an entire glowy look. Or dispense a small amount on the back of your hand and apply straight over your base makeup using your tool of choice.
Start by blending the liquid bronzer in a 3-shaped motion around the temples, the cheekbones and the jawline. For an extra gorgeous glow, apply the colour across any areas that will naturally catch the sun, such as the bridge of the nose and the forehead.
