Bronzers are like sunshine in a jar.
A subtle golden glow in the cooler
months can add a touch of radiance
and highlight your own beauty.
A strategic and gentle application
will create soft diffused warmth.
Try using a metallic bronze as a soft
liner under your lower lash line. You
can also lightly sweep a dusting of
shimmery shadow on upper lids – but
try not to go above the crease line
with highly metallic shades.
One of our favourite looks is softly
highlighted cheeks. Dust on a powder
bronzer with a fan brush fi rst, then go
over it with either a shimmery cream
blush or another powder blush in a
bright shade.
It’s fi ne to mix textures – creams
can work in tandem with powders if
the application is light. Dab a bit of
shimmer on the top of your cheeks
to instantly brighten and illuminate
your face.
Be sure to choose just one feature
to accentuate, so your shimmer
stays subtle and undetected. It’s all
about slowly building layers of colour,
so avoid heavy application
of metallic shadows!
A nifty highlighter is perfect to
combat dull or dehydrated skin
(especially after work). Dab small
amounts on top of your cheekbone –
from the apple of the cheek and up
through to the hairline. This makes
skin look hydrated while the diffused
light decreases the look of fi ne lines.
Also use small amounts on the inner
corner of the eye to add freshness and
under brow bone to lift the eye.
Accentuate your cheekbones by
applying a bronzer under them, to
create a more sculpted look.
Bronze all over in all the spots the
sun would touch (if we’d let it!). Do
it in a number 33 pattern – forehead
then under cheekbones then down
to the jaw line and fi nally under the
chin for sculpting.
