How to Apply Bronzer

"Now, something that I'm going to show you also is how to apply bronzer. Bronzer is not something you have to do, it's something that's an option and I know a lot of us really like to use it especially in the summer when you want to have that bronze to glow and look like you've been at the beach all day. But it's not something you have to do, it's something you can definitely use year around. You can use it on the face as well as on the body, if you want to give the body a little bit more color, maybe on the shoulders or in the cleavage area. Bronzer is something that I would recommend using either instead of blush or if you do use blush use it after blush and that way you won't end up looking like you have too much color on the skin. The ideal way to apply the bronzer is to take a big nice fluffy brush like this one, that way it avoids the streaky look. If you use a brush that is too small, you're going to end up looking like you have stripes on your face. So just get a little bit and just kind of tap off the excess and we're just going to sweep it across the skin. I like to concentrate it on the areas of the skin where the sun naturally hits if you're outside. So that would be the forehead, maybe just a little bit down on the chin and then you can just use a little bit on the cheekbones, but be very careful here that you're not apply too much. Another quick tip is that you can apply the bronzer just slightly under the blush area and it helps to create a nice hollow to the cheek and it really helps to define your cheekbones. Again, I like to use bronzer sometimes as my last step before I'm stepping out. So do all of your makeup and just add a little bit at the last moment and then you'll be fine and won't have over keel. Don't forget the neck area either, just maybe a little bit on either side. There's a lot of liquid bronzers out there, those are fantastic as well, but for my money I think a powder is much easier to use and much easier to control as well. Fantastic, now she has a bronze healthy glow!"
