Finding Your Perfect Bronzer

If your skin is fair, try a pink-tinted shade if you have cool undertones, or a peachy one if your skin is on the warmer side. Dolce and Gabbana, VS Makeup, St.Tropez, and Chanel have great bronzing powders for fair skin.        If your skin is medium, try earthy tones for a subtly tanned look, or a coppery- tinged shade for a more dramatic radiance. Nyx, Avon, Clarins, and The Body Shop hace good Bronzing powders and gels for medium skin.               If your skin is dark, try richer colors, like dark cocoa or deep golden brown, to make your bronze look natural yet noticeable. Clinique, Nars, Black Opal, and Dr. Hauschka Skin Care have good powders for dark skin.             Choosing the Best One: Get the right color bronzer. It should always be a little darker then your skin tone. Then pick your finish. Cream, liquid, or gel gives a dewy look, and powder has a matte effect, says celeb makeup artist Gita Bass.   Apply like a pro: Use a brush. A big bronzer one works for powders and a foundation brush is best to precisely paint on gel or cream. Put it on before doing your eyes and lips. It could effect your color choices, says Bass. Take it up a notch. Add a flush. After bronzing, blend brush onto the apples of your cheeks. Increase luminosity. Put shimmery highlighter onto the tops of your cheekbones, says Bass. We hope you like our bronzing tips!     xoxo- Lauren and Olivia
