We’ve done blushes, highlighters, foundations
& eyeliners, you name and we have
our favourites all listed for you!
Today we’re going to focus on a makeup product
that’s become a staple very recently in our make-up kit
here in India very recently
because of the beautiful definition and warmth it
leaves behind on our skin - a bronzer!
Our top 5 bronzers work great on
all skin types, have rich formulas but
different consistencies but promise to give you a
goddess-like glow & sculpted cheekbones!
Type ‘DEFINE’ in the comments below for a list of
our drugstore staples, tools &
techniques to apply them with ease!
Let’s talk about the basics - use the number 3
as a guide to apply your bronzer
from the forehead & temples and going down
jawline on both sides of your face. You can
go down the sides of the nose to make it look
thinner and add a slight dusting of
the product on the tip for a sun-kissed effect!
First up, are powders!
I picked this bronzer not just because of the
beautiful glow that it leaves behind but also because
I know how difficult it can be to when you’re trying out a new product.
choose the right shade when you’re trying out
a new product. This particular one
comes in only 3 shades
1 for fair skin, 1 for us dusky girls
and the last one for rich, deeper skin!
It has a slight shimmer in it that is warm toned
so if your foundation is too light you can use
and even skip blush & highlight
because this bronzer does it all!
It comes with a bonus - a beautiful pigmented
highlight and I suggest using a fluffy brush
and blend it in using swiping motions
Can we begin by talking about just how classy
& simple the packaging of this product is?
It comes with a great price point so I think it’s a
great first bronzer to start off with if you’re
new to using this product. That way you invest less,
there is less wastage of product
and you still get a fabulous bronzer that really knows
how to pack a punch! I love matte bronzers because they
can be used for contouring and bronzing
and this particular one is so pigmented it stays
put all day!
It also is completely natural, has SPF 15 and is oil-free!
Blush, highlight & bronzing palettes
are an absolute steal because you get multiple
products at the price of one so
I wanted to throw this versatile product in to show you
just how much you can get out of it at such a good price!
It has 8 good sized pans that
cover cool & warm skin tones contours, setting
powders and even a highlighting shade for
different skin tones! All of these shades
be used as eyeshadows as well because of how
intensely pigmented they are! So grab your
brushes and start experimenting!
Let’s do creams!
Another incredibly travel friendly &
affordable product is this
cream contour stick by nykaa!
I highly recommend starting out with creams
if you’re a beginner just learning
because of how easy they are to use,
their blendability and natural finish!
This formula is also very long wearing
and crease proof so you don’t need to
set it with a powder on top either
Just swipe on the product in the areas you wish to warm up
and use your fingers or a sponge
to blend away the harsh edges!
This product is part of Nykaa’s stick foundation range
as a shade for deeper skin tones, so I’m also
thoroughly impressed with the amount of shades
they actually stock. This list would not be
complete without the addition of a liquid bronzer, of course
I know the product says concealer but you’ll be
amazed at just how many shades are
in this range!
They have everything from colour correctors,
to concealer to bronzers and contour colours,
hence its my go-to combo to conceal & contour!
I use a shade one tone lighter than my skin tone to
highlight the center of my face and go in
with the shade Toffee on the outer perimeters
to contour and bronze!
All of these bronzers have made it to my favourites list
but this liquid concealer is so richly
& long-lasting that it’s definitely
my top pick if you have to fulfil any
of the above makeup needs!
I hope this list will help you begin your
journey into achieving a beautifully
sculpted face with ease! Until next time
stay tuned & stay Glamrs!
