I lurve my bronzer, I use Este Lauder and have done for years. I use a big brush and put it on face all over, sometimes sweep down neck and decloatage (sp?) if a big night out.

Makes me look awake.

i use a compact..sometimes a streaky one.

not in minter cos im grey at that time of year and it looks a bit odd.

always deepen the colour with a bit of pinky blush.

i love the look of the 'little balls'...all in different pearly shades....but they are a nightmare to contain ...and flee all over thebathroom/car

Northerner · 06/07/2006 09:21

I use it all year round. I use a cheek tint with it but not a powder blush.

nailpolish · 06/07/2006 09:22

cnat get to grips with tints...tried the benefit one...

think aunt sally!

The trick is to use very sparingly and blend blend blend. I love mine, much more natural looking than powder blusher IMO.

When I had a makeover at the Bobbi Brown counter, the makeup artist swept bronzer all over my face and then used a pinkish powder blusher on the apples of my cheeks and it looked really natural. When I'm going out I also put bronzer on any skin that's showing including feet.
