Probably an incredibly stupid question....

Please can someone who understands this stuff tell me where bronzer is supposed to go? If it's where the sun would hit the face (ie the bony bits) then it's the nose and also cheekbones. But I thought cheekbones where were blush was supposed to go and nose was a good place for highlighter. The whole thing is a mystery to me.

I just use a big fluffy brush and lightly brush it all over my face

I am not very experienced with bronzer but dust it lightly on my cheeks, nose, and temples in towards edge of forehead. I also use a big fluffy brush. Bronzer goes on last after blush and setting powder.

Watch a few make up tutorials on YouTube.

Hannah Martin is very good.

Lisa Eldridge too.

And at the moment I’m liking Alexandria Garza too.

Basically it’s top of forehead, temples, lightly over blush, nose and neck. It puts a bit of subtle warmth and colour into your face, especially if you’re wearing a full face of concealer/foundation/powder.

You can also use it in the summer, lightly dusted onto collar bones cleavage and shoulders, for a subtle glow.

Many thanks everyone. Think will check out some online tutorials. I have a cream bronzer (Trinny one) so will need to do with fingers....
