Bronzers…Better Then the Sun!

The sun is starting to come out and I do not know about you but all I want to do is play in the sun and get a tan! I know what you are thinking that it is not good for your skin or safe to out in the sun for a long amount of time. But when the sun comes out that is all I want to do!

Well the best alternative I know to being out in the sun is a good bronzer that makes you look like you have been out in the sun. A good bronzer can give you that sun kissed look with out doing any damage to your skin. I love my bronzer and I could not live with out it! I use it as a blush and then I use it all over my face to add a little extra color. Bronzers come in all different colors so you just have to find the right match for you!

If you do not have a bronzer I recommend you go out and find your self a good one. Not only will your skin look amazing but it will also look great for years to come!

Bronzers and Highlighters

How do bronzers and highlighters work? They each serve there own purpose. Bronzers are used to give your skin a sun touched look. You apply bronzer anywhere you want to have the appearance you were kissed by the sun. This includes your forehead, the tip of your nose, and your cheeks. I use my bronzer as a blush because it gives me a sun kissed look along with defining my cheek bones.

Highlighters are used to downplay shadows and darker areas of the face. Areas of your face that appear darker include under your eyes, under your chin and even at the top of your eye lids. Highlighters come in a liquid form and powder form. I prefer the liquid form for under my eyes because I think it provides better coverage. You will have to try them for yourself to see what works best for you.

Highlighters and bronzers are great because you can pretty much apply them anywhere on your face. You can use shiny highlighters and bronzers or matte, which ever you prefer. Usually for older women they prefer matte powders because it helps hide the signs of aging. Shiny powders are usually worn by younger girls going for an extra glow look.

Next time you are experimenting with bronzers and highlighters be sure to keep these application tips in mind.
