Collection: BRONZER

What is Bronzer in Makeup?

Bronzer is a makeup product that adds a sun kissed glow and gives dimension to your face. It usually comes in powder, liquid and creamy forms that are a few shades darker than your complexion. If your skin looks flat and pale after applying a foundation, bronzer helps to define, sharpen, and sculpt your facial structure by creating the illusion of shadow. It makes your feature pop up naturally- Cheekbone, jawline, nose, chin and forehead. Just a few swipes can transform your look.

Where to Apply Bronzer Makeup?

If you want to achieve a natural tan look, firstly, you need to understand where you should apply the bronzer makeup. As a rule of thumb, bronzer should be applied where the sun’s natural light hits on your face, and creating an illusion of natural tan.

Forehead

Begin from the top. Apply bronzer on the edges of your forehead and into the temples. This soft frame gives the appearance of a naturally tanned face. This helps to make your face slimmer and balanced.

Jawline

Want more definition? Apply bronzer along your jawline. Blend it gently down to your neck to avoid a visible neckline. This helps to create a more sculpted look and minimise the appearance of double chin.

Bridge of the Nose

Dust it down the bridge of your nose for a sun kissed look. This area needs, light hand and don’t overdo.

Neck & Collarbone

Dust bronzer to the collarbone and the top of your shoulder. Applying bronzer makeup on the neck and collarbone areas enhances the look when you wear something off the shoulder.

Tips to Pick the Right Bronzer Shade for Your Skin Tone

The right bronzer shade can take your makeup to another level, adding a sun-kissed glow and sculpted definition to your skin. But if you choose the wrong tone, your face can look muddy or dull. The key? Match your bronzer to your actual complexion — not too light, not too dark.
For fair skin, opt for light bronzers with a honey toned or light beige-browns. These warm shades won't take over your face. Stay away from anything too orange or deep — a subtle glow is all you need.
Gold bronzer or copper-toned bronzers are great for medium and tan skin types. They draw out your natural warmth and complement your undertones without looking ashy or too bold.
If you have a deep complexion, look for rich terracotta, warm mahogany, or cinnamon-based bronzers. These darker shades give definition, enhance your natural depth and glow.
A rule of thumb for everyone: go for 1–2 shades deeper than your natural skin tone. This ensures your bronzer looks natural, blends well, and enhances your features rather than overpowering them.

BLENDING: Blend in a circular motion to avoid any harsh lines, and make sure there’s no visible line from your bronzer to your foundation.
