What is bronzer?
A bronzer is the make-up product that gives your skin a warm, sun-kissed glow in a few simple steps. Like if you just came back from a sunny holiday, but without the UV rays. It is usually a few shades darker than your own skin and can come in powder, cream or stick form. Ideal for giving your face just a little more colour and life. Read more >

What is the difference between bronzer and contour?
You often hear people confuse bronzer and contour, but there is indeed a difference. With bronzer you add warmth and colour to your face, while with contour you apply shadows to shape your face. Contour products are often cooler in colour and are used to define your jawline or nose, for example. Bronzer, on the other hand, is applied where the sun would naturally hit your face - for that fresh, sun-kissed look.
Which bronzer colour suits you?
A common mistake is choosing a shade that is too dark or too orange. Which bronzer colour suits you depends on your undertone. Do you have a cool undertone? Then go for a bronzer with a pink or taupe undertone. Is your skin warmer? Then a golden brown or peachy bronzer will work best. Not sure? Then you can always test whether a colour makes your face look radiant or flat.
Which bronzer suits me?
Still in doubt about which bronzer suits me? Then look not only at your skin tone, but also at the type of finish you like. Do you like a natural glow? Then choose a bronzer with a subtle shimmer. Do you prefer matt? Then a matt bronzer powder is the right choice.
How and where to apply bronzer?
Now that you have chosen the right colour, of course you want to know how bronzer application works best. A common technique is the '3' shape. By this we mean that you apply bronzer from your temples, through your cheekbones to your jawline - as if you were drawing a big '3' on the side of your face. These are exactly the places where applying bronzer will give you that beautiful sunkissed glow, and you can also subtly include the bridge of your nose and chin for an extra natural look. Make sure you blend well: a soft transition is the key to a beautiful finish.
Which brush should you use for bronzer?
Choose a large, fluffy brush with soft bristles. This will allow you to apply the powder evenly without streaking or smudging. Tap excess powder off your brush before you start and work in light, circular motions.
