Bronzer is used to add warmth and dimension to the face, making the skin appear healthy and flushed.
Purpose of Bronzer
- Adds Warmth: Bronzer creates a sun-kissed glow, enhancing the skin's natural radiance.
- Defines Facial Features: It helps sculpt and define areas like the cheeks, jawline, and forehead, providing dimension.
- Creates a Flushed Look: Bronzer gives the skin a natural, healthy flush, as if you've spent time outdoors.
How to Use Bronzer
Bronzer application is crucial for achieving the desired effect. Here's how it's typically used:
- After Foundation/Face Makeup: Bronzer should be applied after you've completed your base makeup (foundation, concealer, etc.).
- Before Blush: Apply bronzer before you apply blush.
- Target Areas: Focus on the perimeter of the face, including:
- Cheeks
- Jawline
- Edges of the forehead
- Along the sides of the nose
- Using a Brush: Apply bronzer with a makeup brush, ensuring to blend well to avoid harsh lines.
