About this deal

The main difference between selecting a bronzing product to look tanned and one to define and contour? For Caroline, it’s all down to the shade you go for. ‘If you want to look as if you’ve been in a sunnier climate, choose two or three shades darker and warmer than your natural skin colour,’ she says.‘To contour, you’ll want a colour that is darker but cooler in tone, to mimic the shadows of your bone structure.’ Fair or Light Skin Tones: “Opt for lighter hues of rose or peach, and consider beige taupe and pink rather than orange and red tones,” notes James, who suggests imagining how your skin reacts in the sun, then mimic similar results with your bronzer. There’s something so universally flattering about summer’s dreamy, almost iridescent light on the skin. But, as we Brits know only too well, sunshine and warmth are things we can’t always count on. We can, however, rely on the latest generation of bronzers – which have had something of an upgrade in recent years – to bring a little of this light into our makeup bags. I know that not every brand is Fenty Beauty and can have 50+ shades of foundation and seven shades of bronzer. Still, I'd like to think that Milk Makeup could probably have more than three shades of bronzer. The three shades run the spectrum of light, medium, and deep, and the formula's versatility allows you to manipulate them. However, I can't get past the feeling that there needs to be more in the medium-deep range, and even one on the lighter side of the spectrum, if I'm being frank.

According to dermatologists, ingredients such as vitamin C, retinol, and peptides may all boost your skin's anti-aging abilities, so those are a bonus to find in any cosmetic product. Additionally, a bronzer that contains ingredients that hydrate, such as hyaluronic acid or glycerin, will not only keep skin in better shape while you're wearing it, it'll help prevent your makeup from looking overly dry on your face.

Harold James is a Paris-based editorial and celebrity makeup artist and is represented by The Wall Group. Bronzer is my desert island product. You know when someone's like, "if you could only use ONE product for the rest of your life, what would it be?" Bronzer is that for me (or maybe a brow pencil, but for the sake of this review, we won't debate.)

While many ‘dew it all’ formulas have built-in luminosity, a separate liquid highlighter applied to the tops of the cheekbones adds an even more multidimensional sheen and subtly enhances bone structure. ‘Bring your look together by using your bronzer or highlighter on your eyes as well,’ says Mali Thomas, the global artist in residence for Bobbi Brown.

Beyond powders, balms and creams create a juicy sheen, while refreshing gels and liquids are just the thing for hot summer skin – they’re sheer, yet buildable, and offer seamless blending. Modern bronzers also create a healthy glow in more ways than one. The best formulas are now supercharged with skincare ingredients, too, such as plumping hyaluronic acid and protective antioxidants. ‘Not only is your skin getting a natural-looking bronzed glow,’ says Milk Makeup director of artistry Sara Wren, ‘but it’ll look smoother and more hydrated, too.’ Yes, bronzers are an excellent way to give your skin that gorgeous, summery warmth,’ says makeup artist Caroline Barnes. ‘You’ll find them in cream, powder or liquid (think gel or oil) textures and as well as adding a glow, they’re great for giving your face dimension, enhancing and defining your bone structure.’ For any content that you submit, you grant Space NK a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable right and license to use, copy, modify, delete in its entirety, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from and/or sell and/or distribute such content and/or incorporate such content into any form, medium or technology throughout the world without compensation to you. Take into consideration your undertone—this could be cool, warm, or neutral,” says Ono. “To figure out your undertone, look at your veins on your arm: if they are blueish, you have a cool undertone; if they are more green, you’re warmer; and if you can’t really determine which shade you are, you’re more likely a neutral undertone,” she says. Take a look at the ingredients list. Is it infused with moisturizing ingredients? Many formulas on this list, including the options from Westman Atelier, Rare Beauty, and EM Cosmetics, tapped skincare-quality ingredients for their formulas. Hydrating squalane, berryflux vita and jojoba seed oil help the bronzer melt into the skin easily, while also offering a natural, skin-like look.

Neutral Undertones : According to Ono, more neutral tones should opt for a color that is a true brown-base.

Amanda has a clever rule of thumb that makes contouring easier, too. To sculpt and help define your bone structure, ‘Think of the number three,’ she says. ‘Use one continuous motion to create a “3” shape on each side of your face. Start at the top of the forehead; bring the bronzer down to curve under your cheekbone; finish the number by nestling the bronzer under your jawline to help define it.’It doesn’t read as pearl or glitter, there’s no sparkle, but it just gives you a nice, healthy glow. Do you know how the Glossier Solar Paint liquid bronzer leaves you with a natural sheen? This finish is a lot like that but a little glowier.

Liquid formulas lend themselves to being buildable, which makes good on that promise. With a light hand, it's easy to get a super sheer wash of color, never being too much too soon. Still, you can add more and layer to your ideal healthy bronze glow.
