Favourite Bronzers

Hi my lovelies, today's post is about something I love, a lot. Bronzes. I can't get enough of bronzers, they are the finishing touch to most makeup looks. They not only contour the face, but bring warmth and life back to your face. I know a lot of people are scared of looking muddy or orange, but when you've found the right bronzer for your skin tone, you'll wonder how you ever went so long without using one!

I love matte bronzer mostly, with a few exceptions, with The Body Shop highlighting bronzer, which I love! It has rosey/pink shimmers in to which creates the perfect bronzey glow. The Bourjois Maxi Delight bronzer also has a tiny hint of shimmer but nothing to obvious once applied (I've contoured with it before so it's fine) and it really does add a hint of sunshine no matter what the weather outside. I also love this Mac Blush, in Margin, which has a bronzey tone to it, so if you're not into bronzers at all and are a blush girl at heart this could be the route to take if you still want to bring a warm glow to your look.

Now my all time favourites, are matte bronzers. They add a realistic looking tan and contour! What more could you ask for?! I love the honey bronzer from The Body Shop, it comes in a few shades, and as you can see mine is very well loved.
A new addition to my bronzing collection is this Mac one, in Matte Bronze. It looks quite scary when you first see it, very dark and intimidating, but once on and blended, it looks perfect, even on pale skin.

So those are my current top five favourite bronzers, I hope you enjoyed this. What are your faves?
