Remember, Bronzers Enhance Instantly!

Applying Loose Bronzer Powder

The key to applying a loose powder bronzer for all over coverage is to use a large fluffy brush. In other words, keep the applicator that may have come with the product for when you might need quick convenient coverage on the go.

Pour a little of your product into the lid of the jar. Dip your brush and then tap it slightly on the end of the jar lid. You can also just lay a paper towel on your counter and tap the brush against the counter to knock off the excess.

Use a light handed technique for the first coat. If you want additional color then reapply to the areas that naturally look a little more tan. For instance, your forehead, cheeks, nose and chin.

Bronzer Perfection

Bronzers are also perfect for using as shading under the chin if you need the appearance of a little lift there.

Simple Tip
It's best to keep your color undiluted. Select a brush and only use it for your bronzer.
