Find a bronzer to match your look

Bronzers for the face and body come in a lot of different finishes and mediums, from matte liquids, iridescent powders and even thick creams, so it’s important to choose a bronzer that keeps the end result in mind. Bronzers with minimal or no shimmer give the most natural finish and are best for daytime wear or those who have fine lines and blemishes, says Carreiro, while High-shimmer bronzers are great at night and on the body to add extra drama and bling.

But selecting one is not always that simple either as skin type should also be considered: While pressed powder bronzers work well with all skin tones, explains Carreiro, normal to dry skin types might benefit from a cream formula while very oily or acne prone skin would benefit from a liquid bronzer, though she recommends playing around with products to find the right one for your skin type. Carreiro leaves us with just one last piece of faux glow wisdom: Fair skins look best in sheer, slightly rose or peach-coloured bronzers; medium or olive skins look best in sheer copper, earthy bronzers; and dark skins look best in chocolaty-brown bronzers, says Carreiro.
