my bronzers

my bronzer collections. christian dior terra bella sun powder in 744 light tan. clarins bronzing powder duo in 01. the body shop tinted bronzing powder in 02.

they were 10+ years old. maybe close to 20. they're probably discontinued or repackaged since i can't find any info from official websites.

can you tell which was my very first bronzing powder purchase?

i'm not a fan of the healthy tan sunkissed look. but growing up in australia i was all about healthy tan look as teenager. it was till my later uni years when i had less outdoor activities and skin got paler i got quite a few compliments that i looked better.

i bought my first bronzer for the senior dinner. i was told that it enhances my healthy skin. i used it religiously. i think i looked hidious with it all over my face but i didn't realize that.

nowadays i use bronzers to contour the cheekbone for a more dramatic look. or used as blush for a natural no-makeup look.

I sometimes use my bronzer as just a natural blush. I put it on the apples of my cheek instead of under the cheekbone. It really isn't as bad as it sounds! It just adds a bit of color.

@linda, i did the same too!

@tricia, yes it's good for natural looks. i just can't use it as how bronzers are designed to be used.
