How to choose the right brush for bronzing

In a perfect world, every beauty product would come with the appropriate application tool. This is especially true of bronzer. Since the goal is to mimic the way your skin would glow thanks to a bit of sun exposure, the brush you choose makes a difference.

When applying bronzer, use a fluffy, dome-shaped brush with flexible bristles. If the bristles are too dense or the brush head is too small, you'll get streaks of color. Super-soft brushes aren't the best for blending, either, because they splay out and spread the color too widely.

Once you've selected the right brush, apply bronzer to your temples, upper forehead and the tops of your cheekbones. After you've blended everything in, blend it once more for good measure.

Materials
- Bronzing powder
- Dome-shaped bronzing brush

Instructions
1. Gently swirl the brush head in the bronzing powder, then tap the brush handle against the product lid to remove excess powder.

2. Sweep and swirl the brush against your cheek in a diagonal angle from the top of your ear toward your mouth. Tip: Don't apply bronzer too close to your mouth. Stop when you reach the apple of your cheek.

If your bronzer isn't dark enough, apply a second layer. Building up the pigment is easier than removing it.
