Tan Gone Right - DIY

A touch of sunshine and a light tan can make you look healthier and slimmer and make you feel sexier. With the use of Bronzer you can achieve that healthy looking glow.

Powder bronzer is suitable for normal to oily skin.

Dab the brush into the color; tap it on the back of your hand in order to remove any excess. Lightly sweep the powder across the areas you would like to bronze. Focus on areas the sun naturally hits your face. Pay special attention to your cheekbones, chin, nose and area around the eyes. Using a circular motion, You should start to apply powder application on the cheek apple and brush on bronzing powder. 

Cream bronzer is suitable for all skin types and especially for dry skin.
