Bronzer should be applied to the areas of your face where the sun naturally hits to create a warm, sun-kissed glow. The key spots to apply bronzer are:
- The top of the forehead along the hairline
- The bridge of the nose
- The tops of the cheeks (cheekbones)
- The chin and neck (optional)
- Temples and brow bone
- Cupid's bow and eyelids can also be lightly dusted for added warmth
The goal is to add warmth and dimension, not to cover the entire face or create harsh lines. Use a large, fluffy bronzing brush and apply with light, swirling motions, blending well to avoid streaks or patchiness. For a natural effect, focus more bronzer on the cheeks and blend out towards the hairline and temples
. Additionally, bronzer can be used to subtly sculpt the face, such as contouring the nose by applying it in a small V-shape along the sides to make the nose appear slimmer
. In summary, bronzer goes on the high points of the face where the sun would naturally tan-forehead, nose, cheeks, temples, and sometimes chin and neck-to give a healthy, radiant glow
