HOW TO APPLY BRONZER STEP 2: CONTOUR
Sweep remaining color on the brush upward onto the forehead in the shape of a “C” and back down the face in a “3”, ending under your jawline. Result: the perfect tan, minus the sun, and plus contouring in all the right places.

WHAT COLOR BRONZER SHOULD I USE?
When choosing your bronzer makeup shade, consider your skin tone. Opt for a color two to four shades darker than your skin tone—light skin will show any mistakes or streaks easily. Therefore, those with light complexions should stick with light, sheer, shimmer-free shades like City Bronzer in 'Light'. Those with medium to deep complexions can get more daring, opt for bolder bronzes, and play with shimmer. But in general, bronzer isn't meant to be a "look"— it's best when you don't notice it at all, and it just looks like your skin.

WHAT COLOR BRONZER SHOULD I USE?
Feel free to apply over foundation or onto bare skin—though makeup artists recommend lightly dusting the face with face powder before, to give bronzer a smooth, even surface to cling onto.
