Some products incorporate talc into their formulas. This medley sounds good enough to eat, and contributes natural coloring to our bronzers without any of the filling or fluff found in other brands. We add color to our bronzers using natural ingredients like cocoa powder, coffee, and black tea. Our bronzers use mineral mica to give our bronzers that warm, incandescent glow. These synthetic ingredients can irritate the skin, leaving microscopic scratches on skin’s surface that can enhance the appearance of fine lines and aging. Just as we mentioned, some brands (even some natural makeup brands) use synthetic shimmer, often made from plastic, to replicate mineral mica used in our bronzers to give it that natural, skin-like finish.

After hours in the sun, our skin tone is a bit closer to the deeper, warmer shade of our bronzer, and the extra depth is the perfect contrast for a subtle, sultry bronzing contour that makes getting ready in the morning a breeze. In the summertime when our radiance is at its highest, using our bronzer powder as contour makes perfect sense. Contouring generally uses a soft matte powder (1-2) shades darker than the skin tone, usually in a neutral shade to better mimic a shadow that would naturally be cast onto the face. It is a cosmetic way of enhancing features by sculpting and creating shadows for more defined shapes in the face think more prominent cheekbones or a slimmer jawline. As you might know, contouring has grown in popularity in the past few year. Now that we’ve covered bronzer basics, let’s talk about how we can use our bronzer as a natural contour. In place of plastic and synthetic ingredients, we use mica to add a natural glow to our bronzers meaning a purer product and a more natural, organic look to the skin. Often times, the “glow” found in other bronzers is actually synthetic glitter (made from plastic) ground down to a thin powder that can scratch the skin and cause allergic reactions. Many beauty products on the market that do not utilize natural and organic ingredients incorporate synthetic materials into their bronzers. While there are some bronzers on the natural makeup market that have more of a matte finish, we also enjoy natural bronzers that mimic the natural texture of skin.
It adds that natural dimension that we all have without makeup, and a bit of the sun-kissed color usually found around our hairline, on the nose, and on our cheeks. The purpose of bronzer in a beauty routine is to warm up the face. This all-over coverage can make skin look washed out, and feel a bit one-note. After applying foundation and a bit of setting powder, the face can look a little bleh. Just like skin care, a beauty routine is done in steps. If your entire makeup collection consists of mascara and a single red lipstick, you might be wondering what purpose a bronzer can serve.
