Bronzer has had a torrid few seasons. Our obsession with adding warmth to our faces seemingly began some time in the mid-to-late Noughties, albeit with a far less nuanced view on application. Back then, it was all about swirling as much powder bronzer onto your brush as possible and caking it on to your entire face with abandon.<\/p>\n

A few years later our bronzer use became (a little) more refined, as Kim Kardashian<\/a> reintroduced the world to an old school makeup technique called contouring. We used cream and powder bronzer to heavily sculpt our cheekbones and slim our jawlines, using deeper shades to change and manipulate the very proportions of our faces.<\/p>\n

Now bronzer application has become far less liberal, as the current less-is-more aesthetic requires only a touch of color to create depth, add glow and subtly contour. Cream bronzer is also now preferred over powder due to its natural finish, making it easy to blend and buff into the complexion for a barely-there effect.<\/p>\n

Here are a few of GRAZIA<\/em>‘s favorite cream bronzers to fake a natural glow, sans sun (and telltale streaks).<\/p>\n
