My Bronzing Powders

Hello my beauties!

I hope you are well even though the temperature is trying to kill us!

Anyway, today I will talk to you about bronzing powders, one of my most favourite items ever since I discovered it.

It is something about the healhy glow that sun gives us, which unfortunately it is the exact opposite, that makes us want to have it all year long. But even in summer when we all get some colour, we always try to intensify it! I am telling you. Bronzing Powders are sent to us by the Sun himself!

Below I will show you the ones in my make up case right now and of course my Bronzing Powders Wish List. Let's start.

1. H&M Bronzing Powder, Face and Body Bronzer

This is the bronzer I reach out first every day. It is hard to believe it as it's a low price cosmetic line from a clothes store but it really works. It is not too intense so you can build it up. It has a staying power that wil surprise you and the colour suites every skintone except from the too dark.

I have it for almost a year, I use it every day and as you can see it is like it is brand new. It lasts forever.

I would give it a go if I ere you.

price approx. 6 euros

2. Clinique Superbalanced Powder Bronzer in bronzed 1

The first bronzer I ever got was a Clinique one so when I was sent the new bronzer I was thrilled.

As you can see it is compressed inside and as soon as you twist it, fresh bronzing powder is released in the amount you need for one time.

As the rest Superbalanced line products, this powder claims to mentain the skin's humidity while controling the excess oil.

The only thing you need to take notice is that you have to apply it carefully and with confident motions as it tends to leave patches otherwise.

price approx. 38.50 euros

3. Face of Australia Blush in Terra

A while ago I took part to a Beauty Swap where we were matched to a beauty blogger from all over the world and we would exchange beauty products from our country. My match was Megan from Australia.

Among the things she sent me, view post here, was this gorgeous blush in a sweet pinkish terracota colour.

I love it. It fits perfect my fair medium skintone.

The brush picks up a lot of product so I have to be sure that I tap the brush before starting applying.

4. Gosh Bronzing Shimmer Brush in 102

I think you will all agree with me when I say that a shimmer bronzing powder is essential in our make up bag!

Of course I do not use it everyday but when I am doing a special coctail's night out I put on this powder and the whole bar is at my feet! no kidding.

My sister bought this shimmer bronzing powder from her trip in Ireland and I thank her for that. I have to be careful when applying it though as it is tooooo shimmer and the first time I tried it on I looked like a discoball. But as soon as I got the hand of it I became the Disco Queen!

And as for my Bronzing Powders Wish List?
