What is a cream bronzer?
A cream bronzer is the favourite for a natural, sunkissed look. In this Short Story, you'll discover what exactly a cream bronzer is, how to apply it and which products our Skins Experts say should not be missed. So you can effortlessly create warmth and definition on your face.
What does a cream bronzer do?
A cream bronzer is a bronzing product with a creamy texture, created to add warmth and depth to the face. Unlike powder bronzers, the cream version melts with your skin, giving you a subtle, second-skin effect. Perfect for those who like a natural result, without harsh lines.
Cream bronzers are also perfectly buildable: from a soft glow to a pronounced sculpted look.
How to use cream bronzer?
A cream bronzer is best applied after your foundation or tinted moisturiser, but before powder products. Use your fingers, a brush or a sponge - whatever you feel most comfortable with. Work in gentle, upward strokes to blend the bronzer well with your skin.

The Face Trace Contour Stick from Westman Atelier is a creamy contour stick with a natural matte finish. Thanks to its subtle shade and fine texture, it allows you to apply targeted shadow and blur effortlessly.
Melting Bronze Balm - SIMIHAZE BEAUTY
SIMIHAZE BEAUTY' s Skin Suede Melting Bronze Balm is also popular. This balm feels like a second skin and fades smoothly for a modern, 'effortless' look. The formula is natural and designed as a designer piece - just like the rest of their collection.
Where do you apply cream bronzer?
The most common spots are: just under your cheekbones, along the hairline, on the temples and jawline. This will add texture and warmth to your face. Want an extra sunkissed effect? Then also apply some bronzer on the bridge of your nose and just above your eyebrows.
Skins Experts tip: build up the product gradually and blend well for the most natural result.
