Found a bronzer for us pale girls!

OK well I've been searching for a bronzer that won't make me look orange now that my tan has faded. I'm using Johnson's holiday skin moisturiser every couple of days though to take the day glow white tone off of my skin so still need a little light bronzer.

I emailed my cousin as she has faily light skin and she said she uses MAC Golden bronzer. Now, I used to use this two years ago with Studio Tech but decided it was too glittery for my skin so I packed it away in box full of many unused make up items! I got it out again last night and used it over my Revlon liquid foundation and it looks gorgeous!! The only explanation I can think of is that it just looked more glittery with the Studio Tech...

So I have my winter bronzer and will be purchasing it again once I run out! Just thought I'd share with all my fellow pale ladies!

Have you tryed Lancome Star Bronzer ?- you mix it with moisterizer - it works really well on pale skin and is not orange.

Re: Found a bronzer for us pale girls!

Agostina1 - yeah I have a lancome bronzer in a huge compact but I just use it for a body bronzer as it's way too orange for me.

becky - I've tested the makeup and it's turned out to be naff so I end up putting it in a box ready for swaps, but it is more or less unused. The MAC one doesnt look shimmery or glittery - but it did when I wore it with Studio Tech which is a bit strange! But over my Revlon it looks lovely

Nessicle - Yes, I know what you mean about the Lancome compact bronzer but, the Lancome Star Bronzer is in a tube (it came out last year) - it's a cream you mix with your moisterizer - my friend (who's British and very pale) turned me on to it. Try it at the counter and see what you think - then let me know if it works for you.

I'm glad you've found something that works!

If I ever run out of the bronzer I have now, I'll be sure to check out the MAC one. Sounds nice.

Thanks hun, I don't tend to wear anything like cream bronzer or cream blusher because I have quite oily skin and tend to wear a medium coverage foundation on a daily basis but this sounds like it would be gorgeous on my holiday next year so will defo check it out! Thank you!

Re: Found a bronzer for us pale girls!

You can't be that pale Nessicle :P especially if your skin tans and if Johnson holiday skin moisturiser actually looks natural on you. I applied that stuff once and I was orange! I very light orange, but still orange, definitley not brown.
I'm over it, who says I have to tanned to be attractive? Guna go work on my pale... :P

Re: Found a bronzer for us pale girls!

Cargo Bronzer in their palest shade,Light, is the best bronzer I've ever used. Even gives my deathly pale skin some color! I think it gives an amazing light fake tan to paler girls.
