Bronzers and illuminators
Once you have created the flawless finish your canvas is now ready. Add a sweep of bronzer or an illuminator to highlight features like your cheekbones and brow bones.

You’ll be glowing from ear to ear.

Absolutely love bronzing powder! I use the Yardley Stayfast foundation. Best one for my skin type. Also affordable and offers great coverage! BB creams are also good. Garnier’s works best for me. Smells lovely too.

I tend to steer away from Liquid Foundations, they just dont seem to work on my skin. I use Mineral Powder foundation from Avon
