With bronzers, the trick is to go very easy

Many people treat bronzers like a faux tan product. Which is why the skin of those who use them may have a strange tinge that resembles the love child of an extreme case of jaundice and burnt toast. So if you remember nothing else about bronzers, remember this: go easy. The purpose of a bronzer is to warm up your skin so it has a healthy glow – one of Pfeffer Sal’s facials in the run up would help things along – so apply with a light hand. Anything other than a gentle dusting is overkill.
