Building up my Bronzer Stash..

Know what I love almost as much as lipstick? Bronzer! I just love to glow so it’s no surprise that I have a serious addiction to bronzers. From the department store to the drugstore aisles, I can almost always spot a good bronzer that’s begging to join my collection. “Take me home, Fancie. We can glow together!”

Ahhhh, it gets me every time! Over the last month, I’ve managed to add 4 new bronzers to my collection. Did I need them? Like I need a hole in my head. But I just couldn’t resist the opportunity to sport a sunkissed glow that’ll literally last me until the end of days. ‘Cause I’m certainly going to glow into the next lifetime with these new babies! Here’s a quick rundown:

Icing Instinct Bronzer I actually dropped by Icing during my lunch break to find some cute pens for my counter since ours are always going missing. After finding 2 cute pink and Tiffany blue chevron print pens, I noticed a huge table of makeup, brushes and more chilling at the back of the store. I had to check it out! I ended up spotting a shimmering gold bronzer with the most beautiful bamboo imprint. I’m a sucker for pretty prints and a gold glow so I snatched this baby right on up for less than $10.

Guerlain Terracotta 02 Natural Blondes Bronzing Powder I’ve heard soo many great things about Guerlain bronzers but I’ve never wanted to drop the cash on one until I swatched this baby at Sephora. It’s a little orange but I like that a lot because it complements my warm red undertones well and seems to add a nice warmth and sheen. I think it’ll work great as a transition between my contour and blush.

Too Faced Pink Leopard Blushing Bronzer Pink and leopard print?? Gimme! I love all things pink and animal print so it’s no shock that this bronzer caught my eye. I’ve always been drawn to the print but it wasn’t until I finally swatched this baby at work that I knew I had to finally add it to my collection. It reminds me a bit of my new favorite highlight, Wet n Wild Hollywood Boulevard, but it’s a bit darker and has more of a pink tint for a yummy rose gold glow. I cannot wait to try it!

Bobbi Brown Deep Bronzing Powder Finally a bronzer for brown skin! You’d be surprised how hard it still is in 2015 to find a matte bronzer once you’re past NC42. Which is crazy because we like to look bronzed, add definition and warmth to our complexions too. Thank goodness for Bobbi Brown who created a line of wonderful bronzers that work for everyone. I ended up getting one in Deep a little while ago after seeing how well it worked for skin tone. It adds warmth and defines my face like no other. I totally recommend my darker divas to check it out!

    I’m so glad you you made the point about bronzers being hard to find for darker women of color! I’m about an NC35 and still have trouble finding a good matte bronzer. Most of them actually match my skin tone!

    I’m not sure if you’ve tried it yet, but my favorite bronzer right now is the Shea Moisture Illuminating Powder in Mandalay Dusk. I’m an NW50 and it works for me. The only other one I own is Ebony Bronze by CoverGirl, but that is too red for me in the summer, but perfect for winter!

    The leopard print packaging is too cute!! And that bamboo printed one looks crazy shimmery
