Tips and Advice About Bronzers

1. Bronzer Tanning Lotion

Bronzers are an excellent makeup tool for women on the go. Apply a bronzer tanning lotion sparingly around hairline and eyebrows. Wash the bronzer off your hands with soap and water immediately and avoid contact with clothing until the bronzer is dry. Wait one hour before bathing or swimming. A sunless tan develops in two to four hours and lasts for days. Reapply the bronzer as needed to maintain or deepen color.

2. Sunless Tanner and Bronzer

Get a healthy-looking glow instantly with a sunless tanner and bronzer. A sheer bronzer provides a hint of immediate, temporary, natural--looking color. A good bronzer allows you to see where you've applied it to help eliminate mistakes. A sunless tanner and bronzer looks and fades like a real tan. Some bronzers are oil-free and absorb and dry in less than 5 minutes.

3. Pressed Powder Bronzer

Use a pressed powder bronzer for a lightly-toasted look. Wet the powder bronzer and it transforms into a sheer cream that glides on to add intense color to eyes, lips, and face. For a sun-kissed sheen, dab a small bit of bronzer powder on your forehead, chin and nose. Make sure it doesn't look like a stripe. You can also apply a bronzer to your shoulders and neckline to warm up your skin and enhance a tan. Bronzers are perfect for year-round sun-kissed radiance. Some bronzers have an herbal or floral scent and a light sunscreen.

4. Deep Tanning Bronzer

Some bronzers instantly provide a deep, rich, robust tan. These bronzers are designed for people who want to darken their existing tan dramatically and contain coffee bean extracts. Quality bronzers are enriched with Vitamins E and C to help minimize fine lines and wrinkles. Some bronzers contain sunscreens, some don't.

5. Aerosol Bronzers

Bronzers come in pressed powder, liquid or aerosol form. An aerosol bronzer is lightweight and oil free, contains vitamins and botanicals, and can be applied over foundation or used alone. An aerosol bronzer can create an instant airbrushed radiance.

The Secrets to Self-Tanning

Exfoliate your skin before applying self tanners. Colosé has formulated a product called body scrub which contains little sandgrains that quickly and gently remove dead skin cells, leaving your skin feeling like silk. For your face we suggest using a face mask such as Colosé Clarifying Mask. It will remove all dead skin cells.

Apply the self tanner when your pores are closed. Warm water tends to open pores so you should not apply a self tanning product immediately following a bath or shower.

For an even all over tan, apply a light moisturizer prior to the self tanner. Our moisturinzing milks are excellent for this and you can choose one specific to your skin type. Pay special attention to elbows, knees, ankles, feet and neck.

To prevent streaking, apply the tanner or bronzer in a circular motion. If you notice streaks, apply a mist of water to the area and blend the product to correct.

Cover dark spots or sunspots, eyebrows and hairline with some petroleum jelly to prevent darkening.

To achieve a unified base color all over, do this procedure three days in a row.
