The weather is heating up and the sun will be blazing soon enough
But we all know how damaging the sun's rays can be
I've got the perfect trick to bring that warm, sun-kissed glow to your skin
Bronzer is just the thing to add that little touch of summertime to your face
There are oodles of bronzers available, but a while back, I found these easy recipes for a
Do It Yourself Homemade Bronzer
You will need: (Try to opt for organic ingredients if possible)
- Cocoa Powder
- Cornstarch
- Ground Cinnamon
- Ground Nutmeg
- Plain body lotion or moisturizer
- Containers that can be sealed. You can find cute sifter jars at some beauty stores.
- Squeeze bottles for the liquid version. Available at beauty supply stores.
Begin by combining small amounts of the powders; cocoa powder, cornstarch, cinnamon and/or nutmeg, until you achieve the color you want.
Try adding just a little of each until you find the desired shade.
The cocoa powder will deepen the color, cinnamon provides a nice glow and the cornstarch will lighten. Be wary of the cinnamon as it may affect sensitive skin.
Once you have the color mixed just right, place it in the container and you will have your powder bronzer. Use a fluffy brush or buffing brush to apply.
Add some body lotion to the powders to create a liquid version of the bronzer. Be sure to mix well. It is best to let the powders fully absorb the liquid and then stir it again.
Place it into an empty squeeze bottle.
That's it!! Super easy, super natural and super amazing!
