Default Bronzer

Hey I am kind of pale - but not completely

I have blonde hair, blue eyes

I was wondering if it'd be worth me getting bronzer and how to apply it properly?

Thanks.

Yes you could use a bronzer not to dark though.
I use a fan brush with powder bronzer and run it down my face Vertically this way it touches all the high spots on your face as the sun would.

Although I have dark hair & eyes, I do have very pale skin. Most bronzers turn to mud on my skin! LOL
Wet & Wild has a product called "Mega Glow" illuminating powder in a shade called "Catwalk Pink" which is great for paler skintones. It's got strips of shimmery shades of bronze, rose, pink & gold that blend together and give a nice glow without being too dark. I apply it along the jawline, top of the cheekbones, and around the hairline. I like it quite well.

As people have noted, you will need to go through some trial and error to find a bronzer that does not have too strong an effect - and to learn how to apply it correctly. Personally, I have never mastered it so I just go with the pale look.

ok. If I get one do you have any advice on the best ones for quality and price. I don't have much pocket monmey so I don't think I'm willing to spend more than 10 pounds otherwise I will probably stay with a pale look lol

I have really pale skin too, and i found that applying bronzer on after and on top of the blush i put on is best. As well as brushing a little on your forehead and down your nose.

you could try a moisturising self-tan lotion which gradully leaves your skin looking lovely and sun kissed without that orange look. sea salt and honey scrub is supposed to make the face glow also the sun isnt as harmful as people say, it has vitamin D and your skin needs alot of that with a good sun screen you cant go wrong.
