Top Bronzers to Help You Get That Summer Glow...

Unless you're super confident or having a tan done by a professional - applying fake tan to the face can end in streaks, patches and almost certainly tears.

The best alternative is the bronzer, a cheat fake tan that can be applied to the face, namely cheek area, as liberal or sparingly as you like to achieve the light glow or heavily tanned face depending on what look you're going for.

It helps you to build up the colour on your face depending on how tanned you are or would like to be.

No matter your budget or your complexion we hope to have a bronzer here for you.

A sun shimmer like this Rimmel is a great way to get an even coverage of colour without having to go over the top on the cheek bones. Lightly dust a brush over the compact and cover the face. You'll end up with a great shimmer that will add to your look particularly on a night out. Bargain for around £5.

The Honey Broze Brilliance from the Body Shop is ace. It comes with its own brush, quick and simple to apply and easy to carry around without fear of it cracking all over your bag and other cosmetics. We think it's easy application brush makes it a winner! Only £16.

Mac is a great make for cosmetics. You know you're getting quality with their products. This bronzer is around £17, but well worth the investment if looking after your skin is as important to you as it looking good.

If you're unsure as to what wouls suit your complexion a dual bronzer such as this one from L'Oreal is a great idea. It helps you to build up the colour on your face depending on how tanned you are or would like to be. For around £10, the options you have with this little pack are invaluable.

If you're looking for a bronzer that is kind to your skin then Clinque is a sound choice. Their Almost Bronzer is a powder that lightly covers the skin giving it a sun-kissed feel without it looking or feeling too heavy on the skin. If you do have sensative skin, then using a lighter powder and a soft applicating brush should help to reduce any irratation you may feel. Only £20.

Treat yourself with a Jean Paul Gautier bronzer to top up your tan or to give yourself a healthy glow. It may be pricey at £30, but it's most definitely worth it.
