Radiant skin definition? Check! Sun-kissed glow? Check! Chizzled Cheeks? Doble Check!

We can all agree that mastering the art of apllying a bronzer is a battle (that we’ll win in 2020), but picking the right bronzer for your skin tone and undertone is the tricky part. The transformation and feeling that we get after applying a good bronzer is the reason why it is a necessity in our beauty collection.

While we were in the lab, testing and trying our favourite products for the Cosmo Beauty awards – an evening made amazing by FOREO Middle East and Dyson Hair – our beauty team decided that in no particular order, these are the best investments in everyone’s beauty bag.

Sephora, Bronzing Powder

This is the perfect product to use when you’re trying to achieve a “no-makeup makeup look”. It blends so well and easily into the skin that you can fool anyone into thinking that you woke up like that. Dhs85 on Sephora.

Bobbi Brown, Bronzing Powder

This bronzer is the secret to your favourite celebs chizzled cheeks, it is perfect balance of red and brown tones. The powder looks sheer, which seems scary, but I’m here to let you know that the finish is as matte and dewy. Dhs220 on Ounass.

Becca, Sunlit Bronzer

WARNING: This product is heavily pigmented. This is definitely a sheer, matte bronzer. It only takes one application to look like you were photoshopped into your body. Dhs183 on Sephora.

Guerlain, Women’s Terracotta Light

This product was launch in 1984 (don’t do the maths, you probably weren’t born yet) and it remains legendary. It smells divine and the powder is flecked with fine gold microparticles. The consistency of this product is out of this world. I’m obsessed! Dhs263 on Sephora.
