To avoid looking gray in winter without having to use self-tanner, a professional makeup artist has revealed a tip that is super simple to reproduce and really effective. We present to you this tip that you can do with a product that you necessarily already have in your makeup bag.
Every winter, we are in search of looking good, once our summer vacation tan has definitely left us. If you can give yourself radiance using vitamin C facial treatments, they are not enough to have a tanned complexion. And when you don’t want to apply self-tanner on your face, makeup is undoubtedly the best option to banish the gray complexion that makes you look even more tired than you already are.
To avoid bothering with tedious and time-consuming protocols, Kevin Kodra, Global Makeup Artist for the Nudestix brandrevealed a brilliant tip for looking good very easily and with a makeup product that you probably already have at home: use your bronzer like a blush to discreetly warm your complexion. If the tip works with all types of galenic, the makeup artist uses a cream bronzer in the video with which he reveals this tips from pro, a texture that is very easy to blend into the skin that we advise you to try if you are not yet familiar with it. It’s the ideal bronzer to give yourself a healthy glow in winter without self-tanner.

Look good in winter: how to apply your bronzer correctly for a natural result?
First, note that if the makeup artist uses this technique after applying foundation, you can easily adopt it on bare and simply hydrated skin, or even with a much lighter complexion such as after a tinted face cream. Then, as the expert explains in his video, “instead of applying it like a bronzer, just apply it like a blush”. Simply place it on your cheekbones, moving slightly upwards towards the temples, before blending the material with your finger or brush to give you a healthy glow thanks to its warm shade. The makeup artist also advises to make him play the extensions at the forehead level, “just above the eyebrows” and place a dash on the nose. The idea is to perfectly recreate the way the sun hits the skin in order to have the most natural tanning effect.
