If you are whiter than white....
Do you wear bronzer?
When I used to go tanning (back in my ballroom days - I tanned all the time) I used to wear bronzer.
But now my skin is soooo pale that I feel bronzer looks ridiculous on me.
Anyone with lily white skin use a bronzer that looks natural?
Thanks!

Re: If you are whiter than white....
I don't even understand the purpose of bronzer... Do you use it on your face instead of blush? But than the body is different from the face, no? See, i am confused...

I have ivory skin. I don't use anything. I've always wanted to try bronzer but haven't taken the plunge yet.

Re: If you are whiter than white....
i use one coat of the jergens lotion with tanner in it. it looks very natural and just makes me look alive
i use a bronzer-ish thing as blush, not to change my skin color
i will say that when my sis was getting ready to go out for her 21st her very pale friend covered her entire body in bronzer and looked VERY tan. i was blown away watching her do it

Re: If you are whiter than white....
I wear bronzer to give my face some 'umph' .....but I don't use that self tanner stuff b/c I'm too pale and it always looks fake on me

Re: If you are whiter than white....
I use it. I tried it years ago & always felt I looked dirty-esp. Benefit Hoola.
I took trying a few kinds & a few brushes.
Physicians Formula makes a few lighter ones & they go on pretty sheer. I like the Organic wear ones.
I use a fan brush for a light application.
I also like Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse bronzer & Almay Smart shade cream bronzer, but I have to use them sparingly.
I use them on my cheeks bones, alone or blush, just for a warmer look & to emphasize my cheeks bones.
I am not trying to look a different color. I don't tan or use self tanner.

I do for special occasions. I put it where the sun would normally hit...little on nose, cheekbones, forehead, and always my decollete.

I do this with my everyday make-up routine. I use the Nars Laguna/Orgasmic bronzer duo. I love it bc its so natural looking.

Re: If you are whiter than white....
Is Georgia Peach by BeneFit a good choice?
I have a great MAC bronzer, but I used it when I was SO dark from tanning that people would think that I was hispanic!!! Yes - ME!!!

Re: If you are whiter than white....
Never.
I'm fair. That's the way it is.
If I started to try and put bronzer on it would look like the pale girl that put bronzer on. It's ridiculous for me to do that. I would look like a jackasss.

I think Dallas might work better. Georgia Peach is more of a blush.
The brushes that come with their powders is a little awkward, for me. I prefer their
fantail brush

Re: If you are whiter than white....
I wear bronzer when I'm not in a hurry and I am actually taking my time putting my makeup on .. which is rare these days since I started waking up for work recently between 5 and 5:30

Re: If you are whiter than white....
I rememberd today that I also have Bare Minerals soft Focus warmth & that is good & subtle. I used it today , even though I don't do the whole complete bare minerals thing anymore, I still use this as brozer soemtimes.
The regular warmth made me look dirty.

Never! I love my pale white skin!
Makeup people always try to put bronzer on me when I get my makeup done and it looks so funny!

Hey.. that's my line!!!
No tanning, no fake tan.
Bronzer a bit on the face just because it makes me look a bit more "healthy" and "Summery".
