Who said you have to pay obscene amounts of money on bronzers and contouring powders? Here’s an easy, inexpensive recipe to make some of your own. And it’s completely organic, so there’s at least one product that’s not harming your skin!
A word of caution you might want to consider before you get started with gusto. Use a light hand while using this bronzer.You might think the colour pay off might be light considering the completely natural ingredients. However, be very careful if you don’t want to look like a soldier in combat with camouflage war paint.
What you will need:
- One tbs cinnamon powder (for glow)
- One tsp cocoa powder (for depth and darkness)
- One tsp nutmeg (for sunkissed brown, it it gives off a lovely fragrance and is excellent at keeping pimples at bay)
- Two tsp cornstarch (makes it long-lasting, helps in even application and lightens the look)
- 15 drops of any essential oil (helps in binding the ingredients and hence strictly optional)
Get started:
- Mix all the ingredients except the essential oil in a small bowl.
- Add the essential oil gradually while stirring with a wooden spatula to break all lumps.
- Store in a clean, empty compact jar with a tight lid.
- Dust it under your chin to minimise the appearance of a double chin and to define your jaw line. Apply lightly on your forehead, nose and the apples of your cheek for a sunkissed complexion.
