Contour might be a relatively recent development in the beauty industry, but that doesn’t mean that bronzing products are less up to scratch than other cosmetics that have been around for longer. There are tonnes of stellar bronzers out there, in fact, it’s actually sometimes quite tricky to pick between them. But don’t panic, below we’ve listed our top bronzers of all time, to get you that perfect contour and glow.
We can almost sense you rolling your eyes reading this, because, of course Benefit‘s “Hoola Bronzer” would be at the top of our list. We know people go on about this one all the time, and you’re probably sick of hearing about it, but that’s because it’s the best, ok. It hasn’t won all those awards for nothing.

This cosmetics line (by Rihanna herself) does not disappoint when it comes to the contour department. A glossy stick that is multi-use depending on the shade, you can use Fenty’s “Matte Skinstick” for contouring and concealing purposes. This is so exciting, as, just like the communal wish of having your fave shoes in every colour, you can literally make this stick work for your every beauty need, without having to constantly test out new products. Plus they’re magnetic, so you can stick them to anything. Wow.

This super-soft designer bronzing powder is a dream come true. It may be pricey, but with a great big glossy compact full of an airbrush finish matte powder that looks great in one brush stroke, we think our bank accounts might just stretch.

We love NARS makeup for a whole host of reasons: their blusher, their setting powder, but let’s be real, their bronzer is nothing short of divine. With a gorgeous shimmer, this product is perfect for a warm contour and keeping up your natural tanned glow even when you’ve got a full face of makeup on.

The selection of luxurious products and glam packaging we get from Charlotte Tilbury means that this brand is always pretty high up on our makeup list, regardless of the product (Let’s not lie, packaging is the deal-breaker every time) and the brand’s “Filmstar Bronze and Glow” palette does not fail to meet our expectations. With a gold Hollywood-esque case, and glittery sculpt and highlight powder sections, we’re more than happy with our choice with this one.
