If you want to appear sun-kissed, apply a bronzer as well. This is mostly used during the night makeup. You must avoid using this during the day, because of poor lightening. Only large and fluffy brush is used for bronzer. Spin the brush in the product, hit the brush so some product comes off and then start with your cheeks. Sweep the brush up and down starting at the outer part of your cheek, working your way in. Repeat on the other side. Then finish with your forehead, chin, and neck.
