My Way To Bronze:
When I set out
to achieve my perfect summer bronze the first thing I do is set up a day at the
beach. The night before I exfoliate all over;
when at the beach I go for a dry oil or a continuous spray to help me
achieve a nice healthy color while still protecting me from the sun’s damaging
rays. After my day at the beach it’s all about building, maintaining, and
enhancing that glow. I do this by staying moisturized, using a tan enhancing
oil with golden sparkles. On my face I try to use as little as possible so I stick
with a nice peachy/coral cheek color and a great illuminating highlighter.
