YOU CAN'T SCROLL the over-50 beauty feeds of TikTok or Instagram without seeing an influencer applying bronzing drops. They're like sunshine in a bottle, providing an instant just-back-from-vacation look without you ever having left your home. Best of all, they are incredibly easy to use. Here, beauty pros share why you want to consider using bronzing drops, the ones that work best for mature skin and the simple way to add them to your beauty routine.
WHAT EXACTLY ARE BRONZING DROPS?
Like instant self-tanner, bronzing drops are concentrated liquid bronzer designed to give your skin a subtle, temporary sun-kissed glow. They can be added to moisturizers, foundations or sunscreen that go on the skin before you apply the rest of your makeup, says celebrity makeup artist Monika Blunder. "By mimicking the appearance of a natural tan, the bronze hue deepens overall skin tone by a couple of shades, providing radiant, healthy-looking color to the complexion without the need for sun exposure." And unlike self-tanner, it washes off at the end of the day! Bonus? They're not just for the face. You can also mix the drops with body lotion to give skin anywhere on the body a gorgeous glow.
