Re: Bronzer question?
Hi emmy2410, I dont know where your problem might be, you might be a little more specific about what you are doing to give us a better idea.
without knowning anything further, I'd say either you have a sensitivity to an ingredient in the bronzer or it has nothing to do with the bronzer at all and could be related to your skin only.
you might try applying a finishing powder or zinc powder before the bronzer to act as a barrier between the two, if indeed it is the bronzer that us causing you the problems. you need to allow your moisturizer to mostly (or completely) dry (depending on preference) before applying. Typically, just before my face is dry from my creams/serums, etc I apply the zinc powder to be my sun block, this is first always, then if I want, I apply foundation, otherwise, if I am not wearing foundation that day, I'll apply my bronzer (both beach bunny and tahiti sweetie) then blush.
so try some other applications to see if it helps at all. the zinc powder is great for helping sooth the skin, so you get two benefits if you use this one as a primer, 1) a sun block, and 2) skin soother.

Re: Bronzer question?
hi la
sorry for the late reply. I think maybe my skin is abit sensitive. I find that this pimply thing happens when i just apply perfecting powder or bronzer straight on my face after moisturiser and let the moisty absorbs into my skin 1st....Thats when the skin reacts. I will try out ur tips about applying zinc powder than the bronzer. C how it goes.
Thanks dearie for your advice, really appreciate it.
