LORAC TANtalizing Baked Bronzer & Blush for Summer 2009

If you must carry one gem in your summer makeup bag, right next to your plush, fluffy bronzing brush, make it LORAC TANtalizer Face/Body Baked Bronzing Powder ($30). The bronze and the glow that you get from this pressed pan is simply luxe! Pressed = no mess and it even comes with it’s own mini brush in case you forget your own and with a mirror. Total utility! Apply it to the tops of your cheeks and your shoulders, collarbone, or any other place you want a luxe, sun-kissed glow. Hello, sexy.

For a satiny, matte hint of color on the cheekbones over TANtalizer Bronzing Powder, pick up LORAC Matte Satin Baked Blush in Exposed ($24) (a peachy color that looks HOT on dark skin as well, by the way) or Velvet Rope, which is more of a pinky shade. Matte Satin Baked Blush goes on smooth and flawlessly and has the perfect level of pigment.
