MILK Make-Up Matte Bronzer, £20.50

Laura Mercier Sun Kissed Veil Bronzer, £28.50

One for those on the paler end of the spectrum, Laura Mercier’s new illuminating bronzer is a balmy texture that can be applied everywhere for a luminous finish – think cheekbones, lids, cupids bow and the décolletage.

Guerlain Terracotta Bronzer in Hestia Island, £49

Guerlain’s iconic bronzers are somewhat of a collector’s item. While they’re expensive, you’ll find one lasts you for years on end as you only ever need a light dusting to amp up a lacklustre complexion. It even smells like summer too – that’s right, this powder smells of fresh ylang-ylang and orange blossom, which gives this weighty palette even more luxe kudos.

Whether you want to keep it subtle or go for full on bronze, Drunk Elephant’s drops allow you to tailor your hue accordingly, no matter your skin tone. Add one to two drops to your go-to serum or moisturiser for an all-over sunshiny glow or take it up a notch with four drops for a finish that’s a bit deeper.
