You Could Spend Hours in the Sun, or You Could Get a New Bronzer

The Nars Bronzing Powder ($36) is a cult classic for a reason. It magically looks good on a wide range of skin tones and has a very light shimmer that illuminates the face without looking glittery.

This Chantecaille Radiance Gel Bronzer ($44) is buildable and sweatproof, aka everything we've ever dreamed of.

Yes, the Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer ($9, originally $15) is matte and buildable and blends seamlessly, but you'll want it just because it smells amazing.

If you're looking for a natural, nontoxic option, the RMS Beauty Buriti Bronzer ($28) gives the kind of lit-from-within glow we only dream about.

First of all, this Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer ($50) is insanely pretty. I mean, just look at it. But also, it works. The powder is milled so finely, it's like wearing a filter IRL.

If you prefer your makeup matte, we recommend this NYX Matte Bronzer ($9).

This Milk Makeup Matte Bronzer ($24) literally glides right on.

Don't head to the beach without your Urban Decay Beached Bronzer ($30).

The Milani Baked Bronzer ($9) is crazy pigmented and crazy shimmery.
