Black, Brown, or Bronze?

Black, Brown, or Bronze?
Posted By: Daniel Moss on April 06, 2006


So lately I've noticed that a lot of these beauty manufacturers are marketing "Bronzers". Can anybody tell me what the big deal is about "Bronzing" oils AND, do WE actually buy these products? Black women, help me out on this one.

Yea, we use bronzers to give our skin a 'glow'....not to make us darker or anything, kind of like a toner.

I have seen alot of the bronzer products to and alot of black women are using it now. It basically brightens up your sking just to give your face glow. It's great for women who dont really care for make-up. MAC bronzer is great for women of color.

i heard of them bronzers, i didnt know black women actually used the stuff, that's news to me, aren't we all ready tan? Why do we need to set a toner to our skin when there is no need? white females ya i can see that happening, but not us.

I use it to bring a glow but that's really only when I go out. It's really big here in wisconsin among the teens and mac has really good products.
