Get a jumpstart on summer with this new bronzer

A few weeks ago I started craving a new bronzer. I’ve been using It Cosmetics’ Sunshine in a Compact for quite some time, and the matte, natural-looking color has treated me well. But with that said, I decided it’s time to step up my radiance game. Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was fate, but just then It Cosmetics’ latest launch, Confidence in Your Glow, arrived on my doorstep.

Essentially a bronzer, blush and highlighter all rolled into one, this ombre compact warms up your complexion in just one step. You can swirl your brush over the entire pan—or focus on the individual hues if you want to be more precise with your color application—but regardless of your approach you’re guaranteed to get a healthy glow and an almost airbrushed finish.

More than just color, this talc-free skin-brightening powder is infused with vitamin C and other anti-aging ingredients, and the three available shades are designed to work with all skin tones. My favorite, “Instant Nude Glow,” is the most subtle of the batch, while “Instant Natural Glow” serves up more rosiness. The deepest shade, “Instant Warm Glow,” features a peachy-pink and the most color payoff, so I’ll be saving this one for during and after my trip to St. Maarten in June when I actually have a tan. The countdown is on!

P.S. It Cosmetics’ Friends and Family is going on right now (through April 28)! Enjoy 25% off orders over $30 and free ground shipping with the code FRIENDS2017—but this event only happens twice a year so don’t miss it!
