Blusher and bronzer - they both have their own jobs to do, it all depends on the look you want to create.
Bronzer is used mostly to add a slight tan and can be used for some light contouring. Blusher will add a flushed cheek look. Whatever you use, the aim should be a healthy, subtle glow - no tomatoes or oompa loompas please!
Now when I was growing up I was taught it was one or the other - in that you use bronzer OR blusher. But as always, the times have changed and more and more people are using blush and bronzer together. Makeup Artist Rachael Brook recommends using bronzer just under the cheekbones to lightly contour, with a light sweep across the forehead and a little under the chin. You can then apply blush to the top of the cheekbone.
I confess, I'm still old school. I will only use blusher or bronzer, I never use both together (and if I'm honest I very rarely choose blush over bronzer.). But what about you?
Do you believe you should use blush OR bronzer, or are you a firm believer in using both? Are blush and bronze part of your daily routine, or does your blusher and bronzer use change throughout the year or depending on the occassion?

I use both when I'm putting in effort and just a creme blush for a day to day spruce up!
