Many times on my site, I have shared my deep love for cream bronzers and contours. Don’t get me wrong; I like general base products like foundation and concealer, but I feel that it is when I use cream contour/bronzer that dimension comes back into my skin, and I can see my look beginning to come together.
With that said, today I am going to sit down and tell you all about the best cream contours and bronzers that I have in my collection hat I use endlessly. Many of these, I am sure you will have heard me mention, but that just shows how much I love them.
Rare Beauty Warm Wishes Bronzer.
These days, I am after a product that is quick to apply and easy to buff out. That is mainly because these days I have no more then 15 minutes to get my makeup on in a morning. This Rare Beauty Warm Wishes Bronzer does that for me fantastically. I can apply this on the go, I can buff it in with my fingers, I can use it down my nose and it lasts well all day long. Just a great, simply and yet completely effective formula.

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Cream Bronzer.
I’m not going to lie, the first thing that ever pulled me towards this product was the packaging and how it looked inside the pan. To be honest, the more I think about it, this is certainly a cream bronzer that I find myself going back and using probably more than any other item that I am going to mention. The main reason for that is the beautiful colour of the product which pairs with my undertone absolutely fantastically. This blends with ease, looks fantastic and is incredibly reliable.

Makeup by Mario Soft Sculpt Stick.
You will see as you read this post that most of the items that I am going to mention are bronzers, however this true contouring product really deserved a place. And may I say, this is my number one contouring product. I am always a sucker for products that I can use quickly and, on the go, which is why I find myself reaching for this endlessly. I just think that this is a fantastic formulation which buffs into the skin effortlessly and looks great with all of the other base products that I have previously paired with it.

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand.
It isn’t very often that I go for a contour rather than a bronzer, but if I did, this is a great option. All I have to do is open the product, squeeze ever so slightly and then add a small dot in the area where I need it. My favourite thing about this product is that the tone of the product is beautiful and it blends out ever so lovely. My only issue with this would be the packaging can get pretty messy underneath the cap where you have to twist to access the product, but it certainly isn’t a deal breaker.

Chanel Soleil Tan De Cream Bronzer.
Back when I was first getting into makeup, this was the main cream bronzer on the market. I can remember picking it up at the time and wanting to love it, but the truth was that the original shade (the only shade) that they had on the market was pretty much the same colour as my skin. These days, there is still a very limited selection of three shades available. However, the deepest of the three is ideal for me and I find myself reaching for it endlessly. Because it is so creamy and easy to use, it takes me mere seconds to get it on the skin.
Â
Elf Hydrating Concealer.
This may be a concealer, but I use it as a cream contouring product. I have the shade Deep Olive which is around three shades deeper than my natural skintone and it makes the absolute most perfect contouring item. One of my main reasons why I adore this item is because not only does it bring dimension into the skin, because it is a concealer, it also adds coverage. For me, that is imperative because I have pigmentation damage on my cheeks that I prefer to cover. Plus, this is super cheap and blends into all of my base products with ease.

LYS No Limits Cream Bronzer.
If you guys are like me and you scroll TikTok endlessly, then I am sure you will have seen the LYS No Limits Cream Bronzer. This was first brought to my attention by the makeup influencer that used to douse her face in foundation, Meridith. She would take this bronzer and instantly her pretty flat base would come into focus. This is hard to get here in the UK, but I am so glad that I managed to get my hands on this. It is without a doubt the creamiest product that I am going to mention in this post.
Â
Saie Natural Cream Bronzer.
I will admit that for a long time I was sleeping on the brand Saie. I saw them on the Cult Beauty website and every now and again I would see the off person mentioning the brand on TikTok, however I was never that inclined to try things out by the brand. However, after trying the Super Gel from the brand, I fell in love and realised that I had to try some other items to see if they were too winners. Needless to say, I love this and it blends beautifully into the skin.
As always, I hope you guys enjoyed this post and learning more about some of the best cream contours and bronzers from my collection. There are many more items that I could have spoken about, but these are the products that I think are the best of the best, which I can’t stop reaching for.
Where possible, I will add a link to the items that I have mentioned should you wish to check them out for yourself. I also want to hear from you in the comments below, let me know what some of your favourites are!
