JAKARTA - Every time there is a new trend in the world of makeup. Like the latest is suede bronzer, which is a warm and glowing makeup look naturally.

This suede bronzer started to become a makeup trend in April 2026. The famous makeup artist, Christian Briceno said that the suede bronzer gives a matte makeup finish, with a smooth and soft texture.

"Suede bronzer is a bronzer product with an end result between matte and dewy," said Christian, quoted from Bustle, Wednesday, May 6, 2021.

The difference between suede bronzer and regular bronzer lies in the end result, which gives a blurry effect. This final result is perfect for use in humid weather and makes the skin more oily than usual.

"Products that are too dewy will make the skin look clammy and sweaty, while the matte result makes the skin look dull. Suede is the right choice because it is in the middle," he explained.

On normal to oily skin, the result of suede bronzer makeup will make the face look smooth and shiny, without being excessive. As for dry skin, the key is to ensure that the skin is well hydrated before doing the suede bronzer, so that the results will still be stunning.

If you want to apply the suede bronzer trend, then choose a product with a soft or natural matte label, and a blurred finish. This can be seen from the packaging, where if it looks solid, the result tends to be matte, while if it contains shimmer or glitter particles, the result will be more shiny.

In addition to choosing the right product, the application technique is also very important. Christian recommends applying bronzer not in a large amount at once.

"Use bronzer a little at a time, don't use it in large quantities right away," he said.

The right placement of bronzer is on areas that are naturally exposed to sunlight, such as the top of the cheeks, the temples, and a little on the forehead. Then, in order for the bronzer to blend in better, reapply it on the edges of the bronzer area using a clean brush or a damp sponge.

Not only that, if you feel less on the first application, then you can add the next layer. Take the product gently, then pat a little to avoid excess product before applying.
