If you’re a fan of bronzer and can’t resist a good blush moment, there’s a new star in town that combines the best of both worlds. Meet blonzer, the ultimate multitasking makeup must-have that combines a bronzer’s warmth with a blush’s vibrant color payoff. The result? A radiant, sun-kissed look that’ll have everyone asking where you just vacationed. Spoiler alert: everything you need to pull off this trend is already in your makeup bag!
What Is Blonzing?
Blonzing is more than a trend—it’s a vibe. It’s about creating that natural, just-back-from-the-beach glow by applying a blonzer to areas where the sun would naturally kiss your face: your cheeks, the bridge of your nose, and your temples. The beauty of this trend lies in its simplicity: no contouring, no harsh lines—just pure, glowy goodness.
While you can always mix your favorite bronzer and blush to DIY the look, brands are making it easier than ever with innovative bronzer hybrids. Game-changers like Huda Beauty, Live Tinted, and e.l.f. Cosmetics have launched products designed to do all the heavy lifting.

Wanna Blonze Like a Pro?
1. Grab Your Blonzer– Whether you’re using a liquid, cream, or powder formula, the technique is the same: effortless and carefree.
2. Apply Where the Sun Hits– Lightly dab or dust the product onto the high points of your face—your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, and even your temples. Blonzing is about mimicking the glow of a sunny day, so keep it soft and natural.
3. Blend to Perfection– Use a fluffy brush, sponge, or even your fingers to blend the product seamlessly into your skin. The goal? A luminous, second-skin effect.
4. Set or Go Dewy– For extra staying power, set your blonzed look with a light dusting of translucent powder. Prefer that fresh, dewy vibe? Lock it in with a luminous setting spray.
