It’s honestly just as good.”

Faye told heat that she’s a big fan of liquid makeup, from highlighter to bronzer and blush. And her favourite?

The TOWIE star uses the Huda beauty cream contour stick for her everyday filming look. She told heat, “I’ll put it on my cheekbones as a sort of bronzer.” The product comes in 32 different shades, so it’s great for finding the one that suits you best. The formula is also waterproof and comes in a diamond shape so it’s ideal for precision.

India told heat that she uses Chanel’s creamy bronzer for a summery glowy look. The formula is lightweight and super blendable, so it’s perfect for creating a sunkissed bronze.

Hailey revealed in a Valentine’s Day date night video that she uses Milk’s bronzer stick in shaked baked to create a chiselled look.

The product comes in four different shades for you to choose from.

Zoë revealed that she uses the Nudestix bronzing stick in shade Sunkissed during a YouTube video. The Nudestix cream bronzer is perfect for a healthy glow, being a product that melts right into the skin. It’s blendable and even comes dual-ended with a removable blending brush.
