Bronzers can be a bit daunting. Who's to say that the clever packaging promising a "sunkissed glow" isn't actually going to impart a little bit of "radioactive orange"? And, what about all those formulas packed with deceptively chunky glitters, which, when worn in daytime, make you look like a pageant queen gone wrong?

Purchasing the perfect formula is absolutely crucial. And, according to Robin Black, renowned makeup artist and founder of the epic makeup site Beauty Is Boring, one woman's "fresh-from-the-Côte d'Azur bronze" could easily be another's "spray tan gone wrong." To help you shop for the best of the best, Robin picked out the best bronzers by skin tone in the following slides. Feel free to chime in with your favourites in the comments!
