Are you completely lost when it comes to makeup brushes? You’re not alone; brushes are definitely one of the most abundant tools in the beauty world. Hundreds of brands have their own and the options are endless.
With a brush targeting every single use possible, it gets very tedious. We’ve all had our fair share of struggle and end up using one single brush for everything. Well, some products can work infinitely better when used with the right brush, and bronzer is definitely one of them.
Your search for the best bronzer brush is about to come to an end! We’ve put them to the test and have come out with these top 10 bronzer brushes out there, let’s see your options…
What To Look For in a Bronzer Brush
Bronzing can be a difficult makeup step to perfect. You want to bronze up your skin tone but you don’t want to end up with a harsh and obvious orange strip across your face. There’s a very thin line between the two…
That’s why it’s necessary to use the right brush to get the right finish. Many people confuse bronzing with contouring, but they are very different. While contouring aims to be very precise, bronzer is something you want to buff in around large portions of your face to bring more color to it. So let’s see how your brush can help you…
- Synthetic Brushes –Synthetic brushes are definitely the best bronzer brushes. The bristles are a lot softer and the brushes are usually denser which is a must. The synthetic bristles are soft but also manage to pick up the most product, so you’re guaranteed to get the most pigmentation out of your bronzer
- Angled –When bronzing you want to apply the product to the outer edges of your face; your cheeks, your jaw and your hairline. Angled brushes work best to apply the product to those areas in a way that applies the most product to the outer edges and blends it inwards. It takes all of the guesswork out of it!
- Density –Bronzer brushes are often going to be denser than others because it’s a step where you want to apply the most. You don’t want to overdo it, but a denser brush will pack on just the right amount of color to give you a bronze goddess look without being overboard.

This synthetic brush comes in a wide shape that is angled. The shape allows you to place this perfectly into the contours of your face to help use your bronzer to blend out your contour. It fits where you need it to but it is wide enough for you be able to blow it out and swipe the product around your face.
It is an extremely dense brush which makes is easier to pack product on but it isn’t too huge so you don’t have to worry about a huge patch of bronzer on your face. It packs on the product in one spot for you to then blend out the product.
What we love most about this brush is that it takes all the work out of blending. This effortlessly blends out your bronzer to avoid any harsh lines or patchiness. A few swipes of this brush is all it takes to get a perfectly blended bronzed face!
Here we have another angled brush option. When it comes to bronzer it truly is all about the angled brushes, they work to distribute product just where you need them to and that is especially true of this one.
Beauty Junkees have created a beautiful synthetic angled brush that has endless uses but is especially perfect for bronzer. The bristles pick up the right amount of product. If you’re into more of an intense bronze than these bristles can also have a lot of product packed on to them and will still apply seamlessly.
The brush has specifically been created to avoid any splaying, there’s nothing worse than ending up with dozens of tiny brush hairs all over your face! Built to last, this brush will apply your bronzer beautifully and effortlessly.
Lastly, we have a brush that is very different to the rest. Ecotools’ Domed Bronzer Brush is a much wider and rounder brush. Ecotools is a brand known for their cruelty free and organic products, and that shines through in the quality of their brushes.
The brush features incredibly soft, hand cut bristles that pick up product perfectly. As with the previous brushes, this brush also picks up a balanced amount of product to avoid overdoing it.
While this brush is not angled, the shape still is ideal for bronzing. Its only downfall is that it can be a little harder to work with if you have a smaller shape as it is rather big. However, it does allow you to blend very easily so if you make any mistakes with this, you can easily correct them!
