It's the time of year again where girls like me wanna have a golden/bronze glowing skin. first off, i haven't had time to go tanning outdoors yet (nor wanna do that excessively nor go to tanning salons for obvious reasons), thus i'm in the process of doing my "fake bake" routine. (don't worry, i don't look orange ) for body, i use Dior's self tanning lotion, which comes out with natural results & slight golden shimmers. (the shimmers lasts about a day until you shower it off the next time)

question:
i'm using GA Luminous Silk Foundation regularly, but since i do my fake bake, my body will be slightly darker/glowing compared to my head. i have 2 powder bronzers at home (1 Shu Uemura, 1 Dior)... but i want to have something liquid/cream/gel so it'll be easier to blend & in a way more "tip" to the face.

i've read alot of japanese magazines, and i've seen the girls buy a foundation of 1-2 tones darker than their regular shade. but i don't wanna do this due to the fact that an off-color foundation may not match your skin tone the next year. so i ended up buy bronzer powder instead because you can build up the color according to need.

have any other LYK girls used a bronzing gel tinte that adds color without adding coverage??? i'm debating whether i should try:

1. YSL - cheaper compared to GA

2. go back to Giorgio Armani because of confidence from using their Luminous Silk??
