sun & fun baked bronzer

Tarte sugar rush™ sun & fun is a baked bronzer for the eleven months of the year you aren't on a beach. The powder is silky and light, it builds from a whisper to a proper bronze, and because it's baked in a terracotta pan every single one comes out slightly different from the next.

What it actually does

• Fakes a holiday tan without the sun. The pigment reads as warmth on the skin rather than a flat brown stripe.
• Adds depth and dimension instantly. One pass gives sun-kissed colour; focused placement turns it into a soft contour.
• Builds gradually. The powder is light enough to layer, so you control how far you take it.
• Keeps a creamy look, not a powdery one. Tarte credits the baked, multi-dimensional finish for why it doesn't go chalky or flat on the face.
• Each pan is one of a kind. Baking in terracotta means no two compacts come out identical.

How to use

• For definition: dust along the forehead, the cheeks and the nose — the places the sun would naturally hit.
• For an all-over glow: sweep a light layer across the whole face instead of placing it in sections.
• For contour: keep it tighter and higher up the cheekbone and build slowly.
