Are things looking a bit pale as the winter season approaches? A great bronzer can make all the difference and warm up your winter look.

Choosing the right bronzer for your skin tone can be tricky. I discovered that the best bronzer I have ever used happened to be in my kitchen cabinet. Pure cocoa powder is the perfect rich brown matte shade without any orange or grey undertones. The universal shade works for a wide variety of skin tones.

Using nutrient-rich cocoa as a cosmetic will literally keep your skin beaming with a healthy glow. You can use pure cocoa as a loose powder bronzer or you can add it to your favorite moisturizer to make to a bronzing cream. This do it yourself chocolate bronzer will help you keep a sun-kissed golden glow all year long.
