Avoid tiger stripes

Whenever I brush on bronzer, I end up with streaks. How can I make it look natural?—Lexie O'Connor, Boston

Bobbi: There's a good chance you're putting on bronzer too soon after applying your moisturizer, which will result in streaks and blotches. Keep in mind that bronzing powders are easier to blend than liquids or gels, but you need to make sure you're skin is perfectly dry, because powders can stick to damp skin. Use a large, fluffy brush, tap off any excess powder, and apply in a circular motion to areas the sun hits first—cheeks, nose, and forehead.
