I use the bb cream by Lumene which only comes in the darkest shade of medium which still looks a little off when I wear it compared to my body.
I'm looking at the Milani bronzers because I use their blushes and love them. I have sensitive ish skin by their products don't bother me. Plus they are so affordable. Just need help with which one would suit me?
I'm attaching a picture it's not very good but it's the best one with no filter that shows me with my bb cream on and how it compares to my body. Just want a little more bronze glow on my face.
Thanks in advance for all your help!

Physicians formula has great bronzers. I love the butter bronzer but I just have the light shade which is only,good for really fair people. But they do have darker shades and different options besides the butter bronzer.

Kevyn Aucoin has wonderful bronzers that don't have the comedogenic ingredients that most other bronzers have, if you're worried about that at all

For what you're trying to achieve, I would choose a darker BB or tinted moisterizer in a deeper shade closer to your body shade even if it's not exact & then add a bronzer to add a glowier bronzed look. I feel just using a bronzer all over your face to match your body won't look as natural as using a combination of both a slightly darker bb (to deepen your skintone) & a bronzer to give that glowy tanned look. Imo, a tan has a different look than just someone with a naturally darker skintone. I think it's because a tan has a combination of red and brown tones (which I can see on your shoulders and arm) that gives the color more dimension than just a one tone bb or bronzer. So, by using a combination of both a darker bb & a bronzer will simulate a more realistic tan. I'm not saying you can't achieve a nice look with just using 1 product, but I'm kinda of a stickler for getting the most realistic natural look as possible. Benefit Hoola bronzer has some pink it it. And Keyyn Aucoin's Neo Bronzer has red in it but is very pigmented, so you need a very light hand.

I think if you want something a bit on the deeper side for your complexion, a product worth taking a look at is Bahama Mama by The Balm. I prefer it for the summer because it gives me that darkness without looking orange or shiny or glittery. Comparing it to Hoola: It's not as powdery, it lasts longer in the pan, doesn't have as much fallout and obviously the color is different. Besides, it's easier to pick up with a brush because it's not in a box :)

Thanks ladies the only thing is my bb cream doesn't come in a darker color and I really really don't want to use any other brand because my skin is sensitive and this has been like a miracle for my skin. It actually feels better every time I take it off and it's the perfect satin finish I like. Otherwise I would definitely just choose a darker shade. Thank you though. Maybe I will try the Bahama mama bronzer I have heard a lot about that.
Breeze where can you get the balm products here in the US? Are they online only? Or can I find them at ulta or Sephora or something?

Ended up buying the Milani soleil bronzer and I'm very happy with it! I think it wasn't that my bb cream was so much lighter then my skin but that it was all one color and looked flat for lack of a better word. Applying the bronzer in a 3 shape a bit on my forehead nose and jaw gave it more dimension I guess and looks natural with my tan!
