Okay so I'm looking for a CREAM bronzer, which isn't orange, I don't really like powders since they make my skin look odd , so is there any really nice pretty cream bronzers that any of you can recommend to me and show me pictures maybe? I don't want anything too expensive! Thank you :)

Thank you I'll look into that! Does it still give that really bronzed skin look, because That's what I like and is there different shades? If so which one Would you recommend

Also since it's a liquid what brush do you recommend to use and how to I blend it in? With a patting motion or buff it in like a foundation? Sorry I've never used liquid bronzer :)

Nars has a liquid bronzer. I haven't swatched it so I don't know how orange it would be, but I have the illuminator that I bought last December and I have hardly made a dent, using it everyday lol.
You can mix it with your foundation to give it a bronzed tint too. Loreal I believe has a dupe for the illuminator, but I don't know about the bronzer but if they do it's a good dupe to try it out

Oh really? I never knew all these brands had liquid bronzers?! Oh yeah I've heard of the L'Oréal illuminators I'll be sure to look into nars and L'Oréal, is the nars one just one shade only? Thank you also!:)

I'm not too sure, the Loreal ones are always sold out where I am, so I don't know if there's other colors or just the illuminator.

The nars one has a couple blush shades, on the more bronzing side, and a true bronzer. I believe it's hot sand? Or something similarly named. They don't sell them in store in my sephora so I had to order mine online so I'm not sure how many shades there are. I believe a couple other brands have similar too.

So I got curious, and decided to take a look on sephora and there's quite a lot of them! If you go into the bronzer category you can filter to find liquid formulas. Here's a few that I think will fit. There's plenty more but these are the ones that I've seen or heard reviews on.
This is hot sand.

I've tested this one in store, its super warm. Not orange but definitely a bronzer shade.

And last one. This one is a stick, its supposed to be for contouring but it's super warm and I've seen a lot of people use it as bronzer instead and it's beautiful

Wow thank you alyx! Oh really? That sucks, they're always available from where I am, you can look at it on Superdrug's website, for £9 and sadly I don't have a Sephora here in London :( but I think I can still order from them? They all look so beautiful! So many to choose from lol, I really like the look of that nars liquid bronzer! And I've heard SO many good things abojt the cover fx, I'll have to look into them! And the one that you tested, is it a matte or shimmer? What's the pigment like?:) and I would love to try the bronzing stick but I'm just worried if I will make it look muddy, whenever I APPly powder bronzer I always use a tiny bit and it still looks patchy and really muddy? I have no idea why I'm going to look into all of these thank you so much!:) I'll be sure to post on what I get

I don't really remember if it was matte or shimmery, I was looking at it last December when I bought my nars one.
The stick one I saw Emma pickles on YouTube put it on her brush first and it applied beautifully. I believe she even said something like "instead of drawing lines that are going to cause patchy, muddy and hard to blend lines I apply it on my brush first" and it looked super nice
