{31 Days of Going Green} Day 7: DIY Bronzer

Today’s post is an easy DIY bronzer/blush tutorial. All you need is an empty compact case, some cinnamon and powdered sugar, your favorite essential oil, and 2 free minutes of time. 
First, find an empty compact case {previously eye shadow, blush or powder} and wash it out. Next, mix a little bit of cinnamon and powdered sugar together. Keep in mind that the more cinnamon you put in, the darker the bronzer will be. Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil – this will help bond the mixture together. And voila: homemade bronzer/blush!

Here’s a video {see above} with step-by-step directions should you have any questions or if you’re a visual learner {like me}!



Unfortunately the lighting in my bathroom is poor on the video so you can’t really see the color of my cheeks. Here’s a {slightly awkward/weird} photo of me — up close so you can see the bronzer/blush.
