These Bronzers Are $11 and Under—in Case You Haven't Seen the Sun in a Second
Plus, they're top rated.
One wouldn't necessarily think finding a great bronzer would be all that difficult. But, when it comes to finding a formula that doesn't leave you overly dry, overly shimmery, overly ashy, or—the horror—overly, orange, the task gets frustrating fast. Oh, and don't think for a second that simply spending more money on a bronzer will automatically assure your safety from any of the above symptoms. Some of the most well-known or It-status bronzers have lefts us looking like disco balls or pint-sized extras in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. (Not, precisely, the vibe we're going for.) In fact, some of the best formulas we've tried during our beauty editor careers cost less than your average latte in Los Angeles, and if the hoards of stellar reviews amount to anything, beauty shoppers everywhere seem to agree. Since we've swiped plenty of dupes, duds, and downright scary formulas over the year, we have a pretty good bearing on what to shop and what to, um, not when it comes to finding the best drugstore bronzer. Below, we're sharing 11 of our favorites that also happen to have amazingly robust reviews to boot. Looking to fake the look of a Hawaiin vacation for $10 or less? Keep scrolling? Your ultimate drugstore bronzer awaits.Whether you look on Amazon or Walmart, this fan-favorite drugstore bronzer from Milani rakes in stellar review after stellar review. The formula is vegan, cruelty-free, comes in four flattering shades, and offers a silky matte finish that's the next best thing to an actual tan. If you're someone looking for a bronzer that doubles as an A+ contour powder, look no further. Shoppers love this pick from CoverGirl, and the petite size of the compact is extra handy for throwing into a clutch or makeup bag. We're not sure if it gets better than a $3 bronzer, and E.l.f.'s popular formula doesn't disappoint in results. (Seriously, we would never guess it wasn't about 10 times the price!) It's one of the most blendable drugstore bronzers we've tried, and it's even enriched with vitamin E to treat your skin to some much-needed winter T.L.C.This sleek compact from NYX is one of the highest-rated bronzers on the market while also being one of the most affordable. It has a near-perfect rating on Walmart's website with a whopping 200+ reviews. The finish is matte, so if you're not into shimmer, this one's a great option. That said, if you're the kind of makeup lover who does appreciate a little hint of shimmer (I'm with you, especially around the holidays!), this best-of-the-best bronzer is one of our personal favorites. It's waterproof, promises 10-hours of budge-proof wear and offers a pretty sheen that's not over-the-top or tacky.Beauty editors, YouTubers, and even makeup artists go wild for this beloved, buttery bronzer from natural drugstore makeup brand Physician's Formula. Even though it's a powder, it has this unique and amazing creamy formula that feels like satin and blends like a dream into your cheekbones and forehead. The secret? A signature infusion of Murumuru Butter, Cupuacu Butter, and Tucuma Butter along with ultra-fine pearl and soft-focus pigments for a bright and radiant finish. I'm a self-professed makeup snob, and I'm more than happy to admit that I keep a number of Wet n Wild's Color Icon bronzers on had at all times in my bathroom drawer. They do have some shimmer and they do offer a heftier boost of color, but I've found this drugstore option to be my one and only go-to before a big night out or before an event when I know there will be lots of photos and I don't want my complexion to look flat or washed out. Surprise! Essence is one of my favorite drugstore makeup brands, point-blank and I'm actually obsessed with its blushes. That said, this matte bronzer has some seriously amazing ratings on Ulta's website, so you can imagine that this $5 compact will be the next on my hit list. I realize this super-luminous drugstore bronzer from L'Oreal looks a bit intense in terms of its shimmer ration, but trust when I say it gifts your cheekbones and decolletage with the prettiest, summer-touched kiss of color. It is on the sparkly side, but definitely not outrageously so. I love layering it over a body lotion or oil for a super-glowy vibe. Not a powder person? Fear not, this cult-loved bronzer stick from Burt's Bees is a game changer and perfect for executing the perfect dose of bronze or contour in a mess-free jiffy. Choose from a handful of shades that immediately brighten up your face with a stunning glow just as the product's name alludes. Maybe it's Hawaii, maybe it's… Maybelline. (Sorry, couldn't resist!) Anyway, this contour-and-bronzing hybrid from the brand is one of the best and is even infused with whipped cocoa butter to keep your complexion moisturized and healthy this season.

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
