Sofia Richie just shared her make-up routine and her favourite bronzer is reduced to just £9

Sofia Richie Grainge’s entire beauty portfolio has us in a chokehold. From her classy slick-back wedding ‘do to her timeless baby pink nails (courtesy of Georgia Rae), everything the model does has us following suit. In our latest copycat instalment, it’s Richie Grainge’s sub-£10 bronzer.

When we spot a budget beauty item in a celebrity’s make-up bag, we tend to run to the checkout, if only because most of them can afford more premium products, so anything low-cost has got to be good to have made the cut.

In her latest TikTok post, Richie Grainge showcased all her favourite products during a swift GRWM and shared one of her favourite budget picks as Physicians Formula’s murumuru butter bronzer (was £16.49, now £9.89, Lookfantastic.com).

Alongside the budget bronzer, other affordable items included the Maybelline lash sensational mascara (was £9.99, now £7.99, Lookfantastic.com) and NYX lip liner pencil in shade 857, nude brown (£4, Boots.com). And yes, finding that exact shade from a grainy TikTok took pure grit and determination – you’re welcome.

If you’re not familiar with the Physicians Formula bronzer, then you’ll be pleased to learn that it comes in four different shades from light to deep, and is suitable for dry skin types as it’s formulated to keep skin moisturised, despite being a powder.

The bronzer’s ingredients list features fatty acids, vitamins, glycerin, aloe vera and a whole host of skin-loving components for a finish that not only looks good but does good, too.

Applying it in her on-screen tutorial, Richie Grainge takes a medium-sized, fluffy make-up brush to dust the powder along the upper arches of her cheekbones, up from the apples of her cheeks to the top of her ears. The finish is subtle, providing a healthy flush of colour that appears natural, which is the appeal of so many of the star’s signature looks – your skin but better, and for sub-£10 no less.
