Unless you’ve been living under a rock (or you have something to do other than scroll TikTok — jealous), you’ve seen Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi Anti-Pollution Bronzing Drops go super viral. So viral in fact, the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops are often sold out. But if you’ve wanted to try them, don’t stress. We found some stellar Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi Drops dupes that give a similar look at often a fracture of the price tag.
First, let us explain what these liquid bronzer drops do exactly. It’s actually a serum with cocoa extract, platinum peptides and antioxidant-rich chronocyclin to help reduce the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and dullness. The lightweight formula also has a bit of a bronzy glow, so you get those immediate illuminating benefits while the formula goes to work. You’re not meant to use this as contour or bronzer exactly. Instead, you add a drop or more to any serum, oil or cream for an allover glow. (Do NOT add it to SPF or you won’t get the sunscreen benefits.)
The Drunk Elephant drops aren’t cheap at $38 but we find one bottle does last a long time. Still, there are other bronzing drops you’ll love too, some at even cheaper price points. Below, some of our faves.
The original Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi Bronzing Drops with Peptides is currently in-stock at Sephora and Ulta Beauty so you can get your bronze on. Since they went viral, the brand also launched Drunk Elephant Highlighter Drops, a pretty golden serum.
What we love so much about L’Oréal bronzing drops is the four inclusive shades: Fair, Light, Medium, and Deep. The glowy lotion can be used as a primer or alone for allover illumination.
Can we still call it a dupe if it’s only a few dollars cheaper? Either way, we’re stoked about Tarte’s new Key Largo glow bronzing drops, which come in four shades: Champagne Glow, Bronze Glow, Deep Bronze Glow, and Rich Bronze Glow. Wear the antioxidant-infused serum alone as glow-boosting skincare or mix it in moisturizer or primer. Just don’t blend it into SPF – that makes sunscreen less effective.
Hurry and grab Indeed Labs bronzing drops while you can because some TikTokers are saying it’s even better than Drunk Elephant. It has botanical extracts and hyaluronic acid so you get those skincare benefits, too.
You know about the Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Skin Tint but did you know there are also subtle glowy skin-enhancers? Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Eaze Drop’lit All-Over Glow Enhancer features four shades to choose from to get an allover bronze or highlighted sheen.
There are two shades of Saie’s gel-based luminizer that’s meant to be mixed with foundation or skincare, but can be worn alone, too. The color Sunglow (a warm golden bronze) is often sold out.
This pretty liquid highlighter is infused with golden pigments for a face ��� and body! — glow. No one will know you aren’t using the Drunk Elephant bronzer.
These serum-like glow drops also contain skincare ingredients such as moisture-binding peptide polyglutamic acid and antioxidant-rich blackberry extract.
Use this pearly liquid bronzer under foundation, as a highlighter, or mixed with foundation or skincare. It comes in 10 shades so you can easily decide your level of bronzy glow.
This oil-free liquid bronzer has a matte finish (in five sheer shades), making it especially great for sculpting the face.
This multi-tasking serum is meant to give skin an allover glow. It’s not shimmery so it provides a dewy base for makeup that’s infused with the cold-pressed juice of ripened coconuts, squalene, and hyaluronic acid.
