Best Self-Tanners for a Healthy Glow




Sublime Bronze Hydrating Self-Tanning Water MousseL’Oréal Paris Sublime Bronze Hydrating Self-Tanning Water Mousse

In an almost unheard of feat for a self-tanner, this watery L’Oréal Paris mousse infused with coconut juice and castor oil earned perfect points for its “pleasant” tropical scent. Plus, the drugtore bargain came out on top for being easy to use and tied for cleanest application, being easiest to spread and absorbing fastest. It left skin “buttery soft” after application, one tester marveled. A few testers commented that it was hard to see where you were applying, as this product is clear.

GH Beauty Lab testers loved the Tan-Luxe gradual self-tanner lotion’s scent during application and development, and that their tan looked natural and not blotchy. “I liked the even tone of the color and the way my skin felt,” one said. “I noticed no blotchiness.” For best results, apply it with a tanning mitt since some people said its thin consistency made application more difficult.
