5 Game-changing Self-tanners to Get You Set for Summer
It's that most-dreaded time of year when you're preparing to surrender tights and bare your sun-starved skin for all to balk at. We're all in the same boat - lizard-esque and slightly sickly - which is why we've curated this edit of self tanning products to make skin look less ghostly...
Revolutionising the tanning industry, TAN-LUXE's mystifying The Water is a magical, spray-on 'water' that's completely clear and infused with natural tanning agents to create a gorgeous, post-holiday glow. You simply spritz, blend and go with no waiting around for your body to 'air dry'. It's the easiest way to look bronzed when you're busy...
A bronzing powder with a difference, Vita Liberata's Trystal Minerals lends face (and limbs) an instant and long-lasting glow. Enriched with DHA, this gives a gorgeous sunkissed look while slowly staining (in the best way!) so your tan stays put - even after you've taken the day off. Want to see it in action? Click {here}...
Is it an oil? Is it an SPF? Is it a tanner? Well, it's actually all three. Miraculous as that may seem, Vita Liberata's Marula Self Tanning Dry Oil SPF 50 marries skin care, sun care and aesthetic benefits to hydrate and protect while leaving your skin enviably honeyed. The most ingenious elixir, it's delectably scented - ideal if you're jetting off somewhere exotic.
Charlotte Tilbury's game-changingOvernight Bronze and Glow Mask - before and after, above - boasts a cocktail of replenishing ingredients - conditioning blackcurrant and sunflower seed oils, soothing oat kernel extract and retexturising lactic acid - alongside gradual tanning actives to bestow a kiss of colour. Slather on before bed (it won't stain your pillow) and wake up looking luminous.
