The creamy chubby stick glides on effortlessly and starts to feel like a powder once you start blending it with your fingers. It’s got a decent amount of shimmer in it and has a slight rose gold tint that makes it perfect for accentuating cheekbones. I wouldn’t apply this all over my face but if you’ve already got a base tan (real or faux), it’s the perfect option to take your glow up a notch. It also looks gorgeous when used as a cream eyeshadow. 

 

 

The dome shape of this little pod makes it really easy to swipe under your cheekbones, taking the guesswork out of contouring. The silky texture makes blending a dream, while its semi-matte finish will give you just the right amount of glow without looking too flat or too shimmery. The color actually looks like a real tan – not orange or pinkish. Not bad from a company that started as a nail polish brand, huh? 

 

 

 

Can’t be bothered with creams, powders and even self-tanners? Then this Bronzing Tint is right up your alley. It offers up a beautiful glow with the least amount of effort, ever. You can use the fluid alone and smear it all over without worrying about streaks or blotchiness, or better yet, mix it with your moisturizer or sunscreen (!) to get beautiful color without committing to a self-tanner. Plus, it won’t rub off. And like all Dr. Hauskha products, it’s 100% natural and free of synthetic fragrances and parabens. 

 

 

 

This right here will change the game of bronzing and self-tanning as we know it. It’s a loose powder bronzer that contains self-tanner, meaning your tan will still be visible after you wash all your makeup off at night. This first-of-its-kind formula is made with bronzing minerals and a unique technology that activates the DHA when placed in contact with prepped skin (A.K.A. it works best over moisturizer or liquid foundation). One application will give you a beautiful glow for up to seven days, putting all other bronzing powders to shame. 

 

 

 

If a BB cream and gradual tanning bronzer had a baby, it would be this priming, perfecting and hydrating Tan Pen by UK tanning expert James Read (he’s the guy behind Ellie Goulding and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s gorgeous glow). It’s not severely tinted when you first apply it, but it does work its way up as the day goes on. The lightweight formula made with hylauronic acid, red algae and anti-aging co-enzyme Q10 not only nourishes skin, but also makes it look lit from within. The click pen with its brush applicator is also genius (no more dirty-looking hands!). Available in light and medium.
