Supermodel Body Highlighter, £46 | Charlotte Tilbury
Best For: Easy Application

Perfect Legs Skin Miracle, £40 | This Works
Best For: A Subtle Look
Not only does this formula actively repair skin, it also delivers a natural-looking glow to help your skin look its healthiest. The minimal-shimmer lotion builds a layer of warm colour instantly, while vitamins C and E even out skin tone and disguise any unwanted bumps. It also includes arnica extract to fade bruises in just a few days.

Rose Gold Sun Shield Body Glow SPF 45, £39 | Kopari

Containing plenty of fatty acids and nourishing glycerine, this oil instantly hydrates skin. More impressively, it provides a soft-focus effect, with iron oxide and mica delivering a bronzed finish that looks natural and even.

Shimmering Dry Oil Huile Prodigieuse, £32 | Nuxe
Best For: Those On A Budget
Spritz this shimmering oil onto your shoulders or décolletage and watch the rose-coloured liquid give your skin a radiant sheen. We like to use a little on the cheekbones, too – it catches the light beautifully for that subtly sculpted look.

Instant Hero Illuminating Skin Perfector, £24 | Tan-Luxe
Best For: Multipurpose Use
This bronzing gel comes out of the tube quite thick but dissolves the minute you rub it in. What’s left behind is a natural-looking skin tint that disguises redness, cellulite and any unwanted imperfections. The best part is you don’t have to worry about it feeling tacky or sticking to your clothes.

Terracotta Le Teint Healthy Glow Natural Perfection Foundation, £47 | Guerlain
Best For: A Bronzed Look
This luxe tinted spray not only leaves your skin looking refined and even – the addictive scent will hook you in from the very first use. Because it’s a mist, application couldn’t be easier, making it ideal for self-tan phobes who fear uneven patches and streaks.

Coco Mademoiselle Pearly Body Gel, £85 | Chanel
Best For: A Luxe Treat
Designed to be used on the body, face and hair, this three-in-one product is an industry favourite for a reason. With a beautiful shine, its reflective qualities create a satin-like glow and when applied to the hair, it adds a coppery, sun-blushed tint that should enhance your existing hair colour. A luxe choice – but worth it for the expensive finish.

Major Glow Body Oil, £48 | Patrick Ta
Best For: Impactful Shimmer
If you want glow without the colour, this shimmer body oil is worth a try. The transparent base is paired with coloured flecks, with shades of champagne, pink or gold pearls available. The result? A subtle but dewy, glass-like radiance – zero bronzing in sight. Even better, the formula softens and moisturises skin, while the jasmine, saffron and ambergris fragrance only adds to the luxe experience.

You Glow Girl Non-Transfer Body Blur, £14 | INC.redible
Best For: A Blurred Effect
Weightless, easy to blend and with a non-transferring formula, this is the perfect product for nights out. Subtle, with only a slight shimmer and a focus on smoothing, blurring and concealing, this won’t just combat uneven skin tone, it’ll also add a delicate sheen to the skin. Vegan, cruelty free and full of added skincare benefits, we’d recommend this to anyone who’s on the sensitive side.
