Our Favourite Self-Tans For A Head-To-Toe Glow
FOR THE FACE
Super Glow Hyaluronic Self-Tan Serum
£36 | Tan-Luxe
A couple of drops of this serum mixed into your usual moisturiser is all it takes to impart a healthy, honeyed tone. If you prefer something a little more intentionally bronzed, simply add a few more drops until you’re happy. A formula full of hyaluronic acid and other hydrating ingredients, it also ensures skin looks nicely plump too.

Self Tan Face Mist
£17 | Bare By Vogue
This excellent formula delivers the perfect amount of colour in just a couple of sprays. The mist itself is fine enough to ensure a virtually foolproof application straight from the bottle, but if the idea of a spraying directly on to skin feels a little daunting, try misting it into a large, clean bronzer brush first before blending it in.

Sunlit Skin Self Tan Express
£17.40 (was £29) St Tropez
A fast-acting bronzed tint that delivers a pretty, golden finish in under three hours, this is a brilliant formula to have on hand for any last-minute plans over the festive period. The quick-drying formula is especially handy as it means you can apply make-up right away without worrying about disturbing the final result.

Self-Tanning Hydrating Facial
£120 | Sisley-Paris
Blending the benefits of hydrating skincare with a gentle golden hue, this iconic product is a bit of a beauty insiders’ secret weapon. While you can apply it first thing and allow it to subtly develop over the course of the day, try applying it at night so that you wake up with glowing skin.

FOR THE BODY
Tinted Tanning Mousse
£27 | Vita Liberata
Another one that’s bursting with moisture-binding ingredients like hyaluronic acid and aloe vera, this is a tan that leaves your skin feeling softer and more supple than even some body lotions. The colour pay-off itself varies depending on which shade you choose but whatever you go for, you can guarantee a rich, natural-looking tan and a completely streak-free finish.

Golden Glow Gradual Tan
£55 | Gatineau
This is a great option for beginners. The cream-gel formula is excellent, immediately hydrating and soothes skin with its blend of vitamin E, soy and coconut oil, while the tan itself is a slow-build of natural-looking colour. The fast-absorbing, non-tacky formula also means you can apply it before bed without worrying about staining your sheets.

Body Self-Tanning Drops
£26.95 | Isle Of Paradise
These versatile tanning drops can deliver anything from a light caramel veil to a deeply bronzed glow. Easy to add into your regular moisturiser, it’s a good choice for anyone wary of traditional tanning with a mitt or who wants the benefits of their usual body cream. The tan itself lasts around five days before it starts to fade but rest assured you won’t be left with any awkward patchiness.
