We are exactly one month away from the official start of winter, but it seems like the sun is already playing a little hide-and-seek in many cities. Unless you live in South Florida or Southern California, it’s a pretty safe bet you’ll have to take extra steps to keep your beautiful sun-kissed glow.
And while tanning beds are a major no-no, there are so many products out there that can help you look like a bronzed goddess all year long. Here are some of the best products on the market available for sale now.
Dancer-turned-actress Julianne Hough is one of the many celebrities singing the praises of Benefit’s Hoola Bronzer ($28). It’s only available in one shade but ladies as fair as Julianne and as dark as Parenthood’s Jurnee Smollett swear by it.
Kardashian Beauty Cabana Bronze Matter Bronzer
You can’t talk about bronzer and not mention Kim Kardashian. The queen of the golden skin recently mentioned during an interview she can’t live without Kardashian Beauty’s Cabana Bronze Matte Bronzer ($14.99). The best part about this bronzer is the size. Use a large brush and use it on your décolletage and anywhere else you want a bit of warmth.
Sol de Janeiro Golden Body Veil
If you live somewhere where it gets extremely cold, you may not be in any rush to remove your body hair…am I right? Keep what you have AND add a golden touch using Sol de Janeiro’s Golden Body Veil ($39). This customer favorite uses a lightening system to lighten and transform your hair into a subtle yet shimmery glow.
L’Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Serum
I love it when brands make my life easier by making their products easy to apply. L’Oreal Paris created their Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Serum ($11) to be used with your favorite moisturizer. Just add three drops and moisturize as usual.
Victoria’s Secret Self-Tanning Tinted Spray
Who knows better than Victoria’s Secret about how a woman looks best when undressed? Their Self-Tanning Tinted Spray ($15) gives you instant results and it leaves your skin looking like you just left the beach. Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio trust this brand for a reason.
Motives Shimmer Stick in Island Glow
This is one of my favorite products because it combines convenience and effectiveness. You can stash this tube anywhere and take it along with you for touch-ups on-the-go. Island Glow ($22) adds warmth to the skin with a touch of shimmer to highlight cheeks, eyes, and nose with a warm, creamy color.
