this is the only gradual tanner I will use every single day to keep a nice base tan. I have olive skin tone so it doesn't make me yellow!

The whole Tan-Luxe line is my favorite. This is more lotion texture rather than thinner serum like gradual tanner
THE BUTTER - Illuminating Gradual Tanning Cream

I love this brand for self tanner. It's expensive, but WORTH it!! It takes longer to fade, and easy to exfoliate off!

I LOVE A PURPLE BASE. I haven't met a violet based self tanner that has made me orange a different color other than tan. I have olive skin tone so it works really well for me!

This is where I started. This 3 piece bundle worked GREAT! The mitt doesn't last long but so important to have to really get that tan to go on evenly!

This is a staple to keep on hand at all times. I love it, it smells better than most self tanners and weirdly I like this one in the winter more than the summer

The cheapest and best self tanner I have ever used. I kept it on longer than the suggested one hour (more like I slept over night with it) and the tan was perfect.

Jergens is either a love or a hate. I personally love it but it doesn't last as long as the other products. Can build on top of this tanner!

I go through a lot of these and so glad they are $10 but it's worth it to get the even application after using a mitt!
