Hello Spring & Summer tan! I don’t know about you but I self tan before we head to the beach. I like to get a couple shots in before heading to the dock and getting scorched by the suns harmful Uv rays. Self tanners are a great alternative to get that beach glow without the harm.
Over the years I’ve been on the search for a non generic, non smelly and of course cruelty free self tanner. I’ve stumbled upon some really good ones and now have been trying to find some affordable options, that I can maintain. That way I don’t break the bank trying to achieve a good tan at home. Today I am sharing what self tanners I am currently loving and using. One is a spray and the other is a tanning drop self tanner, that you add to your favorite moisturizer.
• Tanologist Tanning Drops | face + body is under $15 and can be found at your nearest target run. Saves me so much time if I need to tan before photos or events I have coming up. Using these drops : add 10-12 drops to your favorite body moisturizer and apply with hands. Wash hands when finished.
I do love the pretty color of this one and also that it’s for face + body. It does give me a good dark tan which I love. A much darker shade than the other one I will talk about. It doesn’t really have much of a scent but it’s super affordable and convenient + good for on the go, so small! Also available in a self tanner mousse and tanning water. Shop this one HERE
• Isle of paradise tanning water | I absolutely love this self tanner water it is a bit more in price under $30 but oh so good. I have this in the medium color and I’m glad I don’t have the deep color. I get dark already and I just mainly want a natural glow. For me this works. It works fast and drys so fast. Smells really good and lasts a good while.
This brand also has the tanning drops and now mousse. But I’ll keep sticking with the water. The drops are a little more and the mousse is too. Can’t recommend the water enough. Shop this one HERE
Lastly, sharing a few more affordable self tanner brands. One I’ve tried and a couple more that I’d love to test.
• Tanceuticals | under $30 smells so GOOD y’all. I’ve used this one and love love it! Comes in a lotion form & mousse. Shop HERE
• Bali Body | a self tanner I would love to try! I’ve heard great things. Comes in a mousse, self tanning water and gradual self tanner lotion. all usually under $30. Shop HERE
• Sol Self tanner by Dr. Jergens (this one is cruelty free) this is a new product that was just released and love that it’s pink. It’s super affordable under $18. They are drops so they do need a moisturizer to add them too. Also available in mousse! (This I’ll prob pick up next) Shop HERE
