Best home self-tanner?

I think I'm going to give my skin a break this summer and wear SPF 50 to the beach. What are your favorite home self tanners?

Re: Best home self-tanner?

I feel like a connoisseur...Chat Icon I do it ALL the time.

I really like the jergens gradual tanning lotions. I think they're great, are fool proof, and give you a nice color. HOWEVER, they SMELL. They go on smelling nice...but later on they give off this awful odor (although maybe all bodies are different and mine just doesn't mix with it...?)

But my new favorite (because it doesn't smell) is banana boat's deep color for all skin types. I find it works well, isn't streaky, and I get compliments all the time on my color.

I actually posted this the other day. MrsG123 recommended Bare Essentuals faux tan and I bought on Friday and used it once and it gave me great color in one application. I was very happy with it. I got it at Sephora.

Re: Best home self-tanner?

i've given up on the self-tanners this year (don't want the chemicals bc of the baby), but I've used Sally Hansen Airbrush makeup on my legs and it looks great! My DH even asked me if I sat out yesterday when he wasn't home because my legs were so unusually non-pasty. Chat Icon

If you like the "gradual" ones llike Jergens but hate the smell, try Olay Touch of Sun. It's subtle and gradual like Jergen's but NO horrible smell! Love this product, I'm on my second tube and love the results.

I have been using the Neutrogena spray tan and am very happy with it. I like the spray because it's very lightweight and streak free.
