Best Buildable Tan: Skinny Tan Gradual Tanner
Gradual tanner is the perfect way to introduce yourself to the world of tanning. Designed to deepen in colour the more you apply it, the formulation minimises the risk of going overboard.

Best Fast Results: Cocoa Brown Original 1 Hour Tan Mousse Dark

Best Quick Dry: L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self Tan Express Mist Spray
If applying your tan with a mitt often ends in disaster, L’Oreal has just the thing for you. L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self Tan Express Mist Spray is an easy-to-apply self-tan with a revolutionary application system that eliminates the need for endless rubbing.
The secret to streak-free results comes from the ultra-wide spray applicator which uniformly expels micro-fine tanning particles over the skin. These particles dry instantly, without the need for rubbing. So, if you’re a bit of a butterfingers, or just want a fool-proof way to achieve flawless results, this is the tanning solution for you.
Best For Face: SOSU by SJ Dripping Gold Wonder Water Tanning Face Mist
In summer you can get away with ditching the foundation in favour of natural, sun-kissed skin, but in winter it’s a different ballgame. Pale, lacklustre skin leaves you looking washed out, but now there’s an alternative to full-face makeup.
SOSU by SJ Dripping Gold Wonder Water Tanning Face Mist is a facial tanner designed to give you a boost of radiance throughout the winter. The hydrating mist is infused with vitamin E and gives your face a filter-like golden glow in 4-8 hours. Allow the spray to dry before applying makeup or going to sleep, then enjoy your natural bronzed glow.
