While some are blessed with beautifully tanned or dark skin, there are some of us who are decidedly not.

Whether you’re prone to sunburns, never venture outside or could use a little boost in color, you should consider using a self-tanner. These days, there are so many options available that it’s hard to determine what’s best for you. Will it be too dark? Will it make you look orange? These are the questions you might be asking yourselves, but here at Sweety High, our standards are high when it comes to beauty—and self-tanning products are no exception.

We have a few tried and true favorites we’d like to share. Keep scrolling for our five fave self-tanning products.

1. +Lux Unfiltered NOº32 Gradual Self-Tanning Cream: $32

One of our fave lifestyle bloggers, Sivan Ayla, recently launched her first-ever self-tanning line, called +Lux Unfiltered. Right now, she’s only dropped one product, but let us tell you… it’s incredible. It doesn’t turn orange, stain your sheets or feel sticky. It blends right into your skin and will give you a gorgeous looking tan in no time. Here’s to hoping she drops new products soon!

2. Bondi Sands Dark Self-Tanning Foam: $24

The popular Australian brand, Bondi Sands, is known as the GOAT of tanning products, and for good reason! Their innovative formulas get the job done, especially with their self-tanning foam. It’s easy to apply and is quicker than a cream. Plus, this specific foam instantly gives you a tan. So, if you’re ever in a rut and need a quick glow, this is the product for you.

3. Luna Bronze Illume Tanning Mist: $36

If you’re anything like us and keep your face out of the sun (which, hello, you should be doing), this facial tanning mist is about to become your best friend. Meant to be applied before any serums or moisturizers, it acts as the perfect base and can even be used as a makeup setting spray. We love the versatility of this product and use it religiously.

4. Comodynes Self-Tanning Wipes 8-Pack: $15.99

For some reason, wipes just seem way easier to apply a self-tanner than with a cream or lotion. If this sounds up your alley, you should give these Comodynes wipes a go! Meant for your face, neck and cleavage, this is the perfect product for when you’re on-the-go and need a quick pick-me-up. In just three hours, you’ll be left with a subtle, even shine.

5. Vita Liberata Fabulous Self-Tanning Gradual Lotion: $30

If you’re on the hunt for a self-tanner that’s great for everyday use, Vita Liberata has the perfect product for you. Their lotion works wonders and will leave you with perfectly tanned skin. Plus, it won’t transfer onto your clothes or dry out your skin. We especially love this bad boy because it’s virtually odorless, meaning it won’t collide with your perfume, hair spray or anything else!
