Best Tanning Gel / Lotions (for Face)?

5 replies

I used to religiously use Lancome flash bronzer tanning gel for the face which developed into a lovely golden brown colour and didn't streak at all. I put it on twice a week and it helped me look healthy. Unfortunately, it has been discontinued and I am struggling to replace it. I have tried the Tan Luxe face drops but they turn me the wrong colour and I don't look natural. I also only use tanning products for my face so want something that makes me look sunkissed but blends in okay with my body (am fairly olive skinned anyway). Can anyone give me any recommendations?

Not a gel or lotion but the most natural facial self tan I’ve found is St Tropez Purity spray. Just spritz a bit on before bedtime and wake up slightly healthier looking. Not too orange, natural looking and very easy to use.

I mourn the loss of the Lancôme Flash Bronzer gel too! Have searched in vain for something similar but no-one seems to do a quick drying gel like that. I have used tanning drops mixed into my serum but, like the PP, now use a face mist. I have the St Moritz one and the Isle of Paradise Night Glow one. I put one of them on before I get into bed to read or watch TV for an hour so it has time to sink in before going to sleep.

Forgot to mention I spray mine on then swirl a face brush round my face to make sure it is blended and I don't end up with any splodges.

Thank you! I will definitely look into spritz’s!
