Clarins Golden Glow Booster for Body, $45

One of my biggest issues with self tanners is that they tend to be a bit drying for my skin and I’m a total body lotion addict. So, when I found one that I could mix in with my favorite moisturizer, I could not wait to try it.

For application, all I had to do was mix my body moisturizer with 4-6 drops of the Clarins Golden Glow Booster for Body in the palm of my hand and smooth over the desired area. The first time I applied the product, I was in a major rush, so I skipped exfoliating beforehand and barely mixed the product in with the body lotion. Expecting it to be streaky due to my lack of caution in applying it, I was pleasantly surprised when my golden tan came out perfect. No streaks, just bronze.

It’s a great product to get a natural looking tan without having to forgo moisturizing your skin (especially in the summer when skin is parched from the sun!). I’d definitely buy this in the future! -Julie Ricevuto, Staff Writer
