Top 10 Self-Tanners.

There is more than one way to get your glow on for summer. I talk about bronzers a lot. Just in case you missed any of that, here are my favorite drugstores bronzers, my favorite luxe bronzers and my favorite bronzers to fake a tan. Right now I am going to take that "faking a tan" a bit further and tell you about my top 10 favorite self-tanners. Self-tanners are an excellent way to get your glow on.

The 10 Best Self Tanners | Beautiful Makeup Search

1. Jergens Natural Glow FACE Daily Moisturizer Sunscreen

I use this every night on my face about an hour before I put on my night time moisturizer. The result is natural and gradual.

2. Beautisol Self-Tanning Mousse

This dark brown tinted self-tanner has no self tanning scent at all. It is very easy to apply and delivers a very even, believable shade of golden brown.

3. Lancome Flash Bronzer

This bronze tinted self-tanning gel is great for when I need my legs darkened up in a flash. Color is developed in about 30 minutes.

4. Fake Bake 60 Minute Tan

This tinted self-tan liquid develops into a beautiful, natural looking tan in just 60 minutes. Accelerators speed up development time so a golden glow is achieved in an hour.

5. Clarins Liquid Bronze Self Tanner

This very liquid self-tanning lotion applies very easily and dries in a few minutes. When I am in a rush, this is the self-tanner I apply.

6. Hampton Sun Sunless Tanning Gel

This clear self-tanning gel wins for the best scent that never has that self-tanner smell. It is perfect to use before heading to the beach because it has no color, so won't streak, and the color develops gradually.

7. Fake Bake Flawless Self-Tan Liquid

This great smelling tinted liquid applies with a mitt for a gorgeous, even tan. I like this one for my arms and chest.

8. Vani-T Velocity Rapid Self Tan Mist

This tinted liquid is sprayed onto skin and then spread with a mitt. It dries almost instantly and tan is developed very quickly. The longer you leave it on, the deeper the tan.

9. Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer

This daily lotion develops in to a very light, very natural gradual tan. It is more like a self-tan maintainer. I use it everyday, on my legs, in place of moisturizer.

10. Sun Laboratories Self Tanning Lotion

This creamy very brown tinted lotion applies and spreads easily. I love the cherry-almond scent.

Summer 2013: essie Naughty Nautical Collection.

For me, summer nails are bright. Add in some subtle sparkle, and I am even more drawn to them. That's pretty much why I am loving the super fun colors in essie's new summer Naughty Nautical collection.

"There's nothing more calming than a cruise to paradise, it completely rejuvenated mind, body and soul. This collection is for women in a sunshine sate of mind," says Founder and Creative Director, Essie Weingarten. "Inspired by breezy chiffon cover-ups and cashmere pastel evening looks, these six shades make the perfect wardrobe for any journey."

I am definitely in a sunshine state of mind just looking at the brilliant new shades:

• Rock the Boat - Shimmering French Periwinkle Blue
• Naughty Nautical - Brilliant Marine Blue-Green Shimmery Teal
• The Girls Are Out - Soft Fuchsia Peony Sparkle
• Sunday Funday - Bright Tangerine Coral Crush with Soft Shimmer
• The More the Merrier - Juicy Lime Green
• Full Steam Ahead - Pearlescent Punch of Lilac

I can see myself wearing all of the shades at some point or another this summer. While I've never thought of wearing a lime green on my nails, it could be fun as an accent nail with Sunday Funday (the bright coral) or The Girls Are Out (fuchsia).

Of course, I am still in this orange phase where I am still obsessed with everything orange. Sunday Funday is the first color I just had to try. The sparkle is very subtle and really only shows up out in bright sunlight.

essie's Naughty Nautical collection retails at $8.00 per bottle and is available at essie.com and selected beauty retailers such as Nordstrom.
