5 Best fake tans for face to try this fall

1. Utan x Jamie Tan Water: The best tanning water to sensitive skin

Utan’s tanning water has been widely praised as a revolutionary facial tanner. It lived up to its hype when we tried it. The spray bottle is handy and evenly sprays on your face, neck, and shoulders in seconds. It sinks quickly into skin without leaving traces on clothes. After four to six hours, you will have a natural-looking, even tanned appearance. You can also get a 50% darker version if the normal version is not dark enough. Warning: The dark version can look very dark, so it is best to get the original version.

The utan-x Jamie facial mist is also highly praised for its skin-loving ingredients, which help to reduce breakouts. The water contains CBD, which has a soothing and healing effect on acne, dry skin, and eczema.

2. BaliBody Gradual Face Tan Hydrating Cream: Best gradual tan moisturiser

A tanning moisturizer makes facial fake tanning easy. Just swap your usual moisturiser for the BaliBody gradual tan lotion every few days, and you’ll see a difference in your skin. This particular one is suitable for all skin types. It contains antioxidant-rich vitaminE, as well as deeply moisturizing almond oil, cacao seed butters, shea butter, soothing aloe vera, and shea butter.

The packaging feels luxurious and is beautiful on the shelf. The pump dispenser allows you to easily disperse the right amount of product for your face, neck, and shoulders. This means that the rest of your moisturiser will not be affected by you touching it every day.

3. Vita Liberata beauty Blur Face: Best for makeup

Fake tans that are applied to the face do not have an immediate tan effect. Most tans are applied without a guide colour to show you the areas you have used, so they won’t transfer to fabrics. Vita Liberata’s 3-in-1 tinted moisturizer, face tan, and skin perfector is the best choice if you want an instant glow.

The stick applicator makes it easy to apply. You can use it alone for deeper, lighter coverage or combine it with foundation for more coverage. It instantly gives you a natural-looking tan. The tan is light-reflecting and uses shea butter as well as hyaluronic acids to deep moisturize, smoothen and brighten your skin. You’ll have a natural-looking tan after eight hours.

4. Bondi Sands Pure Self Tanning Sleep Mask: Best budget facial fake tan

The best fake tans are worth the price. Cheaper formulas can leave your skin looking patchy and dry, with a very subtle effect. Bondi Sands’ overnight mask bucks this trend. This overnight mask is a hydrating masque that can be used before bed to give your skin a shining, tanned glow. Bondi Sands suggests that you apply it as the final step of your nighttime skin care routine. It doesn’t have a guide colour, so it won’t stain your sheets. You need to use a small amount.

The formula is great value for money. It is fragrance-free and extremely hydrating due to the hyaluronic acids. Vitamin C also has a brightening effect. The antioxidant vitamin E helps to combat environmental irritants. Your skin will feel nourished in the morning. This tanner is not only great value, but it also cares for your skin.

5. SkinnyTan Tan&Tone face tanning wonder drops: Best face fake tan drops

Facial fake tan drops may be the right product for you if you are determined to stick to your skincare routine and don’t want to look like you have been dancing with a separate tanning product. You can mix the drops with your moisturiser and decide how dark you want to tan. Tan&Tone face tanning droplets are recommended to be used in a range of three to eight drops. This allows you to be as exact and precise as you like.

SkinnyTan’s tanning drops contain hydrating hyaluronic, vitamin E, and aloe vera. These tanning drops are also cruelty-free, vegan, and fragrance-free. They will give you a glowing tan, not a greasy look. The drops are shiny and golden in the bottle. However, when you mix them with moisturiser, they become more subtle. The coconut oil in this formula gives it a sweet coconut smell. The packaging is delicate and glass. The glass pipette drops are angled at their ends to allow you to control how many drops you disperse.
