5 Self-Tanners For Pale Skin That Won’t Look Orange appeared first on OLENA.
I really want this summer to be perfect for you! If you are like me, you don’t tan easily but burn in moments. It’s hard to get a beautiful tan on pale skin and nearly impossible to find a self-tanner that looks natural.
I recently published a few tips for self-tanning without orange results but I know that pale skin requires a special approach. As always, I am turning to The Gloss for great advice:1. Gradual Self-Tanning Face Water ($16, Sephora)
Instead of the usual lotion formula, this gradual tanner comes in a liquid that you apply to your face with a cotton pad. It gets darker with each application so you can build up the color for the perfect faux glow.
If you read the article on self-tanning last week, you know that liquid self-tanners are perfect for the food color trick: simply add a few drops of liquid red food color and you will create a beautiful orange-free tan every time. Details here.
2. Sunless Tanning Gradual Tan Moisturizing Lotion ($8.99, Coppertone)
Build the tan you want with this quick-drying lotion. The formula blends with your skin to create the right tan, so you don’t have to worry about any dramatic white to neon orange transformations.
3. Natural Glow Revitalizing Daily Moisturizer In Fair to Medium Skin Tone ($6.55, Jergens)
This is a great starting point for self-tanning newbies. It’s a tinted moisturizer that gently builds up glow with minimal risk.
4. BB Gradual Tan For Face In Light ($25, James Read)
If you have pale skin, “gradual” is always a reassuring word in tanning product titles.
This formula comes in a light and medium version and has the benefits of a BB cream.
5. Sun-Kissed Radiance Gradual Tanner & Body Lotion In Fair To Medium ($10.99, Nivea)
Pale and dry skin is a very difficult combination. This is a great product for those willing to build a natural looking tan while moisturizing your skin.
