The best face tanning products to achieve that perfect sun-kissed glow

No break-outs in sight!

Sure, many of us want summery bronzed skin, but sun damage is so totally last year. Instead, more and more people are turning to fake tan and bronzers to imitate that sun-kissed look in a much safer fashion. 

Although many of us have our favourite ride-or-die tanning brands that we’ve been using for years, the face is a whole different ballpark. 

Fake tan can look patchy, stick in your hair line and even cause breakouts if you don’t choose the right product. But lucky for you, we’ve rounded up the best!
