If you want a beautiful golden tan, there is only one safe way to get it and that is with a self-tanner.

There are a lot of great self-tanning options available these days. From lotions and creams to mousses and sprays, there is an option that will give you the beautiful faux glow you want.

What is so great about self-tanners on the market now is that they are made to give you a more believable brown color that lasts longer and most have special scent technology so that telltale self-tanner scent is no longer an issue.

I am a big self-tanner fan and use them on the regular.

Plus I discovered the best new way to apply self-tanner, so you need to read to the end of the post so you can be assured you get an even, flawless streak-free tan too.
