There are many things associated with winter, but bronzed skin is definitely not one of them. In sub-zero temperatures, our skin is barely exposed to the elements thanks to thick and cozy clothing and the sun is more often than not hard to find. In order to look tan in the winter (without taking a tropical vacation), you’re left with a few options. You could visit a tanning bed (which we at Skincare.com don’t recommend) or you could use a self-tanning formula that can deliver a streak-free, natural-looking tan easily and—most importantly—safely. Ready to bid farewell to your pale winter skin? Below, check out five of our favorite self-tanners from L’Oréal Paris that work like a charm.SUBLIME BRONZE SELF-TANNING WATER MOUSSEOne of the main concerns you may have of self-tanners is whether or not the formulas will rub off on your clothing and look natural. With the Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Water Mousse, you can put those worries aside. Formulated with vitamin E and coconut water, this medium-toned self-tanner leaves behind a natural-looking glow. It’s an invisible feel with no rub-off or streaking to fear.
