Wanna keep your golden glow all the way through to BTS? We’ve rounded up our top three formulas for a flawless, even faux tan. Plus, we’re dishing on more ways to make your tan look awesome.
 
Mist: The Quick Fix
You might need to go outside just to spray this tanning mist on, but be prepared for a beautiful, speedy glow! You can get results in less than 5 hours, making this a great quick fix for a last-minute outing!
 

Body Drench QuickTan Sunless Tanning Mist, $14, bebeautiful.com
 
Accessorize for your glow
Start by wearing bright colors! These bangles make your tan POP because of the neon’s contrast with your skin. They turn up the dial on your tan no matter your skin tone!
 

Neon Hint Bangle Set, $6, forever21.com


Bronzing Tint: Be a Sun Queen
Are you ready for a rich, tropical skin tone with no mistakes? This tint allows you to see exactly where the product was applied, leaving no room for missteps or errors! A streak-free glow...could you ask for more?

 

Clarins Intense Bronze Self Tanning Tint, $34, sephora.com
 
Dress to Impress
Need a boost for your already-fab tan look? Shimmy into a warm or neutral toned shirt before going out on the town with your girls. The warm palette accentuates the warmer tones in your skin, making you look (fancy that) even more tan!
 

Love Is Free Racerback Tank, $13, forever21.com
 

Lotion: Score a subtle glow

For those with lighter natural skin tones, this product can give you the tan you want without an unnatural (aka streaky or orange) appearance. This double-duty self-tanner--it’s also a moisturizer AND a firming lotion--will help your skin to just the shade you desire. Hello, natural-looking tan!
 

Jergens Natural Glow, $9, jergens.com

 

White hot
Slip on some white shorts to show off those tan gams. A little cool creasing lends a rocker vibe. Add strappy sandals, and apply a little argan oil to legs for sheen.
 

Cuffed Perma-Creased Denim Shorts, $20, forever21.com

Please help! I have these AWFUL tan lines on my legs from my soccer uniform and I really want to get rid of them before school starts! I've tried laying out in the sun and I've used a few different tanning products, but nothing seems to work fast enough! What can I do to get rid of my tan lines quickly and harmlessly? And how can I keep the tan lines from coming back again? Thanks Smile




 Hey girl!

No more tanning please! It can cause cancer-- not to mention wrinkles and brown spots! Now that i've lectured you, my best advice is to just let it fade. Honestly, a lot of people love the look of tan lines. Either way, I doubt you'll be the only girl at school with tan lines. Hey, it's a great convo starter!

Hey Daddy'sgrl12, it can be really hard to tell ver the Internet, so it's best to go to a makeup counter at the mall and ask for help. You can go to Macy's or Nordstrom, or specific makeup stores and ask sales associates to help you find your shade. Hope this helps! Xoxo

How can you tell what your concealer tone is... Because I've never worn makeup before and I need something to cover uP pimples but I don't know what color to buy. Thanks!!! Lynae P.

Hey! Yesterday I went out with my friends but towards when we were leaving & when I got home I realized my makeup was RUINED. I was only wearing some eyeliner & some foundation/powder but my eyeliner was sooooooo smeared & my foundation was pretty much gone! What's going on?? I wasn't touching my face or rubbing my eyes or anything!

 

hey! was it hot out? maybe it melted a bit ?

there are some questions i asked u mods but you didn't reply to my problems.however you answered other's problems!what gives? Frown

 

Hey chica! We try to answer everyone's questions.  There are times in the day when mods aren't on (late at night and early in the morning), so sometimes it takes awhile for mods to catch up with all of the questions you guys ask.  If you put mod mod mod at the top of your comment, we should answer it (some mods don't answer if you post the same question over and over).  If you posted late at night or early in the morning, make sure you are looking through older comments to see if we got to your question when you weren't looking! xoxo
