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.

Personally, im a very pale person, and my natural DARK brown/black hair makes it even more noticable. But honestly, i think its so boring, going to school, and all the girls are blonde/lighter hair and tan. So I will be differentSmile

Mod!
I don't tan I freckle. I was wondering what clothes might help my freckles pop. Do you have any ideas?




Hey girl!

good for you for embracing your freckles! Rich colors like deep purple or sea blue can bring out your pale skin and pretty freckles.




good luck!

How do I get this guy's family to like me or at least accept me? I'm going nuts because I think they don't like me cause I'm not Russian like they are. My proof is that they only invite Russian people over, and I never feel welcome by them. Their parents have never given me eye contact and it make me feel like I'm not anybody to them. HELP PLEASE!




Hey Girl--

I answered your other similar question a little earlier. Being an immigrant is really tough and so his parents probably seek out Russian friends because they can relate to their situations more. I don't think it' likely they are excluding others-- more that it's easier for them to have friends who share the same language and have similar memories of home. I'm sure it has nothing to do with you-- just try to be polite and friendly! 




Good luck!
