How Brown Women Can Embrace a Sunless Tan, Too

Below, an edit of self-tanning solutions that deliver a sun-kissed bronze to brown and Black skin tones. 

Isle of Paradise Drop, Blend, and Glow Bundle Green

For deeper-skinned girlies, these self-tan drops are the easiest route to a post-vacay bronze. Squeeze a few drops (founder Jules Von Hep’s magic number is between 2-6) into your facial and body moisturizers, respectively, and use the plush kabuki brush to buff it in for a top-shelf glow. They’re easy and effective, perfect for beginners and advanced users alike, and loaded with skin-nourishing ingredients, so ashy limbs will never be in your future.
