Coppertone Gradual Tan Sunless Tanning Lotion Faces

Chicago, IL 60614

Niki C. writes: For an even, non-orange-y tan on your face, this product really does work nicely as both a self-tanner & a moisturizer.  It's gradual, so it doesn't deposit a lot of color right away, but after a few daily applications, it's a nice smooth tan look…

Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Body Glow Moisturizer Medium

Chicago, IL 60614

Niki C. writes: This is another gradual tan lotion that works very well.  Make sure you exfoliate well before application, though, & let it dry enough.  My mistake was to put on knee-high boots about ten minutes afterwards ... the color was splotchy, but through no…
