Olay Body Touch of Sun Overnight, $7, www.olay.com Use this before bedtime and wake up to a tanner you. We love the soothing lavender and chamomile scent in this nourishing body lotion, too.
Banana Boat Every Day Glow SunDial Self-Tanning Moisturizer, $12, www.walgreens.com A handy dial you adjust allows you to get the color you want, so you can decide if you want to go for seriously tan or slightly bronze. It's also oil-free and quick-drying, so you can apply it and not worry about staining your clothing.
Neutrogena Summer Glow Daily Moisturizer SPF 15, $12, www.drugstore.com This ultra-light, non-greasy facial moisturizer is perfect for warmer weather because it won't make your skin feel gunked up. The SPF protects you from the sun, and the anti-oxidants give your skin added defense against the elements, too.
Bliss A Tan for All Seasons, $36, www.blissworld.com From the hot New York City salon, this wildly popular citrus-scented self-tanner makes it easy to hit those hard-to-reach spots like your back. It goes on bronze, too, so you'll know exactly where you need coverage.
Almay Sunless Tanning Cream for Body SPF 15, $10, www.drugstore.com Great for sensitive skin, this cream gives you lovely color, aloe and cucumber to soften skin, and mega sun protection so you can put it on before you hit the beach (wait two hours before getting in the water, though!).
