OUR FAVOURITE THINGS
Get glowing this summer with the best bronzers and self-tanners
Summer is finally here and most of us want to look like a bronzed beauty, but there’s nothing chic about sunburns, skin damage and premature aging. To get prepped, start out by sloughing off dead skin cells with an exfoliator such as 1. Lush Rub Rub Rub Shower Scrub ($8.95, 100g; $15.95, 250g; $24.95, 500g, lush.ca) or 2. J.R. Watkins Naturals Coconut Sugar and Shea Body Scrub ($15.99, jrwatkins.com) for smooth and touchable skin.
Rather than reaching for a cream, we prefer spray self-tanners for getting hard to reach spots like your back. Try 3. Rodial Tan Airbrush ($49, 200ml, available at The Bay and Murale), 4. Lancaster Fast Dry Bronze Water Spray ($36, available at select Shoppers Drug Mart and Murale) and 5. Bourjois Paris Délice de Soleil Bronzing Powder for Face and Body ($26, available at Shoppers Drug Mart). Or if you’re a pro with lotion pick up Victoria’s Secret Beach Sexy Custom Tan Adjustable Self-Tan Lotion with Shimmer ($14, victoriassecret.com), which has the unique ability to adjust the shade, making sure you get the best match for your skin tone.
