This no-rinse face tan provides instant bronzing—I look like I've just stepped off the plane

I have made my dislike for fake tanning known, but that doesn't mean I don't get regularly tempted by the promise of an enhanced glow. However, it takes a pretty special (and very low-maintenance) product to sway me. After testing for a few weeks, I'm very pleased to report that St. Tropez's new Sunlit Skin Self Tan Express bronzing drops have managed it—and I'm convinced that there's nothing else like these on the market right now.

What makes the best fake tan for your face depends on the kind of look you're after. As someone with fair skin, I always want to keep things very natural and fresh, so I need a product that has a subtle finish and can be built up if necessary. I'm also impatient, so bronzing drops with instant colour payoff have always appealed to me.
