Sun-kissed skin is in. But lucky for us, you don’t need to escape to Ibiza in order to get it. A few key products are all you need for a bronzed, whole-body look. Because as much as we love lounging poolside, we’re not so keen on the sun damage that may follow. With this lineup from Ulta Beauty, you can wear your SPF 55 and have your glow, too. From bronzing mousse to glow drops, these nine products prove a healthy tan doesn’t begin at the beach, but rather at your vanity. Feel free to pick and choose, layer, or mix and match to create your ultimate summer glow.
Cream Bronzer
Formulated with shea butter, this cream bronzer glides smoothly onto skin and provides a shimmery, pearl-like finish. Part highlighter, part bronzer, it delivers a warm luminosity that’s a refreshing summertime swap for your traditional matte bronzer.
Skin Illuminating Balm
Thanks to its balm-like consistency, this highlighter-bronzer duo melts into skin, providing a buildable, radiant sheen that reflects light and complements all skin tones. Whether you apply it on bare skin, under foundation, or over foundation, it’s an easy way to boost your summer glow.
Powder Blush Stick
Faking a sunburn isn’t just a trendy makeup aesthetic, it’s also the key to creating a natural sun-kissed look. Use this powder-blush stick to swipe buildable color across your cheeks and nose in a “W” formation, resulting in a perfectly flushed complexion that’ll level-up your post-beach glow.
Glow Drops
A lit-from-within luminosity doesn’t have to require much effort. These liquid bronzing drops can be mixed with your foundation, moisturizer, or applied as-is over your entire body for a subtle yet effective golden glow. The silky, multi-tasking formula is also packed with antioxidants to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Highlight Beauty Wand
Highlighter is necessary for a well-rounded sun-kissed effect because it balances the warmth of bronzer with a touch of brightness. This liquid version uses reflective properties to enhance your complexion, ensuring a natural, dewy glow that rivals an actual day in the sun.
Self-Tan Bronzing Mousse
Treat yourself to a full-body tan before summer even starts. With its streak-free, easy-to-apply formula, this tinted tanning mousse is practically a vacation in a bottle.
Firming Body Oil
Keep your tan hydrated and glowy with this lightweight body oil. Infused with a blend of apricot, acai, and geranium oils, the non-greasy formula is both moisturizing and firming. While the scent alone will transport you to summer days at the beach, it’s the healthy, all-over shine that’ll keep you applying all season long.
Clear Self Tan Gel
If you’re new to self-tanning, this gel is an unintimidating product to start with. Unlike most tanners, the fool-proof formula is clear and doesn’t require rinsing. Plus, it smells like pineapple.
Herbal Body Oil
A tan is just a tan until you add a touch of illuminating shimmer. This hemp-seed body oil will elevate your skin to radiant, sun-kissed status with a hydrating formula that contains aloe vera and shea butter. No vacation necessary.
