We're going to be honest. There aren't many products on the market that can fake a convincing lit-from-within glow. Sure, there are cream bronzers, dewy liquid highlighters and strobe creams – which all do a fantastic job – but these are all short-term fixes to a much sought after skin finish.
What you really need is a good, long-lasting tanning product, which is not only easy to use but can be smoothly slipped in and out of your routine. Enter Tan-Luxe The Face Illuminating Self-Tan Drops, £21.60.
It's earned the seal of approval from Made in Chelsea star Emily Blackwell and for good reason. The drops, which are available in two shades Light/Medium and Medium/Dark, offer a tailored tanning system which works in synergy with your existing skincare routine.
You can either add a couple of drops to your daily moisturiser or serum and slather over your skin, or like Blackwell, you can apply it straight from the pipette onto your face and sweep down your neck and ears to create an even, glowy finish.
This is what we like to call 'holiday in a bottle': that fresh sun-kissed look, which says 'Yes, I've just come back from Mallorca and I am well-rested'.
Boosted with Raspberry Seed Oil, Vitamin E and Aloe Vera, the product takes care of your skin while sprucing it up, leaving it feeling nourished and hydrated. The clever technology encapsulated in each drop also adapts to your skin tone, meaning you can create a totally custom glow that is completely unique to you.
It's safe to say, if the cast of Channel 4's Made in Chelsea Mallorca are using this product having already indulged in the Spanish sun – that speaks volumes enough.
