Next, for those looking for a bit more of a commitment from their tanning products, try the Natura Bisse Self Tanner SPF 10 cream. After trying a multitude of products, from every price range, this bottle actually stands true to its word. The color is beautiful on face or body and looks natural, without streaking. To repeat, there is no streaking. Really. We kept looking for the inevitable stripes. It’s regenerating and hydrating for the skin, is anti-free radical and provides sun protection. A must-try for those who like a gradual man-made tan. Available at Barneys New York in Beverly Hills.

Lastly, the Thibiant Beverly Hills Day Spa caters to both the wealthy and the tanning challenged. Entering the tranquil and luxurious spa, it is easy to forget that you are not at a five star resort on the coast of St. Tropez soaking in the rays. The Body Glow treatment will buy you 80 minutes of pampering that includes a neck to toe massage using a soothing warm, exfoliating scrub. A refreshing Vichy shower removes residue and leaves skin spotless and smooth. Tanning lotion is carefully applied by hand while guests are left to relax as the lotion dries. It takes up to four hours for the natural glow to develop. While the color itself is completely natural looking, it wasn’t too much different than the originating shade. All in all, the body scrub and massage were the real vacation, and the tanning lotion was just an added bonus. At least you can walk out with the state of mind that you’re glow came UV-free.
