No. 9: Aveeno Continuous Radiance Moisturizing Lotion, $11.99

TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 8*
Why: Readers love how this product gives moisture, a tan and no streaks. "This not only gives you the moisture and softness you need, but it adds a nice sun-kissed glow without streaks or an orange cast," said one reader. While another agrees: "LOVE this self-tanner. I used this ALL winter, almost every day, and I never looked fake or orange-y." One reader gives it a "TEN TEN TEN!" while another calls it a "winter lifesaver." One woman with blotchy skin says, "I like the tint in the Aveeno Moisturizing Lotion. It really tones and evens my skin out before I apply my liquid makeup." Another woman also loved "the fact that it wasn't all oily, it was super moisturizing. I really had a change of heart about instant tanning, and I can say that Aveeno hasn't ever let me down."

This is a great article for people to read because based on some of the walking disasters I've seen, some ladies don't have a clue. One of the biggest problems I have with most tanners is the smell. I have had staff walk into my office at work and say (with grimaces on their faces) "what is that smell?" That is tres embarrassing!

I have gotten so used to being pale it is a little intimidating to try another self tanner.

I'm not really keen on tanning, but for those who are, the new tanners from Sephora (the Sephora collection) are AWESOME. I actually tried a little bit on one arm and the next day I had a farmers tan from where I applied it and stopped where my tshirt sleeve started. haha!

i recently had to stop tanning and hate how i look when i'm pale. i'm going to try the aveeno, loreal, and banana boat. think i'll try the banana boat first. i've never used a self tanner and this makes me so nervous,i don't want to be orange........
