Origins Sunny Disposition Liquid Bronzer$19.50"Spread sunshine on your face." Aww, who couldn't love that pitch? This liquid bronzer is easy to use because it's creamy rather than drippy; you won't suffer the streaks you get with competing brands. It looks a tad pink at first, but the effect is pure healthy glow that washes off with the rest of your makeup. O...More

CARGO Bronzer$25.00What's not to love? A surprisingly large tin of pressed powder contains natural-looking colors rich enough to blend into fading tan lines. Expect slight iridescence, but not junior-high glitter. The four shades can make cheekbones and eyelids on fair to medium skins look sun-kissed, not like you've OD'd on beta-carotene. Bu...More

Nars Highlighting/Bronzing Blush Duo$37.00Many makeup artists recommend applying blush on cheeks after using bronzer to make a faux tan look more natural. That's exactly why Nars Highlighting/Bronzing Blush Duo is a keeper, with bronzer/highlighter on one side and blush on the other. (No brush though; you'll need your own). The powder formulas are shimmery enough t...More

Benefit Hoola Bronzing Powder$28Gem of a box, worthy of displaying sink-side, with a cute name and a perfect brown-y bronze powder inside. The color inside is flat matte, not a sparkle to be found, making it utterly realistic for a range of skin tones. The texture is silky and won't get streaky, as long as you ditch the tiny square brush that comes with i...More

Urban Decay Baked Bronzer$24.00The name of Urban Decay's Baked Bronzer fits on many levels. One, the pressed powder is literally baked in an oven. Two, a few swipes with a powder brush makes you look as if you've been baking in the sun. And three, the chocolate smell is reminiscent of baking brownies (yum). Undeniably cute, the product also performs well...More

Sugar Cosmetics Tropic Tan$25.00Though geared toward teens, Sugar Tropic Tan isn't as adolescent as it looks. Sans brush and inconveniently large (almost compact disc-sized), the mirrored compact may not seem worth $25 at first. But one application lasts all day and one purchase, all year. Available only in Sunkissed Bronze, the buildable, pressed powder ...More

Bonne Bell Gel Bronze$3.99Great for those gun-shy of facial self-tanners, this oil-free bronzer gives you a natural-looking glow without streaking, and it washes off easily. It acts like a stain, so you do have to wash your hands after applying (or use a makeup sponge to apply) -- not so great for on-the-go use. The color is sheer and build-able, th...More

Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Makeup Mosaic Bronzer$18.00The multi-colored quality in the three shade options of Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Mosaic Bronzer makes it adaptable for many skin tones, including very fair-skinned girls like myself. One swirl of the hard-packed, pressed powder will give skin a touch of warmth that doesn't look fake or cakey. (If you want major bronzing ...More

Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel$48.00The velvety texture of this medium-coverage bronzer is a dream. The oil-free, subtly luminous powder blends seamlessly, making a faux glow practically goof-proof. The finished look isn't cakey and the product doesn't shift or settle throughout the day -- even on combo skin. It's available in five shades and includes a brush...More
