To get a beautiful bronzed glow, exfoliate every other day in the summer with a product like L'Oreal Paris Go 360 Clean, $5.97. Fresh, exfoliated skin will hold color from sunless tanners and bronzers much longer, and prevent streaky or patchy color. After exfoliating, apply a gradual self-tanner made for the face (try Coppertone Gradual Tan Faces Moisturizing Lotion , $4.99).

Instead, go with a matte bronzer that is about one to two shades darker than your skin tone (try Physicians Formula Baked Pyramid Matte Bronzer, $11.95). Brush it onto your forehead, nose, cheeks and chin -- all the spots where the sun would naturally tan your face. Next, apply a blush in a peach-tone (for a hint of natural color) like Covergirl Cheekers Blush in Pretty Peach, $4 to the apples of your cheeks.
