Honorable Mention: Lancôme Visionnaire Nuit Beauty Sleep Perfector
Readers' Choice Winner: Olay Regenerist Night Recovery Cream

Best Self Tanner for Face
Why: This lightweight face cream simultaneously bronzes skin and fights wrinkles and pigmentation. In addition to a natural-looking glow, it moisturizes and offers antioxidant protection via green tea, broccoli seed and vitamins D and E. Plus, it has a pretty vanilla scent instead of the typical self-tanner smell.
Honorable Mention: Vita Liberata Trystal Self Tanning Bronzing Minerals
Readers' Choice Winner: Clarins Intense Bronze Self Tanning Tint
Why: "This is a superior facial tanner that doesn't clog pores and gives instant color that lasts for days. It goes on dark but develops into a natural-looking tan that doesn't leave you streaky or orange."
Honorable Mention: Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Alpha Beta Glow Pads
