For Easy, Sweep On and Go
Viktor and Rolf Bonbon Body Shimmer Powder, $80
This is a body shimmer Elle Woods would undoubtedly be obsessed with. The pink particles give skin a luminous, soft shimmer with a lingering hint of the brand's fan-favorite Bonbon fragrance -- a sugary-sweet (but not cloying) scent that has notes of caramel, fruit and flowers. The powder puff applicator feels very Old Hollywood movie star.
Victoria's Secret Instant Bronzing Shimmer Powder, $24
If you're having flashbacks to middle school run-ins with Victoria's Secret shimmer lotion, you needn't worry -- the shimmer the fluffy brush deposits on your skin is surprisingly subtle and sophisticated. It gives skin a nice glow without being over-the-top, and the giant brush makes it incredibly fun (and easy) to apply).
Michael Kors Leg Shine, $32
This deodorant-shaped stick opens to a rich brown stick with golden sparkles that only looks intimidating. On skin, it's actually quite subtle, giving it a glowing sheen with just a few swipes across your legs. The hints of incense and woodsy notes add a sexiness to the floral scent. Plus, the solid formula is perfect for packing on vacay.

For a Tinted Shimmer Spray
Bliss Fat Girl Slim Hide & Glow Seek, $38
This tinted body spray goes on with nary a streak in sight; once applied, the pearly tint instantly smoothes and camouflages imperfections (like veins and even cellulite). The spray also contains a potent blend of moisturizing maracuja oil, free radical-battling vitamin E, toning peptides and de-puffing caffeine. And though it stays on all day without smearing, it only takes some body wash and a bit of water to remove it at the end of the day.
Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs, $13.99
This ultra-lightweight spray virtually eliminates things like freckles, veins and bruises, leaving legs ready for short skirts. Simply spray on the moisturizing formula (it's got palmaria extract to condition dull skin) and blend it in for budge-proof coverage that lasts all day and doesn't look fake. Bonus: It comes in five shades, so everyone from the super pale to deep skin can get their glow on.
