Self-tanning towelettes make it easy to get a natural-looking glow for your big day
You may be dodging cancers and wrinkles, but self-tanners have their own set of issues—weird smells, streaking and the risk of looking like one of Willy Wonka’s Oompa Loompas.
Self-tanning wipes are great if you go the at-home application route. Unlike sprays, you have more control over where it’s applied (circular motion over the desired area), and the majority of wipes have a lovely citrus aroma, as opposed to their odorous lotion counterparts. Not to mention, the individual towelettes are easy to travel with for any touch-ups needed on the big day.
