It looks amazing on my brown skin. Nonstreaky, no white cast. It gives my skin a subtle shimmer. The video and pics are in direct sunlight so you can see it in full effect [editor's note: see review photo above]. For reference, I have combination, 30-something-year-old skin.

I used it for the first time this morning and could instantly tell a big difference with the first patch of hair I dried. I will definitely NEVER run out of this product again and in fact, I am planning to get the shampoo as well. I highly recommend this product for anyone that has dry or damaged, fine hair." —Stefanie

15. A St. Tropez self-tanning mousse is your saving grace if you're trying to start an even tan before summer rolls around, without the added UVA and UVB damage that traditional sun tanning brings.
Promising review: "I rubbed a small amount on my legs with my hands in the bathtub and waited about 15 minutes before getting dressed in loose clothing. After six hours, I rinsed off as directed (this is actually an important step to avoid it smearing onto sheets/clothing — trust me, you'll still look tan). I went to bed thinking it only gave me a slight tint, but then I woke up the next morning and my legs had darkened to a beautiful, natural color, the same tint I usually achieve by the end of summer. There were no streaks at all." —M Kim
Price: $44

Promising review: "This is my (at least) third jar of Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Mask (vegan!). It is both rich and light in feel and I slather it on before bed. It has a soothing, gentle scent, too. Yummy but not overwhelming. I can struggle with an evening skin care that has too many steps — this is wonderfully one-step (after cleaning). My skin is smoother, softer, brighter. Heartfully recommended." —Johanna
Price: $52
18. An antioxidant-rich serum that makes us believe that the minds behind Shiseido are onto something. This serum is packed with reishi mushroom to help protect against oxidative stress, iris root extract to fortify moisture levels, hydroxyproline, which is a collagen-supporting peptide, and heartleaf extract to help oxygenate the skin.

Promising review: "I have black hair and a sensitive, flaky scalp and this disappears completely into my dark hair and doesn't irritate my scalp. It does have a white cast going on. But leave it alone for a few minutes or longer and then brush it out and it'll absorb. I've used this on day 3 hair after a tough workout and my hair looks good as new. The scent is strong but it reminds me of the Flowerbomb perfume, which I love. Even got compliments the first time I used this!" —Elaine
Price: $28

Your foundation looks flawless, and your skin looks stunning.I wouldn’t switch to any other primer, but this. I’ve tried them all, from Chanel to Christian Dior, [and] pretty much everybody else in between. This is the one!" —Cyndi ab

It’s hard to tell if it’s changed my appearance, but I’m in my mid-30s, and my skin has been pretty good to me for the past year.I’ve had no acne; overall, my skin just looks and feels better. I started using a pricy moisturizer, too, but I’m sure it’s everything combined.Good purchase!" —Corina Grace

Promising review: "This product [is] on the expensive side — it's a miracle in a bottle. It improves redness; it gives an amazing glow the next morning.Oily but you have to use it at night anyways as it's retinol. I use it 5 times a week. It improves acne somehow as well. This is my third bottle in 8 months so it lasts long, you don't have to apply much." —nina1984
