There are so many self-tanning products on the market, it's hard to know where to start. To help you sort it all out, the iVillage Beauty team tried several. The good news is they're all pretty good! It's safe to say that with today's self-tanners, the danger of "going orange" is a thing of the past. And there are some that are outstanding. These are our favorites (check back throughout the summer as we'll be adding more!):

Nicole, producer, medium-toned skin
Self-Tanner: Estée Lauder Go Bronze Tinted Self-Tanner for Body
Price: $25
Available: EsteéLauder.com, department stores
Ease of application: It was very easy, because it's tinted and you see where it goes.
Fragrance: It smells like most other self-tanners.
What color tan did you get? I got a nice, honey-golden brown with a bit of sparkle. The sparkle surprised me, but I loved it. The sparkle diminished after a shower, but it lasted for another day.
How long did it last? Three to four days.
Would you do it again? Definitely yes! I've been a sun worshipper for years, but I confess, this product has convinced me otherwise. Now I feel much more confident that I can use a self-tanner and achieve a look close to my normal tan.
