This Product Is The Secret To Achieving a Glowing, Bronzed Look For Dark Skin

As someone with a deep, sometimes uneven complexion, I’ve tried (and often failed) to discover products that leave me glowing inside out. Without a doubt, as we head into summer, self-tanners will be promoted as the must-have product for glowing, gorgeous skin whether you have a plane ticket to sun-soaked destination or not. Unfortunately, those with darker skin tones are often left out of the conversations around tanning, as much of it is associated with the idea of deepening one’s natural skin. But what about tanning products and practices that even, brighten, and illuminate those with naturally deep skin tones? 

Let’s start with a fact: tanning is for everyone. For individuals with darker complexions who desire a noticeably even more vibrant skin tone, self-tanners are a must-have product year-round. “For those with a deep skin tone, using a self-tanner enables them to eliminate dull skin and achieve a healthy, hydrated glow,” says celebrity spray-tan artist and founder of Dolce Glow, Isabel Alysa. Most recently, Alysa’s work can be found making headlines as the spray-tan artist behind Sofia Richie’s ultra-chic wedding look. Her brand, Dolce Glow, offers accessible self-tanning products for all skin tones, ethnicities, and body types.
