Kim Kardashian's go-to self-tanner for travel is on sale for just $13 at Amazon
It's no surprise that Kim Kardashian travels luxe — she does have her cashmere-covered $150 million private jet she playfully dubbed "Kim Air," after all. Curiously, her travel makeup bag is anything but. While promoting her brand new Skkn by Kim vanity bag on Instagram Reels, she allowed us a peek into her current Chanel one, and perched at the very top was a bottle of her self tanner. The best part? It's on sale for just $13.
It's no wonder the mom of four loves the Ardell's Body Drench Bronzing Spray. It gives you an instant glow, plus it dries down matte and doesn't streak, smear or leave a greasy film. It's wildly easy to apply, too: The nozzle twists 360 degrees, so you can get all those awkward nooks and crannies, like your elbows and behind your knees. It's also not going to leave you looking Oompa Loompa–orange; instead, it imparts a sunkissed, just-spend-a-week-in-Bora-Bora tan.
Plus, unlike some self-tanners, the Ardell formula is made from natural ingredients — think orange extract, cooling aloe vera, hydrating sea kelp, black walnut and soothing chamomile. It's also cruelty-free and made in the USA.
To get the most even tan, make sure to exfoliate your skin prior to application, and spray from 10 inches away. Wash your hands and make sure to wait for it to dry down before putting on your clothes, and then you can head on out looking like a beautifully bronzed goddess.
Amazon shoppers love it just as much as the multi-hyphenate — in fact, over 3,000 of them gave it a perfect five-star review!
Shared one: "I LOVE this tanning spray. In fact, I love it so much I quit tanning and no longer pay tons of money for spray tans because this works just as well, if not better...I've been using this, exclusively, for over a year now and I couldn't be happier. This is the best self tanner out there (trust me, I've tried them ALL)."
One longtime fan swore it's her favorite, too: "I've been tanning since I was 12 years old. I'm in my 60s now, and the 40-some years I tanned are sure showing now. I have tried almost every single self-tanner out there, then I came across this! It is one of the lesser-priced tanners, but you'd never know it. It lasts until your next shower. The most realistic-looking tanner you'll find."
"What a great tanning product!" chimed in a third. "No odor, and it doesn’t turn my skin orange like so many I’ve tried! It’s the best tan in a can!!"
