self-tanner

Fake sun glow

Self-tanner is a cosmetic product that darkens the skin without sun exposure, typically through a chemical reaction with proteins in the outer skin layer.

The effect develops over several hours and fades gradually as skin cells shed: I applied self-tanner the night before the wedding.

Also called sunless tanner or fake tan.
