Sunless tanning products are simply the safest way to achieve a tan and are definitely the best alternative for those who burn easily. Although, I don't think we really need to worry about burning in January which is exactly why you might want to think about using a self tanner. Getting rid of your pale winter skin doesn't require a vacation to the tropics even though that would be nice. I have compiled a list of top selling self tanners which alleviates some of the guess work when trying to pick one for yourself.
