Beauty: self-tanning

"Our tester had it before a January black-tie dinner because she knew she could guarantee getting a golden glow"

Au Courant: offers a choice of four-tone tanning mediums, either a spray or hand-applied gel, mousse or lotion.When to have it: Ideal if you are new to fake tanning and nervous about it - you control the tan intensity and the application method; if you want self-tan manually applied but prefer the lightweight texture of a gel or a mousse to cream or lotion.

When not to have it: No occasion, and it is suitable all year round. Our tester had it before a January black-tie dinner because she knew she could guarantee getting a golden glow - more realistic and sophisticated at that time of year - rather than a full-on deep tan.

USPs: The choices in tan depth and applications; mild, pleasant scent.

Cost: £40
