Maintain a sunny vibe

SHIMMER ON: Lavera’s Sunless Tan is available at lavera.com for $27.50.

To help maintain a sunny vibe when you get back to town, try a mineral-based bronzer. Conventional ones can be loaded with synthetic chemicals linked to cancer or hormone disruption. Though there are many “natural” offerings, you may feel safer stroking on a product certified petrochemical-free by a reputable third party. Two bronzers for your face and body that bear the impeccable BDIH seal are Lavera’s Sunless Tan ($27.50, lavera.com) and Dr Hauschka’s Translucent Bronze Concentrate ($34.95, drhauschka.com). Physicians Formula Organic Wear ($13.95, physiciansformula.com) delivers an Ecocert-certified brush-on bronzer. Shimmer on, synthetic-free.
