NeoStrata Bionic Lotion, €50.35, selected pharmacies nationwide

There’s no denying that this is a high price for a body lotion, but a little goes a long way, and has an impressive effect on your skin. Suitable for face and body, the key ingredient is polyhydroxy acids (PHAs), which are extra-gentle exfoliants that help to resurface and bind moisture to the skin. How this relates to self-tan is that it gently sloughs off tanned dead skin cells and also softens those danger spots, such as heels and elbows. “With a tan, I found that this cream kept it more even,” a panellist said.
