sun-kissed look. Iconic London is one brand offering a solution, rising to fame after the release of its viral liquid illuminator drops. The brand's Bronzing Elixir, £25, describes

itself as "a hydrating, tinted elixir that delivers a bronzed glow" - at the time of writing Debenhams has it on offer for £20. Praised by shoppers for its "natural" and

"smooth" look, the tinted water can be mixed in with your moisturiser and is designed to look like you've just got back from holiday. Boots has reduced the price of the Drunk

Elephant D-Bronzi™ Bronzing Drops 30ml, now down to £26.52 from £34 - this is another popular option and also contains antioxidants to help "boost the skin's defences against

pollution and environmental stressors". READ MORE: Next's 'perfect fit' £24 linen dress 'for the warmer weather' READ MORE: I picked four New Look summer

dresses for less than £20 each in the bank holiday sale Both the Iconic London and Drunk Elephant options come in "one universal colour", but if you're looking for some

variation, the Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop'Lit All-Over Glow Enhancer has been reduced from £29 down to £23.20 at LookFantastic and comes in four colours. Iconic London's Bronzing

Elixir has been praised for delivering more of a 'natural' look. So far, it's received a 4.58/5 star score on the website, although Debenhams offers the most competitive price

at the time of writing. One user Adriana said: "A real tan. It looks like I went to the beach except it is real bronze and not as red and I usually turn. I like the bronze look and

blend it in my upper body to create a smooth real bronze. Love it." A second shopper said: "Beautiful subtle tan look. As a pale girl, getting a natural tan can be a struggle, but

this bronzing elixir makes my face look like I spent a couple of weeks under the sun." Rachael didn't find the elixir gave her enough colour, writing: "Bought this to give me

the well documented ‘glow’ but even if I mix it with a moisturiser it doesn’t really do anything to the colour of my skin. I get a better ‘sun kissed glow’ with cheaper bronzing drops."

Stefany on the other hand said: "This gives the most natural-looking glow. It blends beautifully into the skin and adds a soft warmth without looking orange or muddy. Perfect for that

effortless sun-kissed look." Sahi added: "I have oily skin, so I’m usually cautious with anything that promises a glow, but the Bronzing Elixir completely won me over. It gives a

really natural, sun-kissed look without looking shiny or feeling greasy. I love that it’s more of a soft, healthy radiance rather than anything glittery." Article continues below

Shoppers should note there are cheaper alternatives on the market, for example Amazon has the e.l.f. SKIN Bronzing Drops at the reduced price of £10.25, at the time of writing. You can pick

these up in three colours: rose gold, pure gold, and copper gold, however some shoppers have noted they deliver a slightly 'orange' look to the skin.
