It would be sublime if I could acquire a bit of a glow

I love L'Oréal's Sublime Glow for fair skin tones. Unfortunately L'Oréal has stopped making it, curse them. Jergens Natural Glow turned me orange. What's a good equivalent product that will give me a bit of a healthy, sun-kissed glow as opposed to making me look like a certain Cheeto-esque presidential candidate?

Looks like your preferred brand/variety is still available all over eBay. Might be worth stocking up!

I'm pretty picky about self tanners, and I really like Nivea's Sun Kissed Radiance lotion. Their fair version is really subtle so I never get white streaks where I missed application, and I like the smell better than other brands.

I've been using L'Oreal's Sublime Bronze this year in the medium shade. It works pretty well and doesn't seem streaky, overly orange, or obnoxiously smelly.

However, it is a bit glittery. Be forewarned. I tend to put it on at night so I don't sparkle at work all day.

FWIW, you can still get Sublime Glow at Amazon. Stock up? My wife did that with a foundation she loved but was discontinued.

Response by poster: I am aware that it is still possible to buy Sublime Glow on eBay and Amazon, and did buy my last three or four tubes of it in a bulk order from eBay a year or so ago, but that tends to be expensive (even if the product is a decent price, there are shipping costs to factor in), and the old stock won't last forever. I'm looking for a reasonably priced replacement product that I can buy in a store as often as a I need it.
