The image features a light blue background with white line art of seashells, starfish, and sea creatures. Overlayed in the center is the text 'rating self tans' in bold blue, with 'as someone addicted to tanning' below it in lighter blue.

A tube of a natural glow daily moisturizer for fair to medium skin tones is shown. The text overlay rates it 4/10, describing it as a good starter tan that was streaky on hands and didn't last long.

A bottle of dark express self-tan mousse is displayed. The text overlay rates it 8/10, noting its loved color but clear formula sometimes caused missed spots and it didn't last very long.
