We would recommend choosing the shade that best describes your current skin-tone, not the tone you want to achieve. If you have fair or have a slightly discolored uneven skin tone, use the peach drops, formulated with OXY-glow, which will give you a day out in the sun, light sun-kissed tan. If you have some redness or light/medium complexion use the green drops, formulated with SuperBalance complex, for a weekend away medium golden glow. If you have yellow or sallow skin-tone or a more olive complexion, use the violet drops, formulated with HyperViolet complex, for a tropical vacation dark bronzed glow and to brighten the skin. If you are unsure, you can send us a picture of your skin tone and we would be more than happy to advise which shade is best for you.
