I still lay out from time to time but mostly I use self tanner. I use two--one is a cheap walmart brand one that smells like creamsicles and the other is from Victorias Secret. It instantly bronzes you and works AMAZINGGGG. Doesnt smell either, it actually smells like oranges (so it works well mixing the two). The only con about the VS one is that its only available from like April to Julyish
