Even with no song of the summer in sight (“Stateside” by PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson could be a contender, perhaps?), now is as good a time as ever to put that diligent warm-weather body care routine in motion. A season of wearing less and going out more requires smoothing salves, bronzing potions, and tons of protection, whether traveling internationally or domestically.

For the 2026 First Class Beauty Awards, we sifted through dozens of formulas and highlighted the best-in-class products behind that coveted dolphin-like softness and gleam. These are the standouts we’re gravitating toward for quick bronzing, gentle buffing, and sun protection—and even a nasal remedy so you can stop and smell the blooms from the buzziest scents our ELLE editors loved.

Now boarding: your smoothest skin yet, arriving first class, of course.
