I would admittedly slather anything on my face if Kelly Ripa told me to. The talk show host has achieved an ageless complexion thanks to a tried-and-true skincare regimen of luxe creams and oils (and yes, an annual sprinkle of Botox too).
It only makes sense that when I found myself grappling with dry, dull skin at the start of fall, I thought to myself, “What would Kelly Ripa do?” I found my answer with U Beauty’s Bronze Glow Trio, which includes these “remarkable” bronzing drops she says “stain nothing,” as well as the brand’s shopper-loved Resurfacing Compound and Super Hydrator.
Each product in the limited edition trio works together to create brighter, tighter, and hydrated skin — with an added glow thanks to the bronzing drops. The latter of which I already need mere weeks in October. Right now, you can snag the value set for 20 percent off with code DDM20 at checkout.

The Resurfacing Compound is formulated with antioxidants, stabilized vitamin C and E, stable retinol, and multi-hydroxy acids to create smoother, brighter, and fresher skin in as early as three days. The serum diminishes pores, brightens dark spots, and even fades fine lines and wrinkles, while its partner-in-crime product — aka the Super Hydrator — enhances results with its own ultra-hydrating ingredients. The intense cream moisturizes your skin for up to 48 hours and replenishes dry, dehydrated skin. The hyaluronic acid-packed Tan-Luxe bronzing drops can be combined on top of those steps to add a summery glow.
According to the brand, you’ll want to start by applying two to three pumps of the Resurfacing Compound to your skin after cleansing, before combining Tan-Luxe’s tanning drops with a few pumps of the Super Hydrator. Just note, the more drops you add to your moisturizer, the deeper your tan will develop — and don’t forget to thoroughly wash your hands afterward, or you’ll wind up with orange palms. Not that I’m speaking from personal experience or anything.
I was sold on the U Beauty bronzing trio from the jump thanks to its $158 price valued at $206. That’s a real steal considering that the 15mL Resurfacing Compound is $88 alone. However, after only a week, I fell in love with the product bundle for more reasons than just the cost. It has quickly become a staple in my own skincare routine, and one I don’t see myself changing anytime soon — or maybe ever.
The Resurfacing Compound has a reputation for a reason, and in conjunction with the Super Hydrator, I quickly noticed an overall brighter complexion. After a week or two of consistent use, my dark spots lightened, my skin looked plumper, and it felt so soft to the touch that I couldn’t believe I had wasted years on drugstore creams. In fact, the trio is so effective that I’ve started wearing less and less makeup. The tone and texture of my skin have drastically improved, while the Tan-Luxe bronzing drops provide a golden-brown glow that boosts my skin’s appearance overall.
One shopper said that the “holy grail” bundle simplified their “morning and nightly skincare routine” and reduced sensitivities like “minor breakouts.” Other customers said that their complexion has “never looked better” and leaves their “skin feeling like silk.” A third person called the trio a “miracle worker” on “fine lines, pores, and texture,” and added that it creates “luminosity and a beautiful glow.”
