These are some of the best selling summer beauty purchases on Amazon

And a lot of them have something to do with tanning

It’s easy to spend way too much time on Amazon, searching for things you need and a lot of things you probably don’t need. We had a little chat with the team there and they shared what the best selling Amazon beauty products were between 2013-2016, with sales of these products spiking to a whopping 380% over that time.

Surprisingly enough, only one make-up product made the list. It seems like people are more obsessed with the sun that we thought, since more than half of the items are either sun creams (have a little scroll of our best sun cream round-up to see which of them made the cut) or fake tans. Oh, and an unexpected insect repellant working its way up the charts. The most popular women's electric shaver also made an appearance, clocking in with a hefty 423 customer reviews.

Check out the full list of products below - we know we're adding a couple to our wish list. Also keep an eye on their #nowitssummer campaign for more awesome deals for the holiday season...

St Moriz Instant Self Tanning Mousse, £4

Fake it till you make it with St Moriz's instant fake tan, which will have you looking sunkissed in no time. Since it comes as a mousse, it's a little easier to apply evenly with an applicator rather than spraying and hoping for the best.
