Easy but decent fake tan

13 replies

I’ve had a spray tan recently and have loved not being transparently white.

Can anyone recommend a decent fake tan so I can replicate this at home?

Would rather not use a gradual tan moisturiser as I’m not consistent enough for it.


Thanks.

Bondi sands. Very natural and goes in lovely. Also much better scent than most.

Skinny Tan Coconut Water Tanning Mist. Works well and smells good.

Bondi sands. I'm as pale as they come and use the dark one, it goes a lovely golden colour and fades evenly.

Invest in a good mitt as well

I have recently discovered Clarins tanning drops which you mix with your usual moisturiser. A game changer for me as I’m allergic to so many ingredients used in other moisturisers!

For me it's St Moritz , tanning mousse , inexpensive and works a treat!

Molly mae filter spritz me. Best tan I've ever used

Bondi Sands in the blue bottle with the pump top is the one that always gets recommended on here and on TikTok

Another vote for Bondi Sands, I'm a complete amateur and was amazed.

You need a mit!!

Thanks so much for the recommendations.

I’ve ordered the St Moriz, but it’s not coming until Monday so will try and pick up the Bondi Sands over the weekend (I’m assuming it’s the black and blue mousse that you’re all recommending?)

Feeling positive for a nice sun kissed glow by Monday. I’ll report back if I look like I’ve had a run in with Ronseal.

Bondi sands gradual tanner - I know you said you’re not consistent enough for it but I use it every other day and it looks so natural, I’ve had so many comments on how my tan is so lovely this year 😂

Yes it's the mousse I use (leave on for about 50 minutes for a bronzed tan and I am pretty fair)
