Fake tan!

30 replies

Shortandsweet20 · 29/03/2016 22:07

I'm looking for a fake tan as I am fed up of being pale!
I've tried a few, st moriz, Lauren's way, and a loreal one. But I haven't fell in love with any yet!

I want a natural looking tan (I know it is hard to achieve with some) and something that won't resemble tiger bread after one shower!

Any recommendations would be great! Grin

Ah ok, I never know whether it is safe to use on face so it can be difficult!

I wear it on my face - I have compared the ingredients in the body tan and the one they sell specifically for the face and they are exactly the same. Buying a face only one is a rip off.

I'm a fan of Garnier Summer Body. I use the light one as I'm really pale but this gives me a lovely healthy glow that often attracts positive comments. I use 3-4 times a week instead of my usual after-shower body lotion. It goes on really easily just remember to clean the webs of your fingers after use.

It's fine to wear on face. Put a blob on the mitt and put all over, concentrate more on areas that naturally get the sun.

Then get a moisturiser and rub it on your hairline, eyebrows, and around jaw to blend. It will stop the tan sticking so much.

If you're using st tropez it's very difficult to make mistakes...

No7's fake tan range is good. I use different fake tan on my face...haven't found a better one than lancome's facial tanning gel, the one in a pump bottle (lasts for ages as hardly need to use much each time).
If you don't mind using a wash off one, if no rain forecast lol... then rimmel sun shimmer does the job but wear a mitt or it will stain palms a lot!
