St.Tropez Self Tan Express Mousse, Fast Acting Fake Tan, Develops in 1-3 Hours, Streak-Free Finish, Vegan, Natural & Cruelty Free, 100 ml

Product Information

Another thing we love about this tan is its smell. There is absolutely zero hint of a biscuity or vinegary smell, this tan has a tropical scent that lingers on the skin.

While fake tanning is better for you than lying in the sun, or a tanning booth, if you have sensitive skin you may wish to use DHA-free products. Size: 200ml, Vegan: Yes, Development time: One to eight hours, Formula: Mousse; Star Ingredients: Vitamin E Anything with Bali in the name has got us hooked this summer as we’ll be fake tanning direct from our staycation. We've been using this tan every other day for a week, and have seen incredible results. First and foremost, the tan has built up from a subtle bit of colour to a deep holiday tan that still looks natural. And, our skin is softer than ever due to the added moisturising ingredients (aloe vera, witch hazel and hyaluronic acid).The drops have raspberry seed oil, vitamin E, aloe vera and caffeine to tone the skin. It takes about four-six hours for a tan to develop and you can customise your tan depending on the amount you use; two drops create a very subtle glow, while 12 drops leave you deeply bronzed. We all know and love Mille Court from season seven of Love Island, and we love her even more for this fake tan collaboration with Revolution Beauty. This is the only fake tan we’ve tried that really allows you to control your shade, and we really rated it. It’s worth noting too that the PURE range is ethically sourced from recyclable materials, and can continue to be recycled - doing good for the planet, while we’re feeling good about the end results. Immediately upon squirting it out, you'll already be able to tell that this tan gives you a super deep tan. The guide colour is darker than most tans we've come across and it's definitely more brown than beige or orange. And this shows up on the skin within an hour (but we left ours on for eight hours for maximum impact)

Fake tan can stain sheets if not left to dry - as soon as you see a fake tan mark, apply cold water to the stain to separate the tanner from the fabric. Fake tan gives you a healthy-looking glow from ingredients such as non-toxic chemicals like DHA (Dihydroxyacetone). At first, we immediately liked the fresh, aloe vera fragrance - it was super easy to apply with a mitt, and we didn’t need more than a couple of medium-sized pumps per leg. While each product will come with its own set of application instructions, there are a few steps that, according to Jules, can help prep the skin for a streak-free finish: Disappointingly, after washing it off, there was little change in our skin colour, but the following day there was a noticeable shade change. We were left with a healthy, realistic tan and soft skin which has been fading evenly.

St Moriz Face & Body Bronzing Mist

Although you can use this on your entire body, you'll probably get the best results using it on your face and décolletage. The mist itself is really fine, so it's perfect for smaller surface areas but you may struggle to get even coverage all over your legs and arms. We prefer to use it to top up our regular tan (which we've already achieved with a mousse or cream) on our arms, legs and elsewhere in between tanning days. Since we’re unlikely to be going Down Under any time soon, Bondi Sands has brought a new, innovative product to us in the form of their PURE tanning range. If you’re fair-skinned, you only need to apply this twice a week for a glow and if you want a deeper colour, apply it for a couple of consecutive days. It has a very mild fake tan smell with ‘Odourlite Fragrance Technology’, and we didn’t notice any strong fake tan smells from the product.
