Good for a natural look 

I like this cc cream best when I only use a small amount of product to conceal and smooth lightly. The colour range and matching is not great and it can look a bit cakey/orange if you put too much on.  Overall, for me it’s a wearable every day product for minimal makeup looks. 

Best matte sunscreen

This is the best matte sunscreen I've ever tried. In fact, it is so matte for my combo skin that it tends to dehydrate it... I fix this by using a heave moisturizer before. It has quite strong floral perfume which I don't mind. I see no whitecast on me but I think darker skin tones could experience it. It spreads incredibly easily.

Vichy capital soliel it’s a water fluid & sinks right into the skin. No residue or grease what so ever and good priced.

Nice sunscreen for around eyes

I use this sunscreen around my eyes as it doesn't sting and is moisturizing. It spreads nicely. I wouldn't use it for the rest of my face as I have combo skin and it could look quite oily.

Nice product and lasts a long time

These tan drops provide a very natural tan. I usually mix 3-5 drops with day cream for an even result. You can also apply drops separately, but then it can be a little more difficult to get an even complexion. I think the effect will last for a few days, which is why I don't use them every day and the bottle lasts a super long time. In addition to the fact that the tan is beautiful, I also like how it feels on my skin. However, you have to wash your hands very carefully afterwards, otherwise they will be completely orange!

Nourishing and soothing

Earlier this week, I was wandering around between beauty products and was again attracted to the advertising about the use of bee/honey products. Couldn't resist any longer and purchased this item 😍 This hydrating emulsion provides a moisturizing boost to the skin that is exposed to high, summer temperatures. Yes, an SPF of 30 is present 🤗. And of course, the lovely scent of honey (not annoying). I've been using the product for several days now and I'm very satisfied with it. I would like to recommend it because it is a very good care product with multiple values such as those recommended for anti-wrinkle, collagen (hibiscus extract promotes production). Not cheap, but worth investing. #Botaniqluxebox

Heaven on Earth

What a (h) honest product! I purchased it a while ago as a promo and just recently started using it. My pale, sometimes too sick complexion on my face deserves a tan. Of course, I use the most well-known remedies such as fond de teint, but... I find these drops very quick and easy to use. I also mix them with a moisturizer to prevent streaks. The result looks very natural and it looks like I've been away for a while. Ben sold. Will have a fixed spot among my items. How are the other Colistar products? Does anyone have experience with it?

More drops give a deeper tan. Personally, I find 3 drops mixed with day cream every 2 days sufficient. I apply it all over my face including neck.

Deep Tanning Oil by Garnier Ambre Solaire

Garnier Ambre Solaire guarantees the fight against cancer. This oil is nice to use and smells like coconut. It makes the skin shine and gives a nice softness. Use: apply an extra protection factor before sunbathing, apply a layer of this product on top after sunbathing (repeat these steps regularly). For those who easily get a tan (hubby only needs to walk in the sun for a few minutes and already looks like he has been in the tropics for several weeks). Gets a big 4/5 for the fine composition, price/quality and user-friendliness. #sunprotection2022

OK... that's just it

What is being written about it? Ambre Solaire UV Water transparent sun spray SPF 50 • Transparent, aqueous structure • Very high protection with SPF 50, UVB and UVA protection • Enriched with Aloe Vera • Does not stick • Water resistant • Light, refreshing and invisible like water What is my finding? Light structure that is absorbed very quickly into the skin. Love working with Aloe Vera, which protects me in a healthy way. Shake well before use, easy to apply thanks to the spray. I use it in conjunction with other products, which means that the use of this product does not reflect a specific function/characteristic. So I am not able to recommend this extra; rather I am like 'it will contribute to... ', which is not the reason for me to purchase or recommend again. #Garnier

Amazing natural tan

Let's talk about this self tan mist by @garnier. 😍 I first bought this when it was on offer on #amazon last year and thought why not give it a go. Well...... Oh my days, it is AMAZING. It dries quickly, results are fast and it lasts ages. Oh and it also smells gorgeous. With normal fake tan I end up smelling like beef and onion crisps once it's dried down. This doesn't, it smells fruity. Let me tell you the amount of compliments I receive when I have this on, asking where I have been with my tan. When I tell people that I haven't been anywhere and used this. I have managed to convert loads of people into using this. I have bought this loads of times since then and will continue to do so.

Natural 

This is really natural. Easy to apply and the result is amazing. Nice and glowing, dries well and isn’t drying on the skin. This wears off nice and evenly as well. This looks nice and sunkissed. This is my fave tan and I use it all the time. 10/10 for me

Bondi sands tanning mousse

Cannot recommend this product enough! I wanted a reasonably priced fake tan that didn't smell of biscuits and with this mousse it's exactly what I got. You get so much in there as well. I don't religiously tan I tan on occasions and when I'm going out and this has easily lasted me 6 months. It does get a bit sticky when first on but it doesn't take long to dry out. Definitely will buy again.

No breakouts! 

After trying many different options over the years - I have finally found a self tan for my face that does not make me break out. I’ve read reviews saying this tan clears acne - I don’t know if I would Go as far as to say it is an anti- acne product but as it does not cause me to break out further that is good enough for me. The colour is quite light which is good for my ghostly complexion but builds up after a few days. It’s easy to apply and thankfully no self Tan biscuit smell.

The Perfect Redness Coverage ! X

Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color l Correcting Treatment. I adore this cream it's a light green colour it is a tiny bit greasy on skin but it's bearable !. Really helps my red skin flare ups with rosceg it soothes and times down the redness by mattifying it you apply until the green cream turns beige then your good to go! X

Best mitt I've used ever

I'm loving the Bondi sands Technocolor tanning mitt from Bondi sands,these have to be the best tanning mitts I have used in a long time ,I love that they are soft and blend my tan in Flawless.I love the packaging the mitt comes in I always keep it and it's great for going away overnight to pop my mitt in or even other wee niknaks .I love the colours on the mitt and how pretty it is ,I love that I can wash it and reuse it multiple times and I love that these are affordable and very worth the money .If your looking for a tanning mitt I'd recommend this one definitely from Bondi sands.

An important step!

I’m sure this product does the job of protecting the skin, however it is worth noting that it is strongly fragranced. Whilst it does smell lovely, I think it’s unnecessary in a skincare product. However, it applies very well to the face as it is a very thin fluid formula which I like!

Great product!!

The skin tint is a lovely, low coverage product, only issue I’ve found with it is when applying it with fingers or a brush it can go on extremely uneven, and look streaky, where applying with a sponge it goes on absolutely perfect, ideal to keep in a travel bag too as doubles as your sun cream, and if you’re in holiday not much more you need than a healthy glow!! I’m fairly light skinned but if you’re quite pale then this product won’t work for you as the lightest shade is quite dark.

Self tanning spray

This lovely smelling, non sticky self tanning spray is ideal to use most of the time. Easy to use. Develops a really lovely non streaky tan on your face. Doesn't have that usual biscuity smell that most other self tanning products leave. Love St Tropez tanning products

Ultra dark - not so dark? 

I’ve applied this on numerous occasions, some as one coat and some as multiple but it just doesn’t seem to be really dark? The tan luxe foam is much darker. It does sink nicely into the skin and it good on dry patches but I feel could be darker? I would recommend for more natural looking tan
