Hey guys,
So as its supposed to be summer here in very rainy cold England i like to look like i have a nice summer healthy glow which comes in the form of fake tan, and as i am about as pale as someone from the north pole (but actually someone from the north pole will be pretty tanned because the sun will reflect off the snow and be a lot brighter) but anyway i am just very pale so i wanted to do an at home guide to self tanners:
SPRAY: ok, so if you have ever had a tan at a salon this is a bit like what they use but just in a can so you can use it at home. It is just an aerosol can with tanning liquid inside. Now there are two types of spray tan, one that develops over 2-6 hours and an instant one.
First for the developing one, these are just a liquid in a bottle that is just like water but it develops over time on the skin into a glowing tan. But as you can’t see where you are putting the tan when you are applying t it does tend to streak sometimes.
Instant tan, it is the same concept just instant and a little more messy! You just spray it on and you will be able to see it immediately so it is a little easier to see where you have and haven’t put it. Just be careful because it does tend to get everywhere!
GEL: Ok so have you ever had that get tooth paste that is like a gel and it’s really minty, well it’s just like that but it just looks like marmite and you apply it using a mitt otherwise you will have orange hands the next day (not a very attractive look!) then also people will know that its fake and you haven’t just been laying out in the sun in Barbados for a week. Gel is instant an all you really have to do is just rub it in like a body lotion, it’s that simple!
GRADUAL: gradual tan, as the name suggests it is a gradual tan that you maybe apply once a day or every other day, you build it up so the tan gets darker and darker so it’s not as noticeable I guess. But if you don’t keep re-applying it it will fade just like any other tan. Another benefit of this is that it is very easy to apply and if you miss a spot it really doesn’t matter because you will just go over it the next time you apply it. It also hydrates your body rather that drawing the moisture out it puts it in which is also good.
MOUSE: It’s just like hair mouse but a brown colour and you just use a mitt and apply it all over your body and gives a quite light even tan. There’s not much else to say other than it’s an easy one for beginners.
LOTION: Lotion is pretty much like the gel one but in the form of a lotion a brown colour lotion that you rub on your body with a mitt, it won’t stain your hands as bad as the gel will but still be careful and just use a mitt.
Ok so that’s it if you have any questions leave them in the comments section and I will try to answer them!
