Best Self-Tanners

[ShuggaStiletto]

^ sephora.com If you want a whole set including the exfoliator/moisturizer/tanning product its $50 ...but if you want just the tanning product it's around $30. I have fair skin and I'm not sure if it would be worth it to get St. Tropez--if you get it please, pleassee! tell me how it works out!!!!

I apply it on my face its the flash broncer by lancome and must say i it.

okay i tried reapplying without exfoliating and it worked fine except for a tinny color difference in my neck but i am sure that tha was me not doing something right . I am redoing today because i love how i look tan (as if its natural).

Now i wonder why i hvaen't tried fake tans before???

 

[Joanna678]

I use l'oreal sublime bronze and i find it works the best for me...

I tried the Jergen's natural glow for acouple of days and noticed a little difference but I stopped using it. I'm going to try it again. This time I need to make sure I THOROUGHLY apply it evenly...my first time, I went to work the next morning (with flip-flops) and saw the streaks... omg, irritated me the entire day

I got a spray tan the other day and they used St Tropez, and I love it. It looks great. So much easier than applying it myself!

and PinkLipgloss- does cookies and cream come off w/ just water or do you need to scrub w/ soap? Like if water splashed on it, would it drip off?

hi, sorry haven't replied earlier.

no, you have to scrub it with soap. I actually tested that, in case i went out in rain or something, so i splashed water on my legs and it didn't come off at all!

The Body Shop - S.O.S. Fake it!

^^the best self tanner i´ve ever seen and used=)

 

[jennyd80]

I am very pale and neutrogena build a tan works best for me. It takes a couple of days to get really deep but it looks really good and people always think it is natural, they don't believe me when i say that i use self tanner.

i use lacome flash bronzer really good, or a cheaper alternative is almay's one works just aswell

Almay has something? It's crazy how so many of these cosmetics companies have gotten in on the faux tan craze. It has a big market, though, so I suppose it only makes sense.

yeah true. But i think its good, it sort of encourages a few to fake it instead of risking skin cancer by sitting in the sun - especially paler people.

^ Oh, I couldn't agree more. But quite honestly, I think this whole tan thing is starting to die down... I know I'm not as crazy about it as I was a couple of years ago... but maybe it's just me?

I'm using Kanebo - Honey Glow self-tanning gel. It gives you very natural tanned look to your skin, it's not too cloying & strong scented when applying it. And the tan lasts 2-3 days.

 

[ShuggaStiletto]

I'm thinking about Mystic Tanning, but I'm just too scared I'll look orange, cause I'm really pale/pasty! Maybe I should go with St. Tropez..? ehhh idk

 

[haute femme]

^If you do a Mystic level one, it shouldn't turn out too orangy--just a nice light golden. I know a few porcelain-skinned people who have done it

Self-tanner

What is the best self-tanner? I am extremely (not overexaggerated) pale and i never tan in the sun (i burn, peel and go back to pastey white ). I have tried various self tanners, they either leave me streaky, extremely dark, or both. What self tanner would you reccommend?

 

[Trista]

I know it's not a self-tanner but have you tried Mystic Tan? It's fake but it's sunless and it's applied using an airbrush.

 

[fashionistangeL]

where do you get the mystic tanner?

 

[Jane Loves Marc]

My mom does Mystic Tan and it looks great!
I'm very very pale and I would never think of tanning, I like my pale skin! A tan is very flattering on most people though...not on me!

 

[haute femme]

Well you can go to a Mystic spray-tanning booth at a salon that has it.. but they also have the actual spray in a bottle.
