With awards season well under way, it’s hard not to notice the gorgeous sun-kissed skin that every actress is sporting; it’s the ultimate accessory year after year! So this got us thinking – if we had an awards ceremony for our favorite self tanners, who would be the big winners?
Lotion
The tanning lotion of the moment is Sevin Nyne’s Self Tanning Lotion
– this lotion nourishes the skin with a blend of essential oils and botanicals such as honey, cucumber and chamomile, while imparting a flawless and effortless glow. Looking to making a bigger, bronzer statement? Just layer it for a more intense bronze! Be sure to follow the golden rules – exfoliate, exfoliate and exfoliate prior to any tanning treatments. Also, apply a minimal amount of lotion around elbows and knees for an undetectable bronze. Another reason to feel good about your tan – a portion of Sevin Nyne’s proceeds goes to support skin cancer awareness charities!
Mousse
St. Tropez Bronzing Mousse,
a personal and celebrity favorite! This mousse offers an instant bronze that acts as a guide for even and accurate application, a helpful solution to those who are prone to missing spots and those tell-tale streaks. This fast drying mousse then develops over a couple of hours to a deeper tan leaving nothing but a light, refreshing scent and even, radiant tan. This aloe based mousse is ideal for those dryer skin types and its blue base offers a true bronze rather than the orange that every self tanner dreads. And don’t be alarmed if you see it wash off in the shower! Its just the bronzer, not the self-tanner itself.
Spray
Mystic Tan – the ones who started a tanning revolution! It is no longer necessary to strip down in your local tanning salon to achieve
Mystic Tan’s deep, natural looking tan – you can now achieve it in the comfort of your own home. Mystic Tan’s Sunless Self Tanning Spray has a micro-mist that offers a perfectly even coverage without drying the skin since the formula is alcohol free. The spray can is ideal for those hard to reach areas like the back and the tops of the hands.
Towelette
Any jet-setting self tanner needs these in their overnight bag! TanTowel
has all bases covered. These individually packed towelettes (they resemble baby wipes) contain a concentrated amount of tanning solution and they come in 2 convenient sizes – half size for half the body and full size for a full body application. They also come in 2 colors – the “classic” formula is suitable for fair to medium skin tones. Whilst the “plus” is more practical for medium to darker skin tones. They can be used for the face and body and develop within 2 to 4 hours. Layer just like any tanning product for a deeper finish!
Instant Bronze
Too Faced Tanning Bed in a Tube – Good enough to eat!
This instant bronzer takes you back to your favorite vacation with its yummy pina-colada scent and gold shimmer, your very own summer romance. This lotion is the perfect compliment to a little black dress for a glowing décolleté, arms and legs. The best part? It doesn’t rub off!
Congratulations to all of our winners! And we thank you for keeping us bronzed goddesses all year long!
