beauty bollocks!

How does everyone feel about the fact a senior person at Estee Lauder sold tens of thousands of their shares just before the Dispatches program started tonight?! says a lot I think because they are taking the mick out of people and should give the money they stole through false advertising to Burma!!!!

a very very VERY cross Hawky (I can’t believe its legal really??)

Best fake tans I have used

Hi there,

I’m sorry its taken me so long to get around to writing my list of recommendations but here it is:

Shiseido Brilliant Bronze Quick Self Tanning Gel- I loved this, if you want a tan that is minimum effort, natural looking and doesn’t go blotchy or orange anywhere this is the one. The Gel is so easy to rub in and doesn’t feel sticky or slimy, the gel absorbs instantly with a cool sensation and gives a deep, even glowing bronze colour. I found this tan works perfectly on its own and wears off evenly without going patchy. it looks fantastic with one layer for a very natural glow and also works well when you build up a deeper colour with more layers. gold star for Shiseido because its so easy to just throw on quickly and not have to worry about horrible mistakes the next morning.

Loreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Fresh Feel Gel- this is almost as good as the Shiseido gel (for £8 you really cant complain because that makes it perfect), its a little more greasy but certainly not in a bad way because the next day after washing your skin feels very soft. It apparently has a smoothing effect for an even and natural looking tan. I found this tan works great on its own or mixes with a daily tanning moisturiser for more regular use. big thumbs up from me. (however I feel very strongly about Loreal’s false advertising and would only recomend it for the colour it gives I don’t believe a word of the smoothing effect rubbish a good tan comes from good application)

Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Bronzer Self-Tanning Spray

this tan dries very quickly and can be a little too dry. I found again mixing this with a Garnier daily tan it became the perfect colour and wasn’t too greasy. This tan gives a beautiful colour in one application and wears off relatively even, with a little exfoliation where needed.

Fake Bake Self Tanning Lotion – this is the super most bestest fake tan in the world!! this cream product comes out blacky brown initially so can look a little scary at first, again I sometimes mix this with a daily taning moisturiser so that it is easier to apply. The colour comes out olive as opposed to orange the next day and is perfectly even. The tan has a lovely Aloe Vera smell and the next day washes off to leave you looking glowing and naturally gorgeous!! I love it I couldn’t fault it any way. This tan even works to give you a little colour during the day if you needed to top up your tan for a special event, you can apply and go!

Ten gold stars and two thumbs up from me especially because you can buy three bottles for £40 at www.hometanning.co.uk Brilliant!

On final tip, if you make any mistakes while tanning Veet hair removal cream is a godsend, it takes fake tan clean off a day or two after application and hides mistakes the very next day if needs be! I discovered this vital piece of information after spending hours fake tanning for a super important date with my lovely boyfirend and then used hair removal cream on my legs the next day hoping to achieve silky smooth pins with a golden glow…. no such luck! my beautiful tan wiped away along with the cream!
