Hi guys!
You asked me what is my secret when self tanning, which products do I use and what are my favourites, so today I'm going to do a review about my favourite self tanning product!
As you guys know, I'm extremely pale skin, and as much as I try to embrace my natural skin colour, occasionally I like to have a nice tan!
I have to be careful when sunbathing (read: I don't), and I avoid tanning beds (they cause skin's premature ageing! I prefer to look pale, rather than old!), so self tanning products are the right choice for me!
I usually self tan in spring & summer (when we wear more revealing clothes), and then give my skin a break in autumn and winter time...
Over the years, I've tried a lot of different self tanning products, but one stood out to me the most!
It's the Tanceuticals CC (color + correct) self tanning body lotion (I have it in dark and it works just great!), made in the USA.
This luxurious CC self tanning lotion will give you a beautiful, natural and long lasting tan (without the sun exposure, or tanning beds!).
It won't streak, or leave you with a weird, orange colour.
It's infused with good ingredients such as Acai Berry, Mango butter and Vitamin E, so it'll moisturize, repair and firm your skin.
The best part is the scent!
It has got a fresh, coconut scent that completely eliminates that funky self tanner smell everyone dislikes! I never before came accross a self tanner that doesn't smell like a self tanner!
Another great thing is that the colour developes in a matter of minutes, you don't have to wait hours to see the results!
With the product, you'll get a tanning mit to help with application.
4.2 fl.oz / 125 ml bottle + tanning mit for easier application |
This self tanning lotion is really easy to apply- blends easily and dries quickly (non-sticky).
For best results, be sure to exfoliate your skin in the shower before use!
Once completely dry, lightly apply product to skin using a circular motion to the areas you want to tan, starting with your feet and working your way up.
For drier areas like your elbows, knees, hands and feet, use very sparingly, and you can add your regular body lotion afterwards to keep those areas moisturized and to prevent colour build up!
If you don't use a mitt when applying this product, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after each use.
Once done, let dry a few minutes before putting on clothes or getting into bed.
Ideally, you should wait at least 7-8 hours before sweating or showering (overnight is best).
To maintain your gorgeous tan, use once or twice a week, and make sure to moisturize every day to extend it.
And now, what a lot of you have asked me was to show you the actual results...how it works on my skin...so here it is! Are you ready...??
I love this self tanner also because it's packed full with good ingredients, such as :
acacia decurrens/jojoba/sunflower seed wax/aloe vera leaf juice/vitamin E/rose hip seed extract/pomegranate extract/acai berry fruit extract/grape seed oil/sweet almond oil/macadamia seed oil/shea butter/cocoa seed butter/mango seed butter...
plus, when you take into consideration this aaaamazing coconut scent, who could resist to a product like that?? :)

Lijep pozdrav!
Danas vam predstavljam jedan od svojih omiljenih, ako ne i najomiljeniji proizvod za samotamnjenje, a radi se o Tanceuticals CC losionu, koji je proizveden u SAD-u.
Ja sam jako blijede puti, to vec znate...iako se vecinu vremena osijecam dobro u vlastitoj kozi, ponekad se volim vidjeti sa lijepim "preplanulim" tenom.
Pogotovo kada se radi o nekim posebnim prilikama, ili proljetno-ljetnim mjesecima, kada nosimo odjecu koja vise otkriva :)
Buduci da mi suncanje slabo ide od ruke, a solarije izbjegavam od 26 godine (draze mi je da mi koza izgleda bijela kao jogurt, nego stara, hmmm), losioni za samotamnjenje moji su prijatelji!
Tijekom godina, dosta sam ih vec isprobala, od high-end, skupljih, do jeftinijih koji se mogu pronaci u svakoj drogeriji pa i u supermarketu.
Jedini koji me zaista odusevio jest Tanceuticals!
Evo, u par tocki i zbog cega:
- Daje vam instantnu prekrasnu boju, koja djeluje vrlo prirodno (ne ostavlja cudne tragove na kozi, niti cete izgledati narancasto!)
- Vrlo je jednostavan za nanosenje (lijepo se upija u kozu, brzo se susi, nije ljepljiv, niti mastan!)
- Odlicno mirisi- na kokos! To je jedna kvaliteta koju jos nisam srela kod niti jednog proizvoda za samotamnjenje...svi oni, vise manje, ostavljaju na kozi neki cudan miris karakteristican proizvodima za samotamnjenje...ali ne i Tanceuticals! Mogla bih ga pojesti koliko dobro mirisi, hihi!
- Dugotrajna boja (trajati ce vam 5 do 7 dana, a dovoljno je jedanput-dvaput tjedno nanijeti ga i izmedju aplikacija normalno hranite kozu vasim omiljenim losionom za tijelo.)
- Prepun je prirodnih sastojaka koji se brinu o vasoj kozi (u engleskom tekstu gore sam ispisala vecinu sastojaka, ali neki od njih koje bih rado izdvojila su vitamin E, maslac manga, ekstrakt voca Acai Berry itd.)
Iz slicica koje sam vam prilozila mozete i sami zakljuciti da je rezultat odlican (ja ga imam u nijansi "dark" ).

Do iduceg posta, saljem vam pusu iz Italije,
ja se zbog zdravstvenih problema ne smijem više izlagati suncu, ali čini se da sam skupila dovoljno sunčanih zraka, a i koža mi je prirodno tamnija, pa još nisam imala potrebe isprobavati ove losione.
ReplyDeleteNo, moram naglasiti da se slažem sa tobom i uvjerena sam da su losioni za samotamljenje znatno zdraviji od solarija, koji uza sve zdravstvene rizika često rezultira ružnom narančastom kožom.
Ti si na slici baš lijepo blago preplanula- idealno!

Da, vidjela sam jako ruzne rezultate solarija, bas onako ruzna, osusena prepecena koza neke cudne narancasto-smedje boje, dobro si rekla! I sto je najbolje, ti ljudi su postali ovisni o solariju i ne vide da su pretjerali...Ja sam gotovo sve svoje kolegice s posla uspijela odviknuti od solarija pricama o preranom starenju koze i drugim rizicima (ukoliko se lampe redovito ne mijenjaju i servisiraju!)...
Deletelove it!

What product did you have in mind to use? We're heading into the winter now, so I guess I'm going to take a little break from self tanning until the next spring, or at least until the next special occasion ;) x

It can be to have more tanning devices so more individuals can access it at one time. Whatever angles you take you have to promote them to the general public also. bronzing boutique
ReplyDeleteFor instance, you will find that the tanning gear for a sun tan that is procured at the shoreline will comprise of a reasonable tanning moisturizer, a great sun obstruct, a clock to monitor the time spent sun tanning and a couple of defensive things. tanningway
