On you glow for summer
Let’s face it. There is no sign of the heatwave that the UK and Europe are experiencing heading our way at this stage.
So it’s time to get the gloves out, and tan from head to toe, to trick ourselves into feeling those sun kissed endorphins.
And the easiest way to do so? Swap out your regular moisturiser for a gradual tan alternative for an easy, buildable, everyday glow.
ldove Dermaspa Summer Revived Self Tan Mousse 150ml, available at Boots, €6.49
It feels like everyone and their mother has tried the new Dove self tan mousse this month but me. But not for much longer.
As a long time fan of the cheap and cheerful iconic gradual self-tan lotion, I’m dying to give the new lightweight mousse a try.
Promising to ‘glide onto skin without leaving any greasy residue’, here’s hoping it will maintain the holiday smell and olive glow that I love, but without the longlasting sticky feel and stained sheets.
lst Tropez Gradual Tan Watermelon Infusion 200ml, available at Mccauleys, €18.99
There’s just something about Watermelon this summer and it may or may not be because of Harry Styles’ hit tune.
Upon searching for some new gradual tanners, this one has obviously jumped right out - as it pairs my search for an everyday glow with the refreshing smell in their watermelon scented lotion.
The Everyday Body Lotion also comes with new moisturelock technology and uses beautiful ingredients to really lock in moisture on straight-outof-the-shower, towel-dried skin, whilst counteracting that ‘tan smell’.
Infused with hyaluronic acid at facial skincare levels, the Watermelon Infusion is an oil- based lotion which is ultra-lightweight and formulated with moisturising watermelon extract and coconut and brazil nut oil to give a more sensorial application.
lbellamianta Gradual Self Tanning Moisturiser 200ml, €17.99
For a guaranteed golden glow, this luxurious gradual moisturising lotion is ideal for creating a radiant, buildable colour.
And enriched with Shea Butter, it not only tans the skin, it helps to moisturise and restore the elasticity and soothes dry and irritated skin.
