It's that time of the year where we trade our sweaters for swimsuits. I have always been ghostly pale. I never develop a tan, always a sunburn instead. But, I have also always been very cautious about the dangers of the sun and tanning beds. When I was younger my mother had skin cancer removed and it taught us all how careful we need to be when it comes to the health of our skin. Thankfully, in todays world, we know about how life saving a bit of sunscreen and a hat can be in the summer time. We are also lucky enough that we don't have to lay in the sun for hours on end to get a good glow. St. Tropez has been one of the best selling self tanners on the market of years now. With its simple to use mousse texture, you can be several shades darker in a matter of minutes! When you using this product you will need to buy a tanning mitt (not included) which runs about $5-7. If you are fair-medium skin tone I suggest starting with just the classic bottle so you look even and natural. I would stay away from the black bottle which is extra dark unless you already have a darker complexion. They suggest to exfoliate 24 hours prior to use to remove any dead skin and moisturize dry areas such as elbows, knees, and feet so the tan isn't streaky. Wait 8-10 hours after application before showering or getting wet just to be sure the mousse has melted into your skin. A full body tan using this product lasts up to 10 days. St. Tropez has even come up with a secret formula to using the right amount every time : 2 pumps per arm, 5 pumps per body, and 4 pumps per leg. This product is also vegan and 100% cruelty free. After using this tanner I noticed ZERO spots or light patches on my skin. The tan was applied evenly and looked very natural considering how pale I really am. This mousse is easy to use, takes under 10 minutes for application, and lasts over a week! If this pale girl can look naturally bronzed with this product, you can too.
