Get the Summer Glow

                                 


For years, I could never see why my friends bothered self-tanning for occasions or even every week. I have avoided the trend for quite some time.... until three weeks ago. Never have I had to consider applying tan as I'm very sallow anyways.




Instead I didn't want to attempt the mouse as I was fearful that it would be a streaky mess! If you're like me just buy a lotion version. You're less likely to be streaky and it's easier to look more natural when applied with a mit.I invested in the Garnier Summer Body and trust me I was not disappointed. 

Firstly, it smells like apricot  and not that biscuity scent that most people loathe. I for one don't mind the scent as it doesn't bother me but I don't necessarily want to be smelling like a burnt biscuit either. The apricot scent masks the dreaded smell as if it isn't there. 

It is better to apply it with a mit because the tan doesn't develop for a few hours and you're more likely to get a better coverage . Also because it's a lotion, it moisturize your body so you don't look patchy with dry skin. I like to stand and let the lotion dry for atleast fifteen minutes because it will stain your clothes. I've learnt from my mistakes and I want you to avoid them haha.
