St Tropez Spray Tan the dark one!!!
Saturday, 18 February 2012
laurens way spray tan 8% dha love
Rant over lol let's get back to what this post is really about. I'd put this up with a St Tropez spray tan and that's saying something St Tropez is very well known as I'm sure you all know. If your a fan of Laurens Way self tanner products I promiss your'll love this.
Going back to Laurens Way self tans i do have the lotion, im not sure if this is ment to be an instant tan wear when you shower it comes of or one that last?!? i found soon as i had showerd colour just came off witch i dont mind at all if im just wanting a quick tan, but yea im not sure wether its an instand or what, the colour is gorgeous no orange in site its very golden/olive as pics will show.
Back to the spray tan as soon as it was applied the colour started to develop instantly witch i love golden goddess in minuets, i do usually leave a good 10-12 hours before showering no nasty smell i actually kinda like the smell after a spray tan i dont know but thats just me lol altho when i have used laurens way lotion their is a far more grater smell witch aint to pretty.
Anyway i was absolutly thrilled in the morning you would of thought id been away on hol, obviously the quide colour does come of in the shower but its still just as dark after youved dryed of, so no need to worry.
It did not dry my skin out at all didnt cling to my elbows kneews hands ect most tell tale signs of a false tan if you dont get it rite, this includes preping your skin before haveing a spray tan also, dont shave or wax the day of a tan dont exfoliate on the day either moisterise a good week before everyday not on the day of your tan. It lastd a good week makeing sure you take care oviously moisturise daily exfolaite once or twice lightly pat your skin after showering avoid baths you know the drill, it faded very well i wasnt left with a horrible patchy mess witch i despise!!
Enough dribble ha heres the piccies in order off.......you really cant tell a differance tho to be fair.
After ive left it on for 10-12 hours....
After showering....
Id really try this out if your a fan of spray taning it is cheaper then a St Tropez spray tan the salon i go charges 27£ for a full body the Laurens Way was 15£ for a full body with a mobile beautican but i spose you can charge whatever you please.!? for 15£ tho you cant complain i will defo be haveing another for that specail nite out :D this is a fab tan!! I did recently ask on the Laurens Way page on facebook do they do a darker tan and they do!! So I'm really hopeing to try that out soon as I can.

St Tropez Spray Tan Before & After
Lately I've had an obsession with St Tropez spray tans quite an expensive obsession lol, but well worth it :D I'm sure you all know I'm a huge tan fanatic I cant live without the stuff Xen Tan being a fav of mine, I'l be honest I think I'm falling outer love with sadly I never thought id say it. I find with the St Tropez Spray Tan the results are so much better I don't know if its due to it being a professional spray tan but I'm absolutely in love!. From start to finish it takes around 20 mins I always say the darker the better lol but its up to you if you wont just a slight tan or a deeper tan, I have two coats I find ones not dark enough for me, once applied within id say five mins you can see it developing getting darker and darker as the hours past, from head to toe your left with a perfect even golden olive colour that last up to a week if you look after your tan!!, in no way is it orange pics will show all any way.
Here's a few tips from the professionals themselves about having a
spray tan treatment taken from http://www.st-tropez.com
The St. Tropez Spray Tan Treatment is the quickest way to get a professional finish. Delivered in around 15 minutes, the spray is quick drying and now features Aromaguard™ fragrance technology which eliminates the tell-tale self tan aroma by a minimum of 70%.
Before treatment advice:
•Skin should be free from self tan, perfume, deodorant and aromatherapy oils
•Waxing or shaving should be completed at least 24 hours prior to the treatment
•The evening or morning before your treatment, exfoliate your entire body with St. Tropez Body Polish. Pay special attention to dry areas of your body such as hands, elbows, knees and feet
•Wear dark, loose fitting clothing with dark coloured underwear. The guide colour may stain light hair, man-made fibres and wool
•We recommend you have a patch test prior to every treatment
After treatment advice:
•Do not shower or bathe for a minimum of 4 hours after your treatment
•Do not participate in any activity which may cause perspiration for at least 12 hours after the treatment
•The guide colour can be left on overnight although it may transfer onto bed linen. It will wash out of cotton, but not so easily from man-made fibres or wool
Keep your tan looking gorgeous for longer:
•Apply St. Tropez Body Moisturiser or St. Tropez Body Butter daily
•Exfoliate your skin with St. Tropez Body Polish every 2-3 days to ensure even fading
•After showering pat the skin dry rather than rubbing
•Avoid swimming pools as chlorine can bleach the tan
All I would say is if you wont your tan to go even darker leave it on for as long as poss say I usually have one done on a Friday at one clock I don't have a shower until least the afternoon Saturday sometimes later depending on what I'm doing. Don't be scared of the guide colour coming of in the shower your'll still be left with a gorgeous golden tan, you may think its all guna come off it really doesn't your'll be surprised, I know this happens alot with other fake tans you think what's the point it all comes off lol but this doesn't do that. I cant add much else I think their a must for a special occasion or even just to treat your self I feel so much better when ive had mine like a different person in a far better mood to its weird what it does ha.

Go a shade darker!! [Xen Tan Dark lotion Absolute Luxe]
I finally got to order this a few backs but with me just coming back from hols their has been no need for self tanning but the time has come my actual tan is fadeing rapid wont and can not be seen without the tan on well if i can help it :D.
What Xen Tan say about their product
New to the range, Dark Lotion Absolute Luxe has been four years in the making. During that time we've perfected our darkest, richest and most luxurious tan to date; one that offers a tan that will last longer than any other fake-tan product.
To create this ultimate dark, long-lasting tan, we've included more DHA active tanning agent than ever before. Because DHA is what causes the traditional 'fake tan smell', we've also included Scent Secure - a revolutionary new ingredient that locks out any chemical odours. So you can enjoy incredible natural-looking results for up to 10 days that leave you feeling fabulous.
Enriched with Ginko Biloba, Green Tea extract, aloe and Shea butter, Dark Lotion Absolute Luxe is a real treat for skin, leaving it feeling wonderfully nourished and smooth.
Easy to apply, it smoothes on evenly and fades evenly too, for beautifully even, olive-toned results every time.
Is It the best fake tan i have ever used YES, the best colour YES, the darkest of all the Xen Tan products the darker the beter i say :P even fair skined can use this it wil adjust to you, the best smell YES it ticks all the boxes.
Im a fake tan addictd and this is a winner, everything i want in a tube natural olive undertone no orange here!!, very good for the skin no dryness, a gorgeous vanilla sent no horrible tan smell, can be used for the face aswell as the body, easy to use, a guide colour so you know where youve applied no need to be scared at all. I know meny people get put of by fake tan i can see why seeing women and men looking like umpa lumpas, being all patchy and streaky, if you have the right fake tan and you prep your skin you cant go wrong not with Xen Tan they have really made it easy for you.
I would adivce on geting the Xen Tan mitt for applying its not like these cheap foam mitts that soak up all the product with this mitt the fake tan glides far beter over the skin you dont waste product and at 34.99£ a tube i wouldnt want to waste either.
When applying makeing sure youve exfoliated first alot of people miss this step and then they wonder why they have a patchy uneven tan, this is why if you dont prep your skin, move quik as poss makeing sure you blend as you go, the texture is pretty thick so you need to move pretty fast if you keep rubbing over the same area you will start to get darker patches if this happens i use my st tropez buffing mitt to go over the areas i think ive applyd to much the product has to be wet tho when doing this if not your'll just buff the product off and we dont want that do we now lol,Doing your back is very hard by your self its best to get some one to help you, and when doing your hands i use abit of moisturiser before putting the tan on you dont have to but i prefer to do this, i dont put any more product on the mitt i just use whats left from doing my body and face i always do my hands last. I apply my tan just before going to bed so it has time to develop dont be going out for a jog the gym whatever try not to sweat stay away from water, it needs time to develop avoid light colourd clothing until youve washed the colour off like i said i tend to apply before going to bed so it has least twelve hrs to come out then in the morning its safe to shower you can see the colour comeing of but your still left with a gorgeous olive tan.
After a week or so your tan should fade evenly i exfoliate any way least twice a week to make sure im not scrubbing away with one of those seriously hard pad things i dont no what their called but it hurts like hell ha then you should be ready for our next appliaction it gets it to like a routine once you start you cant stop!!
Does this fake tan compare to any other fake tanning product i have used before NO but their still are some very good fake tans out their just not as good as this one :PPPPPP
I have posted about Xen Tan's Absolute Deep Bronze Luxe this stil is a very good tan and far beter then alot on the market its just about finding the rite fake tan that works
best for you!.
It all about XEN TAN the name to trust when it comes to self tanning

Loreal Paris Sublime Bronze Express Pro

Sure you all know by now that i cant not live without my fake tan!!! maybe the colour of me gives it away ha anyway this weekend i was out and only had a small amount of my usual Xen Tan Luxe so with no time to order any or nip to Manchester to get some i got a hold off this Sublime Bronze Express Pro in Medium Skin witch ive used before but old one only dif i think is the nozzle..?? not sure but i cant remember the results of using the regular Sublime Bronze but im not a fan of sprays any way but the natural colour this gives you is gorgeous no streaks no mess no smell even i did put two layers on tho one is not dark enough for me but their is to shades a light skin and a medium skin. I cant fault this i thought id hate it to be honest but i love it don't think i'll be getting rid of my beloved Xen Tan but this is a great alternative in my eyes, very easy to use for you first time fake tanners but some may be put of because theirs no guide colour but once you get the hang you wont go wrong, bit pricey at £13.99 but ive found it cheaper on the net feelunique are selling them for ££11.99 two quid less better then nouthing i guess lol. I will post pics when im feeling up to it coming down with a bug i think so soon as i cant b assed :p..o yea whos heard about Xen Tan bringing out an even darker fake tan Xen Tan Deep Luxe i think its calld i cant no actuly wait!!!
