Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

The Quick Way to BRONZE The title of this opinion is relevant in more than one way…let’s see how we do! We all know the dangers of sunbathing and sunbeds yet there is something that people find attractive about a tan, both in others and themselves. We have a tendency to feel more alive and bubbly when the sun is shining. As I type this opinion, the rain is falling outside my window and the summer seems a long way off. It needn’t be, with a little ...
...products was at university. I am not a vain person and, to be honest, I had never even thought of using such products. I was a member of our Latin American dance team and deep tans were de rigeur for competitions. Memories of sinks and bodies stained orange come flooding back as I recall the nasty creams that we used to use to fake a tan. They were messy, they had awful smells and worst, were very difficult to apply. I have naturally fair skin and ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

I have tried practically every self tanning product over the past 30 years. The first being Ambre Solaire Duo Tan which at the time was a pale thick cream with small amounts of a brownish cream added. The results were very good but the application quite messy. I remember leaving it on the time stated on the bottle before going to bed but the sheets were always left with the brown tell tale stains of self tanning cream. Ambre Solaire was one of the ...
...know that over the years this product has improved tremendously. A few months ago whilst grocery shopping I noticed amongst the tanning lotions etc., Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer. I knew it was a name to be trusted but I also liked the packaging. It's contents come in a plastic spray container oval shaped, quite flat and about 6" tall contents 100ml. I knew this product would easily fit into a make-up bag if I was going on holiday. So many ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

So I decided to do an op about this product as A) Bought it B) Tried it C) Had a opinion on it D) Have another product to compare it to, may do another op about the separate product Now there must be a few of you out there like me who is using the tan instead of sitting in the sun, men women we all do it (Well the ones who cant tan) THIS IS ME Im a girl who burns simple...you see that girl with the bright red face yep that's me and guess where ...
...that my face is turning into a tomato, but that's all day. BUT YOU CAN TAN Alot of people burn then it turns into tan, ok may do on my shoulders and back but pretty much that's it. I want a tan because to me you look better and getting a tan which doesn't cause any life threatening problems well im straight there. The sun beds arnt wise they are also a source of high risk and its alot of money. Could go to a salon and get it done... huh one leg ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

Ambre Solaire's Express Spray Bronzer gives a believable fake tan for those of us who really need it - those with very fair skin. I bought it on the basis of the of the shop assistant's recommendation to use sprays rather than creams to prevent streaking. Ambre Solaire, at £7-8 was the cheapest option with a name I felt I could trust. The spray smells of apricot which is a pleasant change from your average chemical smell and gives a pale golden ...
...I found that the tan took much longer to develop than this but it dries quickly so doesn't stain clothes - no need to wander round naked for hours! I found that twenty minutes to half an hour was more than enough time. If you want a bit of colour for a special evening, it's probably best to apply it the night before - you'll have a tan by morning and feel brilliant all day. Its a good idea with any fake tan 'cos then if you get streaks you have a ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

This is a must for people with fair skin, I only have to look at the sun and I go red, and burn very easily, but this product takes the pain out of sunbathing. The easy spray makes it easy to apply and it is easily absorbed, I like the spray better because you dont get in such a mess as you do with lotions and creams. The tan looks very natural, some fake tans can look 'fake' but this looks natural and you end up looking naturally tanned as if you ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

Having not used self tan before I chose this product based on its advertising campaign. First I Soaked in the tub and exfoliated. Applying the oily spray was very easy and it smelt kind of peachy, making me feel very summery. I found it difficult to know whether I had applied the product evenly. The product dried quickly and the colour started to show within a few hours. I had quite orange feet for the first few days and a few light patches where ...
...a first timer. I had some orange stains in places but after a day or two these had faded away. I will use the product again but this time apply some moisturiser to my feet, knees and elbows before I apply it. Overall I am happy with this product and would recomend it to my friends. ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

I've tried a couple of different fake tans and this one is my favourite at the moment. I only use it on my face but after reading some other similar reviews I might venture further south! With this one, if you forget to moisturise (which I've done) it doesn't affect the outcome but your face feels like it's aged 10 years the next morning. It feels all tight and dry. The main things I like about this one are: a) it doesn't streak at all b) even ...

Review of Garnier Ambre Solaire Express Spray Bronzer

This product does do what is says on the tin!!. I tried this product after trying a rake of other leading brands, and I was pleased..........no very pleased with the result. I found it was easy to apply - the spray application was in a fine mist which did not saturate the skin and did not require blending or rubbing into the skin (well maybe a little around the ankles and toes!!). It smells ok on application but if you apply at night you get a distinctive ...
...It is a little greasy but soon dries, note I said soon and not instantly so allow to dry before putting any clothing on.................you could get away with a lose nightie if applying before bedtime. **A GOOD TIP** Do not cross your legs until completely soaked in or you will end up with patches on the back of your legs. A good, realistic looking tan is the result I got from using this product and I still continue to use this on a regular basis. ...
