Boots Soltan Self Tan Light

Advantages: nice, streak free tan
Disadvantages: the way Boots kept prompting you to buy their other products through the directions on the can

Boots Soltan Self Tan Light Three months I won this in a packet of prizes. Last week, with the good weather (though I like the weather, I don't want skin care so instead of hours of sunbathing and burnt skin, I opted for faking it) I decided I wasn't going to be the palest person on the planet and got to work. I normally use the Piz Buin fake tan and I'm never used mousse before. There's no category for the light mousse so I hope you don't mind ...
...of Boots. As it's a Boots brand, you can only get it at Boots. It's on special offer so at the moment it's £4.65 instead being £6.99 and in the can contains 150ml. On the can, it says for superior results use Soltan Pre Self-Tan Exfoliator Exfoliator and Soltan Pre Self Tan Moisturiser. They are both at the moment £2.32. And if you want stain free hand, use Soltan Self Tan Applicator Mitt, which is now also, £2.32. Why does this free tan seem to ...

Cheats guide to becoming the Golden Goddess

Advantages: Easy to apply, very nearly foolproof, nice colour
Disadvantages: Not everyone will like the nutty smell

...and is available in most boots or via the wellbeing boots website. One lovely brown metallic canister (150ml) lasts me about 5-6 applications. By application I mean my legs (calves down onto feet) , both arms, shoulders, neck and face. A golf ball size amount of the mouse will do one leg. Just apply in downwards stroking movements. Its really easy. But beware, when you squirt out the mouse remember its going to expand, so don’t squirt out too much. ...
...to my face, but the light version of moose is really subtle, and gave me a healthy glow, and meant my face didn’t stand out when compared to the tan on my neck. The product has a lovely nutty smell, but I appreciate that not everyone will like the scent. But its not too strong or overpowering, so don’t worry. Because the product is a moose, it is moisturising, and you don’t necessarily need to apply body lotion/moisturiser before hand apart from ...

Look No White Bits

Advantages: natural looking tan, easy to apply
Disadvantages: the rest of my body needed more coats than my arms

...weekends ago I was in Boots and picked up my starter kit that contained 50ml each of Pre Self-Tan Exfoliator, Moisturiser and a can of mousse. I applied the tan last Wednesday night following a couple of days of exfoliating, even managing to contort myself to reach my back. I was quite impressed with the results however, with no streaks and a light golden colour, however, my arms were darker than the rest of my body. Never mind, I just gave the rest ...
...after that. In fact, I was at a cashline at the weekend and this bloke asked me if he had missed the sun somewhere! The Packaging My pack came in a plastic box containing the three tubes, however, I shall just describe the mousse can as that is what this op is supposed to be about after all. The can itself is copper in colour with a cream lid. At the top it says “Boots” in purple writing and below this it says “Soltan” in black writing with a cream ...

Slow and steady wins the tan...

Advantages: Easy to control with no scary Tango experiences
Disadvantages: Only for the faint-hearted!

...conquest, so to speak, is Boots Soltan Self-tan mousse in Light. Since I am particularly pale, and in varying degrees to make matters worse, the main problem I am faced with when using self-tan products is that they invariably look far too dark to look natural. Also, without a perfect application, which I hasten to add is not the easiest of things to achieve, any bits that I miss stick out like a sore thumb. Bearing this in mind when I went to select ...
...that promised a lighter effect rather than a deeper colour. I decided on the Soltan mousse, because it was on an offer saving £2.34, but the normal price will be £6.99, which seems a little steep compared to other brands, but it all depends on what you’re willing to pay. The instructions advise that you should exfoliate first, but that’s common to all self-tans, so be prepared to scrub up! On application, the mousse is white, which worried me a ...

Want to look Healthy?

Advantages: gives you a healthy look, doesn't smell
Disadvantages: none

...this product last year from Boots the Chemist as I used to work across the road from there and was always on the lookout for new products. I have tried many false tans, starting with the cheapest going right upto the dearest. This Self-Tan Mousse comes in the shade Fair/Medium, I don't know if you can get a darker one or not, I bought this one as Iam very pale skinned. It cost me something like £7/9.00, I think. You get rather a lot in a 150ml ...
...would buy. It comes in a bright yellow bottle with a white nozzle for the foam to come out. I find it's best to exfoliate my skin first, this means buying some exfoliator like Aapri and rubbing all the dead skin away.Then I moisturise my skin and apply the self-tan Mousse afterwards. Everybody has a different way of doing it, some people leave the skin wet, which I'm sure somebody told me not to do. The Mousse comes out in a light brown colour ...

faking it

Advantages: starter kit includes exfoliater, moisturiser & tanning lotion
Disadvantages: mousse is white to begin with so difficult to se when you apply it and a bit smelly!

...naturally, I decided to try Boots Soltan starter kit. The kit includes a 50ml tube of exfoliater, moisturiser and a can of tanning mousse.I found that the first two treatments left my skin lovely and soft and the mousse was relatively easy to apply, although I would recommend buying an applicator mitt as it helps ensure even coverage and stops your fingers from getting stained. The only drawbacks I found were that the mousse is white and therefore ...
...was a bit wiffy when it started to develop. After a couple of hours my skin had developed a lovely light golden glow and no streaky bits or orange hues in sight! It lasted a couple of days and I've since topped it up again. I don't know if the final colour would suit darker skin tones but for fair skinned people like me it gives you the chance to glow without any red bits! ...

Tanning without the Oompa-Loompa look

Advantages: cheap, easy to apply, nice colour
Disadvantages: none at all

...honest. I'd already used to Boots Soltan cream and that just did the usual. The mousse on the other hand was great. It came out of the can nicely without getting everywhere and it applied beautifuly and rinsed of my hands so that I wasn't left with orange hands like i usually am. I had a lovely tan after a couple of hours and went to Spain pruodly wandering around in my bikini. There was absolutely no orange at all to be seen on these pins and for ...

Cheep and effective!!!

Advantages: Easy application, excellent colour, no lizard skin effect when wearing off
Disadvantages: not coloured, and a bit slow to absorb

This self tan is probably one of the cheepest on the market, yet it is easy to apply, quick to dry and gives a super colour that lasts about 5 days. Sometimes (if you put too much on) it needs a bit of rubbing in to get it all to absorb but its well worth it!! As with many of the self tan mouses , it is uncoloured so it can be difficult to know where you have applied it, but as it is a bit slower to absorb you have enough time to even out the application. ...
