L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

I tried the L'oreal Sublime Bronze self tan spray when I had a big occasion to prepare for and I had no time to go to my favorite Sephora store. I went to my local Shoppers Drug Mart around the corner for a quick, easy, self tanner to transform me from ghostly to glowing fast! I knew what I was getting into, because I didn't have many good experiences with cheaper self-tanners. They usually left me streaky or a freaky looking orange shade that caused ...
...so I thought I'd give L'oreal sublime bronze the benefit of the doubt. I scanned over the various shades of light, medium, dark, i and chose the medium shade. It costs a very reasonable $15 to $20 US, which put a smile on my face, and some extra cash in my wallet to buy a bronzing gel in case I ended up looking like a shade of pumpkin. I drove home in a jiffy, and hopped in the shower for my pre self tan preparation. Before self-tanning, you should ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

...up to its reputation. L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-tanning Spray from Boots set me back only £9.99 The name being a selling point of course, this product also appealed to me because (a) it was in the form of a spray - this could be handy for 'hard to reach' area's, and also I was typically used to cream versions. (b) The self-tan looked quite advanced compared to other self-tanning products sharing the shelf. The product offered to not only tan ...
...but to also keep my skin smooth and hydrated. The tan comes in a 150ml transparent spray bottle. This being an advantage as it is always a bonus to know how much of the produce you have left before you just one day, run out. The bottle can become slightly greasy whilst in use i.e switching bottle from hand to hand etc. The product promises to be a non-greasy texture. This being true when it comes to your skin, but not so with the packaging in hand. ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

...came across their recommendation of L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Tanning Spray. I already had a faint tan from the days I did get some sun but it wasn't really strong enough and I wanted to look healthy and like I'd just come back from a few weeks on a beach holiday. I was a bit put off by the price of £11.99 though since I only wanted to test the product and might not like it. My solution to this problem was eBay I wasn't sure if anyone would list the ...
...some auctions up for it. I ended up getting a full and unused bottle for £4 which was a bargain so for those in the same position I'd suggest looking on eBay there are a lot of unused bottles up and even with postage they are half the price. Also, if you like the product and want to regularly buy it, it makes it a hell of a lot cheaper. So, I am new to fake tanning as I have always criticised people who have a streaky look as it makes me cringe. ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

I needed a tan quickly as I had a wedding to go to this weekend and had to bear my legs for the first time this year, so I decided to try this product. I bought the product from my local Boots store and read the instructions on the tin. The blurb reads that there is no need to rub in the spay, you get a 100% natural looking tan, it leaves you with no streaks, no patches or orange marks or palms. Great I thought, foolproof then, I am going to look ...
...Reading the instructions further, it tells you that you do not have to moisturise your skin beforehand but you must exfoliate your skin before you apply the spray. You also must put down a towel on the floor and stand on it, I presume to catch any mist that falls to the floor, it suggests that you wash the towel after you have finished putting on the spray. The instructions state that you should start on your arms and spray from your hands up to ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

Before I begin in earnest, there are probably a few things you need to know about me. I have very pale skin and dark hair. I prefer to think of myself as pale and mysterious, and a typical English Rose, but on the beach in summer, that’s not the look I really want to be going for. So, with summer approaching I decided have a go at self-tanning. Being a bit of a wimp, initially I was scared, having visions of being covered in orange blotches for the ...
...courage to go down to Boots and have a look at what was available. After much deliberation I decided to go for L’Oréal Plénitude Sublime Bronze Self-tanning spray. The product claimed to be quick drying, suitable for dark or pale skin and produce an even, natural looking tan, and as friends had had bad experiences with lotions and mousses before I thought a spray would be best. As it was on special offer in Boots I got it for just under £7 but usually ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

I have used every self-tanning lotion/spray/oil/gel/foam going, from St.Tropez to Rimmel, and always come back to Loreal Sublime Spray. I am a tan-a-holic, and cannot stand to be seen with white bits, as I think that a tan is the ultimate accessory a girl can have. Let's face it, women do look better brown. (Unless of course your'e the porcelain china doll type!) The only thing, is that I'm at work all day long, 5 days a week, and no longer want ...

Believe me, in my experimental trials to find the perfect tan, I've turned orange, dyed my arm hairs brown, and looked like I needed a thorough wash, all for vanity's sake!(Was it really worth it I ask myself?) Loreal Sublime Spray, is most definitely the best self tanning product I have come across. It is very easy to apply, dries quickly(Although it does leave a slightly greasy residue) ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

...self-tanning, and I have found L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray to be very good, with effective results. ~ Application ~ On the bottle the application instructions are not that detailed compared to other fake tans I've used. All it says is: Use · Spray directly on to body and spread evenly. · Wash hands well after use. · Use daily until desired tan is achieved, after which use 2 or 3 times a week. Now that is all you may have to do, but I prefer to ...
...legs greasy and slippery, but L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray is water like, and very absorbent, also easy to apply. Results · First tan starts to appear after 1 hour. · Even and natural looking tan. · Smooth and silky skin. Now it says on the bottle, the first tan will start to appear after 1 hour. I felt for me it took about 2 hours to see any changing results. My skin did feel lovely after application, so maybe that was down to the 'Smoothing Effect' ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

L'Oreal's Sublime Bronze spray is well worth the money - it's about £10 for the body-spray and £9 for the face tanning lotion. Both are very effective and easy to use. If, like me, you've had a few fake-tan disasters in the past, this is a pretty foolproof way to look naturally tanned without looking like you've been Tangoed! It sprays on easily and as long as you rub it in quickly and spend a couple of minutes really blending it, the results are ...
...areas that you don't think of so much, like the inside of your elbows for example, to prevent any tell-tale marks. The great thing about it is that, unlike other self-tanning products, it dries fairly quickly - give it about 10-15 minutes and it won't leave an orange shadow on your bed linen. I find it best to apply it last thing at night before you go to bed, then you wake up with a lovely glow! Depending on how tanned you are already, you'll probbaly ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

PACKAGING Metallic yellow/gold metal bottle, with plastic yellow/orange round nozzle and see-through cap. PRODUCT Natural colour spray, which doesn't show up on skin. Pleasant smell. APPLICATION Spay on liberally at about an arms distance; be careful if you have pale carpets REVIEW I am used to using San Tropez, but a friend of mine recommended this so I thought I'd give it a go, as she looked a nice colour. I have always been told that the ...
...but with all the moisturising I did under the spray, I didn't feel it dried very quickly in fact an hour later I was still feeling a bit sticky, so my advise would be DO NOT OVER MOISTURISE or at least if you do make sure you let it dry before you apply the spray tan. Other tans I've used have had colour so when you apply them to the skin you can see which areas you have or haven't done, making application easier, however even though I couldn't ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

...a few, then I saw L'oreal Self Tan Spray on offer in Boots so decided to give it a go! I did the usual, exfoilating and moisturizing routine first then got ready to apply the tan. I thought that it would easier to do i a dry shower and I was right- it goes everywhere! It is easy to spray on, it comes out in a wet mist which you are meant to apply to your body evenly. The only thing is you have to hold it away from your body so that it doesn't get ...
...tell where you had already sprayed it. You don not have to rub it in or anything. It also has quite a nice smell. When I thought I was done I went to bed and hoped that I would wake up in the morning looking naturally bronzed! I was wrong...... I woke up and the tan had rubbed off on my clothes, I probably noticed it more as I was wearing white though. I also noticed that although mostly I was nice and bronzed, it was streaky! Very streaky in fact. ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

Having tried lots of fake tan products over the years I was really pleased to finally find a range of products that give a 'natural' colour rather than an overnight look of just coming back from the Caribean (and everyone knowing that you haven't been away!) The spray was easy to use, I liked the quickness as I tend to get very bored rubbing in the cream/gel ones and end up rushing and then crying over the results! It was spray and go! - well not ...
...a quick rub in and it seemed to work - and no streaks! I also use the face cream, this again is very natural, just a hint of a tan but very pleasing results - there really is no need to go for the 2 weeks abroad look when it is quite obvious you've not been. Anyway, I have had many a comment on how well I look rather than how tanned I look which I actually prefer. I do tan fairly easy but do not have the time to sit out in the sun (as well as ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

I bought this for a wedding I was going to last weekend and got my partner to spray tan my legs. We did everything according to the instructions and I was really impressed by how even my boyfriend sprayed it up and down my legs. I waited for a couple of hours and had no tan so was quite disappointed but thought I would give give it a bit more time to develop. The instructions said you should develop a light, even tan within two hours. Off to the ...
...not until the evening, I look down at my legs and realise I have orange feet and half orange, half white legs!! I was positive it had been sprayed correctly and evenly but yet It looked so bad. Its almost a week later and I still have one half orange thigh and an orange left ankle!! In future, I will get it done professionally at a salon ... especially when it comes to my own wedding!!! The moral is ... spend more money on a very good fake tan in ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

I have tries lots of self tanning lotions, from tanning towels to St Tropez. From very cheap lotions and posions to the expensive. Before any self tan you must exfoliate and moisturise elbows and knees before application. This one is easy to use, but like any other self application, practise makes perfect! The L'Orel Sublime Self Tan gives no streaks, dries quickly so as you don't have to walk around naked for an hour before getting dressed! This ...
...like many I have tried and tested before! Last about 3 days, but to build up colour, apply every day for 3 days, and every 3 days thereafter. I would recommend this for anyone who is unsure and sceptical about using self tan products. I stumbled upon this product in my local Adsa believe it or not, and was priced at just under £8, and I am sure as summer is aproaching you will be able to find it in most high street chemists, Boots is one I have seen ...

...bit worried and called the L'Oreal helpline who advised me to stop using it immediately. I was told to go and see my doctor if it got worse and they send me a cheque for £20. Over the next 5 days I moisturised like mad and tried to scrub the tan off every night. It didn't come off easily however, which says to me it lasts a long time. I have no idea what caused the rash, my boyfriend looked at the ingredients but couldn't find anything that I haven't ...

Review of L'Oreal Self-Tan Spray

I had a nightmare with the Loreal Sublime bronze airbrush effect. I applied it the way it says on the tin and left it to dry. Went to bed and when I woke up the next morning I had streaks like you would not believe - my wrists and ankles were really really dark and looked awful and my legs and arms had lines of white!!!! Not a good look when I had a wedding to go to the following day - I then spent most of the day with bleach scrubbing my ankles and wrists and whitening toothpaste on my legs to try and tone it down - WILL NOT BE BUYING THIS PRODUCT AGAIN!!!!! ...
