Boots Airbrush Tan

For those of who who battle with pasty skin, I think I may just have come up with the answer.... Airbrush tan!! I've dappled in the world of sunless tanning for years now and have tried everything from St Tropez and all its chocolate-colour glory, to the jaundice-rendering (at least for me anyway!) Clarins self-tan but was still on the hunt for that ever-ellusive 'natural' looking tan.... Until now! I'm an avid member of the airbrush tanning forum ...
...and it was through this website that I initially found out about the new tanning phenomenon. My real trip into the world of airbrush tanning however, began one dreary Sunday during a shopping trip to Lakeside (my local shopping centre) where 'the tanning shop' was doing free demos to advertise their new sunless tans. Intrigued, I walked round to the other side of the make-shift booth they had erected and saw a young lady standing in her underwear ...

Review of Boots Airbrush Tan

I have very pale skin. One could almost verge on 'blue' in the description. I used to lament this fact all the time as a teenager when the beautiful people would sit in the sun at lunchtime with their skirts around their hips, turning a smooth, golden colour. All I would have was a very sore red line where my skirt had been, humph. As an adult, with more money and freedom, I have tried a variety of ways to improve my colour. I have tried sunbeds ...
...and can be expensive), fake tanning lotion (can be streaky and stinks to high heaven) and, shock, horror, the sun itself, (not much of it around in the UK and, again, not much good if you don't tan naturally). I came to the conclusion that I would have to wait until I am about 50 and my skin is so weathered that it finally gives in and tans! That was until God Himself sent down to Earth a new invention. One that would change the lives of sickly-looking ...

Review of Boots Airbrush Tan

I think there’s a genetic defect in my family, the rest of my family tans lovely and manages to maintain it throughout the winter, but oh no not me! During the darkest months of winter and even the warmer months of spring, I still manage to maintain the classic English rose white skin. It’s not even that in my opinion, I feel I’d do a rather good job (and be convincing too) at impersonating a milk bottle! So over the last couple of years in an attempt ...
...everything… sun beds, stand up sun showers, fake tan, tan maximising creams – you name it, it’s in my bathroom cupboard! Well obviously not the sun bed itself! Unfortunately I’ve also had to suffer the consequences… orange skin (told everyone I’d had an allergic reaction), streaked face (told everyone it was wind burn) and the customary dirty brown colour (couldn’t think up one by then, was all out of ideas)! However last year, as if someone up in ...

Review of Boots Airbrush Tan

If your the type of woman who wants bronze golden skin without the damaging effects of the sun but also can not be bothered with applying fake tan then an air brush tan is going to be just right for you. There are many tanning shops popping up in high streets and shopping centres. Many of the sun bed centres and nail boutiques also now offer this as another beauty service. They apply the tan by a special spraying machine which is a long tube with ...
...it makes the application easier and there are no noticeable marks or streaks. Most places you don't have to book but if it's on a busy high street you may prefer to book yourself in and get an appointment. I phoned in advanced and was told on the phone to shave, exfoliate and moisturise my skin the day before my appointment and on the day not to wear any perfume or deodorant as this can interact with the tan. I arrived five minutes before my appointment ...
