Fake Bake Instant Self Tanning Spray

Advantages: Instant, natural colour, lasts a long time
Disadvantages: Sometimes the can can break

...NB - The product is actually called Fake Bake Instant Self Tanning Spray, so that is what I will refer to it as in this review. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why I purchased the product ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was first introduced to Fake Bake Instant Self Tanning Spray when I attended The Beauty Show at the NEC 2 years ago. This is a show for beauty therapists and only trusted brands and products are sold here, at retail price. When I walked past the Fake Bake stand, I saw someone getting a spray tan, I stayed and watched for a few minutes to see the outcome and when the girl stepped out the tent, she looked amazing. Her tan was even, streak free and natural looking, it was a really beautiful colour. After seeing this I went to the counter to speak to one of the representitives about what products I could purchase and they...

Review of Fake Bake Aerosol Airbrush Tan

Be Bronze with Avon Self-tan Spray

Advantages: Reasonable price
Disadvantages: Instructions aren't too clear

...Being such a pale person, I've always tried to seek out the best self tan products out there that don't make you look orange! My boyfriend's mum is an Avon representative, so a few months ago when she gave me the latest catalogue I decided to give the Self Tan Spray a go. It was half price at £5 a bottle so I thought this was pretty good! ~~~ The Company ~~~ Avon has been running as a cosmetics company for over 117 years now. The company has 3.9 million independent sales representatives worldwide, 160,000 of these being in the UK. Products are also available to be bought online too, so you can see that the customer base is pretty widespread! One important fact about Avon is that they were the first major beauty company to stop testing on animals - this was in 1989. OK, so now you know about the company...

Review of Avon Bronze Self Tanning Lotion Spray

St Tropez Self Tan

Advantages: Great colour and very even colour
Disadvantages: Takes time and alot of effort

..., and in my opinion looks a really natural colour. It?s great because if you want a really deep tan you can build it up by applying it on consecutive days but I have always found it to look dark after just one day. It is relatively un messy to use because its so thick it doesn?t drip on the floor like sprays can but you have to wash you sheets every time you use it and you do feel really sticky all evening with it on. Trust me you won?t be popping out anywhere once you?ve put it on, you will not want to be seen. It is relatively good value for money, depending on how much you use it. Fake tan is really high maintenance so be prepared to spend hours exfoliating and moisturising. I have found the spray better for me but I think its worth ago if your interested in using it and you like to go really brown. Also it?s great if you usually use sun...

Review of St. Tropez Self Tan Lotion

Amazing Fake Tan

Advantages: Natural Deep Colour
Disadvantages: Price

...After using tonnes of high-street fake tans I was very apprehensive about trying Fake Bake but decided to give it a go. The first time I purchased Fake Bake was from www.lookfantastic.co.uk and was in a set which included Fake Bake original lotion, body scrub and body oil and I was left with not much change from £50.00!! I thought it must be something special at that sort of price. I followed the instructions that came with it and started off by using the body polish all-over in the shower. The Body Polish is great it smells great too, it doesn't take long to apply and makes your skin feel and smell gorgeous. I then followed this busy using Fake Bake Body Oil, which as smells great. The oil is sprayed on whilst the skin is still wet and rubbed in gently. I then towel tried my skin and prepared myself for the fake tan. I used...

Review of Piz Buin Self Tan Spray

St Topez Self Tan lotion

Advantages: Bottle last a long time
Disadvantages: Tan can wash off very easily

...When using this product you had to start in stages by doing a small section at a time. I found it was easier starting with the legs and spraying the product onto my leg then using an old sponge to spread it around as this product stains your hands terribly. It gave you a very good overall tan, although you needed to be sure you had covered all areas. I thought I had covered my feet an ankles well until the product had completely dried and I realised I had patches. I feel this is a good tanning product and the tan is very natural, however it washes off very easily and rubs of when near clothing. The bottle lasts a long time but dont quite feel it is worth the money as there is better products out there which are less hassle....

Review of St. Tropez Self Tan Lotion

Self-tanning sensation..

Advantages: realistic colour!!!
Disadvantages: definitely the price

...I am always a bit sceptical about self-tanning products. I have tried about three of them so far and always ended up with very uneven strange orangey or dark brown colour. On one occasion it was sooo bad that I couldn’t wear a skirt for a week because whatever I tried I just couldn’t wash it off!!! I have decided to give this product a chance after seeing it in every fashion magazine on the market. First of all I have to say it is expensive!! I paid £29.95 for my 240ml instant self-tanning mouse at Harrods. I think the actual sun tanning lotion is a bit cheaper. The main difference between the mousse and the lotion is the time it takes to dry and the colour of the product. The mousse is much easier to use! 1) It is very easy to apply!!! So the product gets top marks just for that. The mousse itself already has...

Review of St. Tropez Self Tan Lotion

Fake Bake - The best fake tan out there!

Advantages: AMAZING COLOUR! No smell, Easy to apply, Long lasting
Disadvantages: Can be a little costly

...Well what can I say, I am one of those girls who hates being pale! Call me what you like tanorexic, tan tastic whatever, all i know is i like a tan even in december! I have tried and tested so many products from Xen Tan all the way to Johnsons holiday skin. Until one day I was told by a friend to try Fake Bake and that they have read that all the celebritys have used it. So I thought, why not? I ordered a bottle off Ebay (Only about £15 inc p&p) in a few days it came and I couldnt wait to try it! Its a brown bottle with gold writing on it. It says to exfoliate and to top it up every week. How to apply Fake Bake properly: First EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE! If you don't do this you are just putting tan onto dead skin cells which means it is prone to come off alot quicker and not be even. ALWAYS exfoliate before you shave...

Review of Fake Bake Self Tanning Lotion

Fake Bake still Original & the Best Fake Tan Ever Made

Advantages: a treat for your skin, Fake Bake is a treat for your skin. Imagine applying liquid chocolate and
Disadvantages: Fake Bake vs. St. Tropez - Fake Bake is the W I N N E R ! No Contest!

...Bake on for 2 days, then build up colour and have a beautiful Golden Tan, which lasts for weeks as long as I remember to moisturise regularly. Every single thing about Fake Bake I love - including the accompanying Passion Fruit exfoliator which smells absolutely luscious. I have eczema and the Fake Bake even gets rid of rashes! It contains 100 % Natural ingredients, so it is a treat for your skin and washes off sheets no problem. If I was to compare Fake Bake to St. Tropez, I prefer this to St. Tropez No Contest!! St. Tropez is far to chemically for me and if you have asthma or ezcema than I 'd say to you buy Fake Bake Please! Chemicals in products such as St. Tropez aggitate Asthma!!!...

Review of Fake Bake Self Tanning Lotion

Natural Looking Tan - Finally!

Advantages: Looks great, easy to use, even colour.
Disadvantages: Can be a little messy

...of a special blend of fruit-acids with a dihydroxy-complex that creates this natural tanning lotion. It is not tested on animals as it contains no harmful ingredients that would require extensive animal testing (Great!) . --------------- | Application | --------------- Before doing anything make sure that you are wearing gloves. These are provided, but your should be able to get suitable gloves from pretty much anywhere. You must also wash, exfoliate, and moisturise beforehand (Day before is best - moisturise really really well), like with all other self tanning products, if you want to achieve the best results. I tend to begin applying mine after a shower, again moisturising well. Once you are dry, begin applying the lotion, covering all areas (this is essential as it is hard to tell when is properly covered). On areas that you want...
