St.Tropez Self Tan Express Bronzing Mousse, per stuk verpakt (1 x 200 ml)

As an alabaster girly, this turns me into a bronze goddess. Best colour out there. Easy to apply, no streaks. Not orange.

Mousse auto bronzante juste superbe ! C’est génial qu’elle soit colorée pour savoir où on l’applique et le résultat dure dans le temps et reste naturel

Of all the self tanners I have used this one is by far the best! I love it. It doesn’t turn you orange and no one knows it’s fake. I get compliments all the time. I read a review of another product last year or the year before and these instructions were given. And have been invaluably helpful in this process. I have modified it some as I have found better and more efficient or long lasting ways to self tan since. This is how I do it and I have never had an issue.Shower and shave in the morning. If you do the tanning right after this you’re pores and folicles are more open and exposed and you will get dots.That night shower and rinse off. Use your most abrasive loufa. Make sure you exfoliate everywhere. Even if you don’t think you’re going to tan that are. (I tan my entire body). Exfoliate your face as well. Make sure you hit the elbows, wrists, hands, privates, knees, ankles and feet twice.After you dry off lotion you entire body with a non greasy lotion. I use Lubriderm. Now for this areas I just mentioned. For your feet using a small amount of coconut oil make sure to get your heels and whatever is left on your hands rub over the toes and up towards the ankles. On all the other parts (elbows, wrists, hands, privates, knees, and ankles) moisturize those with a slightly more emollient lotion (I use the bath and body works paraffin lotion).WEARING GLOVES start with your legs using 2 pumps for each leg run this between your palms and pat on your upper leg and lower leg avoiding the knees. Rub in one are such as your lower leg and then your upper leg. When the lotion is mostly rubbed in go over your knees and in a sweeping motion go over your feet from ankles to toes.Continue moving up your body ensuring the lotion is completely rubbed in.Use the technique used for the legs on the arms. You will only need 2 pumps total for both arms. And yes you want to sweep over your arm pits. Otherwise you will have streaks. You will do your wrists and hands later.Taking a small amount of your face moisturizer (about half of what you usually use) mix it with 1 pump of tanner and apply to your face a sweep down your neck. Whatever is left over apply to your ears and behind your ears. The bottle will teall you to avoid your hairline. Gently sweep into it. If you don’t you will have a steaky line.At this time if you want you can repeat the application process. I usually do depending on the time of year. If it is in the beginning or end of summer/tanning I apply less. Remember the idea is for it to look natural.Now for the hands. At this point I wash my gloves so I can save them for next time and remove them. Using a cotton ball (you should only need one) place a small pea(ish) sized amount of tanner. Starting with the underside (palm area) of your wrist start at just the base of your palm where your first bend wrinkle is. Sweep the lotion in small strokes up your wrist and then apply to the top of your wrist. Repeat this on the other wrist. Apply another very small drop of tanner to the cotton ball and allow it to soak in. Rub this on the back side of your hands up your finger tips and slightly between your fingers on the webbing.At this point you will feel sticky. Depending on how much time I have I will wander around in my robe or throw on loose fitting clothing and a t-shirt bra.Also depending on how deep you want your tan (I always go the full time as some will wash off in the shower). Keep it on the full 3 hours. I’m usually tired by the time I get off work go through this step and relax so I sleep in it. I have never had a problem.When you shower the first time it is best to simply gently wash with soap and do not scrub. Yes you can shave but don’t be rough. Pat yourself dry.I have found that most people have the issue of their tanner fading splotchy. I will tell you this is a lack of proper moisturizing. Every day after your shower use coconut oil. Not a lot just enough on your arms, legs and feet. Then go back over your entire body with lotion. After I discovered this technique by accident I have continued this year round.I hope this helps! Happy tanning!
