Hey Guys! Today I have another exciting review. St Tropez gradual tan in shower tanner. Available from St Tropez website, Superdrug, BeautyBay and many other retailers. When I was younger I used to tan in a lot of different ways from sunbeds to instant tan, gradual tanner and spray tans, however the last few years I haven't really used any tanning products. I saw Laura Lee use a similar ;product on one of her YouTube videos & I decided to give it a go. However I wanted to use St Tropez as they have always been a great self tanner with natural results. I think sometimes you pay for quality when it comes to tanning products. This product seemed far to good to be true when I first saw it. To turn the shower off and just use a 2 pence piece, massage in circular motions into the skin. It gives you a slight white cream effect when applying which helps you to see where you have been. You then wait for 3 minutes ( which I find really hard to judge the time ) then simply pop the shower back on and rinse off. Making sure to pat yourself dry not rub. So the instruction are fairly simple and it really doesn't take long to do compared to other ways of tanning. I went to sleep after having my shower and I couldn't believe it when I woke up! It had worked so well, I had a beautifully natural light brown tan, it looked flawless, no streaks or missing gaps. It was even and so natural. I was really happy with the results. but I decided I would like to be slightly darker so when the light tube had finished I purchased medium. Again the results where just as amazing, natural, flawless and no uneven areas. It was just quite a bit darker and perfect for my skin tone. So I will definitely be sticking with medium. I have now got into a routine with applying this. On the directions it says to apply it 3 days in a row. I however have changed it slightly. I apply it all over the body one day, the following day I do just my arm, the next day just my legs and then back to all over, followed by a day of rest. This is just my personal routine and what is working best for me and giving me the best results, which I am happy with. I do recommend however starting with the light one. It is a good one to start with just to find your feet. For you to work out how dark you would like to be, to get used to the application and how often you need to apply it. This gradual tanner really doesn't have an awful smell with it like some tanning products can. There is a light scent but it is fairly pleasant. When using this my skin feels moisturised as well which I love! Over all I would highly recommend this to everyone! Whether you aren't somebody that uses fake tan but would like to experiment, this is definitely the one to try, it is so user friendly, or whether you are a tanning fanatic that likes to have a sun kissed look. It get's a full 10/10. The only advice I would give is to make sure you are exfoliating regularly especially those area's that fake tan can cling to, (the elbows, knees, knuckles, heels so on.) I also use St Tropez Tan Enhancing Moisturiser which helps to prolong the tan and reduces the tan breaking up and improves fading. This is £10 available from the St Tropez website, Superdrug, BeautyBay and many other retailers. I will leave some picture down below, with the captions so you can see how the tan progressed. Until Next Time, Kayleigh Lisa ♡

Wow looks amazing on you! Such a lovely colour. However I brought this in the darker version and used completely as instructed and nothing happened! Literally no colour build at all 😔. Switched to skinny tan which us incredible, looks great in you though! X
