Choosing a self-tan can be complicated. Here at SWIISH HQ, we take our self-tanning seriously, because – well, because everything looks better with a tan! With so many to choose from, we chatted with our makeup artist friends to get pro’s top picks. The winner – The Bronzer Self Tan.
The Bronzer Self Tan is a luminous cream enriched with Vitamins A and E. It’s also loaded with shea butter, coconut oil and green tea extract.
Before we even get onto the golden glow the tan gives you, can we just take a minute to talk about the luscious smell?! It smells of coconuts and is an instant holiday vibe (thank us later). The Bronzer Self Tan will leave you with a gorgeous glow for up to a week and that’s just with one application. If you’re chasing a really deep tan, then the more you apply – the deeper the colour.
The creamy texture makes it really easy to use – apply it like you would apply your daily moisturiser. Because the tanning cream is golden brown, it’s easy to see where you’re putting it, which helps you not miss any tricky bits. No one wants an uneven tan! For those of us with sensitive skin, applying a tan can almost feel like a trade-off. Apply the tan, but get a skin reaction. Or avoid a skin reaction but be forced to skip the tan. Well no more. The fabulous thing about The Bronzer Self Tan is that it’s paraben and fragrance-free so it’s especially suited to sensitive skin. Winning!
Here at SWIISH, we feel such pride when Aussie products go global, and The Bronzer brand is sold and loved worldwide. It’s proudly Australian-made and owned.
If you plan on applying tan to your face, here are some important tips:
1. Put Vaseline on your eyebrows to stop them getting stained.
2. Blend the tanner right into your hairline and underneath the jawline, just like foundation. If you’ve got lighter hair, we strongly suggest wiping your hair afterward to ensure it doesn’t stain.
And always remember: if you’re thinking you don’t have the time or energy to DIY, but your heart yearns for a fake tan, remember that everything looks better with a tan!
