Clarins Liquid Bronze Self Tanning Lotion for Face and Decollete


If you ever have the misfortune of stumbling into me sans make-up not only would you recoil in horror (I know I do most mornings) but you would most probably notice that my face is several shades lighter than my body. The reason for my reverse ombre body effect is due to the fact I have never allowed my face to tan and always wear a high sunscreen...yup even here in sunny Scotland. I refuse to age prematurely and if that means a case of pale face then so be it. I say pale face when really I am naturally quite olive and untanned real or faux I am around the NC30 mark in MAC but my body is around an NC35...annoying I know.

Anyway I have noticed that a good self tanner for the face helps to not only warm up my skin tone a smidgen but to also even out my complexion and as a result aiding the disguise of my pesky old acne scars.
I'll be blunt and state that when it comes to self tanners there is very few that I have tested out over the years (I danced my entire childhood all the way through until I was 21 so I've had my fair share of self tanning experiences  and the two I always run back to are Clarins Liquid Bronze Self Tanning Lotion for my face and St.Tropez for my body. Both products never over bronze and work with my natural skin tone to add a little depth of colour all the while giving a very natural finish...not an orange streak in sight!

Like most I have to be careful with what I apply to my face but I have yet to have anything but wonderful results from Clarins Liquid Bronze Self Tanning Lotion which conveniently happens to be a breeze to apply. Simply apply a little to a cotton pad and swipe over your face, neck and decollete and allow it to work its magic overnight.The next day you will awaken to a healthy summer glow that J-Lo herself would be jealous of! Oh and as an ending plus point a little goes a long way, I use this maybe twice a week (sometimes more) and find a bottle lasts up to three months.
