Hellloooo Guys,

Yesterday we went with friends to Alton Towers. It was soo much fun but very very tiring. Last night when we arrived at home I was basically dead hehe went straight into bed. As we live quite far away from Alton Towers we drove up their on Sunday and stayed in a Hotel. On Sunday when we left home it was very sunny and warm but we didn’t have time to take pictures so we decided to take pictures when we got to the Hotel. However, as you can see from the pics they have all been taken inside the Hotel room as it was really heavy raining when we arrived. I don’t like photos that have been taken inside but we had no other option.

Anyway here is the the long awaited review on the Clarins Delectable Self Tanning Mousse:
On Saturday evening I finally managed to try the Clarins Self tanner.

Application:
The mousse is very very thick but surprisingly it soaks in quite quickly. The mousse is clear but because it is quite thick you can easily see where you have already applied it. After the application my skin felt amazingly soft and not sticky at all. Normally, when I apply self tanner I feel really dirty as my whole body feels very sticky but for the first time it did not feel like I had self tanner on. Also there was no disgusting smell. My conclusion was WOWW :)

Next morning:
I got up and firstly looked on my bed sheets to see whether it has stained but NADA - no stains at all. Then I ran to the mirror. I was not as tanned as expected but you could see a slightly golden tan.

Nowwwww… everything sounds perfect up to here but unfortunately it isn’t. Firstly, I was quite disappointed that the tan wasn't darker, Secondly, it went a bit patchy around my neck and ankles even though I exfoliated every centimetre of my body before applying the self tan. Not sure if it was my fault therefore I might give it a second try to see if it gets patchy again.

To sum up...

Good sides:
+no disgusting smell
+no stickiness
+very moisturizing
+doesn’t dry out skin
+doesn’t turn orange

-only gives you a slightly golden tan
-went a bit patchy
-quite pricy

Overall, I would definitely recommend it to very pale skin as it doesn’t turn orange and gives only a slightly golden tan. However, if you are after a darker tan then this is nothing for you. If you have anymore questions regarding the self tanner, just leave a comment and I will respond as soon as possible.
