If you follow me on Twitter, you would have noticed that I am forever chatting about my love for fake tan. Not a particular brand, just fake tan in general. I couldn't have been more happier when I received this tan from Lingerie Please. I started experimenting with St Tropez, when I was about 15. I loved it, but I always got it done professionally - fake tan back in the day was HARD to apply without streaking. There has a;sp been some major fake tan accidents over the last decade. I have been every shade of orange that you could possibly imagine and tried every single brand available.
I haven't used St Tropez since my school days and I have to say I was ever so surprised about the outcome.
♥ Applying this tan was easy, the only warning I could give is that a little goes a long way. The first time I applied it, I ended up with a face that looked like it had been dipped in chocolate sauce.
♥ With this product especially, it is essential that you EXFOLIATE, as it really does stick to any dry patch, no matter how small and as always a good moisturiser is key.
♥ Another bonus - it dries very quickly, so no need to stand around naked feeling like an idiot - and this is the only tan that hasn't left a kirsty shape orange mark on my bed sheets - another bonus.
♥ I also found that it is almost impossible for St Tropez to streak! The tan was - well I say caribbean bronzed - which is how I like it. lol! My sister commented: 'for once your brown and not orange' errr thanks I guess.
♥ I used latex gloves to apply the tan as I haven't quite mastered a mit.
♥ I am incredibly pleased with the outcome and will be throwing out all the other brands I have accumulated.
♥ Can I say once you go to St Tropez you never go back to St Moritz - ha ha, sorry I had to.
Hugs & Kisses

Agreed! Love St Tropez foam but be careful on inside elbows :)
Your nail art is pretty too xxx
I am always so scared of being patchy and orange, so I rarely use self-tan lotion (I end up in the tanning salon - very bad). X

Great review. I've been using Fake Bake and have been loving the results but I recently got an email with this in it from Sephora. I'm definitely going to have to try it now. xoxo
I think St Tropez is really great - I love the mousse. I think Xen-Tan is fantastic too!

Haha you should have posted a photo of your chocolate sauce face ^_^

Wow going to have to try this stuff! Sounds too good! :o) xx
This review is fabby! I've never used St Tropez as I'm happy with Loreal Sublime - but I'm now tempted to try St Tropez as you said it's more brown than orange. xx

I've had a St Tropez spray tan before it turned out good. I usually use Piz Buin it's my favourite self tan but they discontinued the type I was using :( so I may give this a go xx
your nails!!!! <3
I love it!
Love that you say you looked like you'd be dipped in chocolate! :)
I've got REALLY pale skin naturally, would you say that this one would suit me? Or do you know some paler coloured ones?

Last day of my giveaway!! xxx
Can't go wrong with St Tropez
x
do ♥ it!
Haa this made me laugh! I use the St Tropez mousse. It scared me at first because it literally looks like chocolate mousse but you're so right - dries straight away. No naked star jumps needed, ha!
Does using a latex glove work alright? i use a mitt but find they break so fast!

I've never fake tanned before, but if I wanted to then this would probably be the one I'd go for. I'd always known it must be good because when I used to work in Boots people ALWAYS used to buy this one x
Just a Thought
I have given up with fake tan 'coz nothing seems to turn out perfect for me! Maybe it's time for some St. Tropez! xoxo
