Top 5 Fake Tans

Updated: Jan 21

Summer Tan?!

For those of you that like to be bronzed and golden this post is for you!

There are many benefits of using sunless tan in comparison to physically bathing in the sun or using sun beds, with sunless tanning you can get that radiant glow without putting your health in danger.

Having a tan can do wonders for your self-confidence.

Many women (and men!) report that a spray tan helps them feel more attractive and more confident about their body. Using a fake tan helps to even out complexion and minimise the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite.

Applying fake tan on the facial area is great for people who suffer from acne rosacea or blemishes.

(Please bear in mind if you have pigmentation some sunless tan solutions can pronounce the appearance of pigment and not blend. It would be trial and error with different brands to see which suits your skin the best)

Sunless tanning gives you the freedom to choose how dark or light your tan will be, you won’t have to spend hours in the sun in order to get that sun-kissed look.

I would recommend tanning in the evening before bed and preferably the day before your bedding change as sometimes a small amount of residue on bedding can not be helped.


I think most tanners can safely say at some point they have used Rimmel Instant Tan?

The most recent member to Rimmel tanning collection is the Sun Shimmer Mousse It has a velvety texture and glides onto skin giving you a even finish. Developing over three to six hours leaving you with a flawless, sun-kissed appearance. I love this mousse because it dries super fast and does not leave you feeling sticky.

The best part is, it cost around £7!!!


Ohh this tan has saved me many a times over the last 4 years!

Especially when you have a small baby or babies at home. Sometimes you are just too tired to do a tan last thing at night or even more so afraid you new baby is going to come off with a orange face from bitty! LOL!

This speedy delight develops in 1hr giving you that small gap to get yourself bronzed for whichever occasion you may be prepping for. Another tan that is super fast drying and is the most lovely golden colour. As my children got older I was able to leave the tan on for up to 3 hrs and achieve a deeper tan. £27


Sunright Insta glow is a professional brand not available on the high street, The key ingredient is actually Caramel! so try not to eat it and if that isn't enough to make you buy this tan then the fact you can use it for contouring may do! £31


One of my favourites! The smell of this tan is unreal! Making this tan one of the only ones that I would pop on and go about my day.

It does not rub off on clothes (or your kids faces) so is perfect to develop throughout the day creating the illusion you have caught the sun! The colour is great if you like to be dark. Tip: work fast with this product! £28


For those of you with very fair skin this is the tan for you, wonderfully subtle this tan can be built on. It is not overpowering and leaves you with the choice to build up without frantically scrubbing the next day if by chance you get trigger happy with your tan. Tropic Sun Drench is a professional product and can be ordered through your sales rep linked above, she can give you personal and professional advice with your products. Sun Drench comes with a tanning mitt. £35

ALL tried and tested by yours truly.

Happy Tanning Loves!


Always remember to exfoliate and moisturise prior to using tanning products.

Use a tanning Mitt to save your fingers looking like wotsits.

last but not least sunless tanning products do not protect you from UV rays!

please always apply a good spf when venturing out. All products can be purchased through the links above.
