It’s All About The Tan

21 Comments | Makeup

As I’ve said numerous times I’m addicted to self tanning. I almost never go to tanning salons, just a couple of times a year. Self tanning is much healthier, cheaper and less time consuming. After I posted my New Years Eve look I got a lot of questions about my tan, so here’s my fave products.

From the left: The Crazy Angel self tanning lotion. It gives the most perfect tan, olive-y and gorgeous. It’s a bit hard to apply thought, because it’s so dark. I got mine from beautywonderland.com. My absolute favorite product for going out is the Glo Minerals Body Bronzer. This product is what gave me that nice glowy upper body on New Years Eve :) Simply a must. I got mine from Coverbrands, and I think you only can get it online. Then we have the Xen Tan self tanning lotion, which I used two days in a row before New Years. It gets a huge plus for quick application, but the color doesn’t hold as long as the Crazy Angel one. It holds for like 4-7 days, it varies. I got this one from Coverbrands too, and I haven’t seen it in stores, only online. Then one of the most important products for self tanning, a good body scrub! This one is from Anatomicals. You need it both to remove the tan once it starts to flake, and to prepare the skin before you apply new lotion. So important to remove dead skin cells and stuff. I got mine at Vita, it’s pretty cheap and the best one I’ve ever tried!

So there you have it sweeties! New Year’s resolution for everyone who visit Brun&Blid too often, try self tanning instead!! :)

By the way, the voting at Vixen Blog Awards is soon closing, so I thought I’d remind you one last time that I would be soo happy if you guys would vote for me! You can vote here :)

    Du har alltid en så fin glød i huden så du frister meg til å prøve disse produktene. Er altfor blek ;)
    Du har min stemme i Vixen forresten :)

    Hei! Fast leser i ca ett år nå, men første gang jeg kommenterer. Elsker bloggen din!! Takk for at du fortsatte å blogge etter du kom hjem fra NY.

    Så, et spm: Jeg vil gjerne bruke selvbruning i stedet for solarium, men jeg sliter med å få det pent på hendene! Det blir skjoldete, mørkere noen steder, gult rundt neglene – ser IKKE naturlig ut! Hva gjør du??? Hva er hemmeligheten?

    Blir innmari glad for å få svar! Trenger tan – er blek som sørpa utenfor….

    Selvbruning er fantastisk :) Har tatt det selv i dag, bittelitt mer farge og man føler seg så mye bedre :) Godt nyttår Cathrine!:D

    Jeg har bare prøvd noen få selvbrunere der min favoritt er Garnier Ambre Solaire No-Streaks Bronzer, sprayen altså. Har du prøvd den? I tilfelle, hva synes du? Jeg syns den lukter litt mye, men gir en fin farge. Jeg hater når det blir veldig oransje, i stedet for en mer naturlig brunfarge.

    Do you use the products also on your face? Because I never see difference between the colour on your body and face (how it has to be) , so beautifull!!

    Hey girl! I’m living currently in Asia where white/pearly skin is “a must-have” for all the girls. I tried to follow the trend but I feel so akward haha Your post made me miss having a nice sun-kissed skin so much…. that I almost immediately ran to Sephora to get a bronzer haha

    Yes, I totally forgot to add that one! I use the Garnier spray for my face, but I don’t use it very often :)

    Jeg har prøvd et par sprayer, men ender alltid opp med et veldig skittent bad, så har ikke brukt det så mye.. Men jeg bruker Garnier-sprayen til ansiktet :)

    Ja, den blir litt mye for dagtid. Men hvis man blander med bodylotion går det helt fint :)

    Tusen takk søte! Jeg har faktisk aldri problemer med det.. Jeg smører de godt inn med selvbruning, men så vasker jeg innsiden av hendene godt, så tar jeg på masse bodylotion og smudger alt godt ut. Viktig å smudge godt, slik at man unngår skarpe streker osv. Så er det viktig å smøre ut godt på fingrene, og mellom de :)

    Can you explain how you apply it. Do you apply the tanner in the neck? because you don’t get lines or
    colour difference? it looks perfect!!

    Selvbruning er genialt – og definitivt mye bedre enn solarium!
    Jeg har selvfølgelig stemt på deg i Vixen Blog Awards :-D

    Hei! jeg skal på badeland med samboeren og hans barn og hans søster og barna hennes.. så da må jeg inn i badedrakt (grøss..) hvilke av selvbrunerne ville du anbefalt av angel og xentan sin? tenker at det er grelt lys og klorvann så det er så fort gjort å se oransje ut.. takk :)

    Hmm, for hele kroppen tror jeg kanskje at jeg ville valgt Xen Tan. Det kommer nok til å bli litt krevende å få Crazy Angel jevn og fin over hele kroppen.. Xen Tan er litt lettere å jobbe med :) Klem
