The Reality of Tanning
If you’re an avid fake tanner, then you
will know that the process can be stressful. White Patches, rush jobs and stain
bed sheets all make getting that golden glow a little bit harder. Let’s be honest the process of tanning is
daunting to say the least but we still continue to grab the bottle summer after
summer.
Yet, with summer being in full swing, I am
made increasing aware that there are two types of tanning routines…
1.The blissful pamper sessions, we all
dream off.
2.The rush job we all realistically do.
It
always starts of well, doesn’t it.
The initial misconception that after an
overnight tan we won’t look orange or patchy. A perfect summer look; tanned and
dewy (not sweaty- its Dewy). Throughout
this blog I will be using St. Moriz- available form Boots for £4. A review of
the product is coming tomorrow.
The way we wish …
·
Running a beautiful shower-
something similar to the ones we see daily on herbal essence’s ads.
·
Gracefully exfoliating, shaving
, followed by softly applying tan all over our body.
All
of which would leave our skin looking bronzed. A perfect hour of tanning, away
from the hazard of life.
Realistic.
·
Running the quickest of quick
showers, in which you get shampoo in your eye and fall over.
·
You don’t bother to shave or
exfoliate- let’s face it no one is going to see it any one.
·
And you brace yourself for
finding any sort of white blobs of skin you’ve missed- there will be many.
Yet, still with a bad rush job we all feel
better with a tan- even if we will be repeating the process in a week.
The feeling after a tan...
After tanning I, personally, feel so much
better about myself. Stretch marks look better, skin looks better and you feel
like you can take on the world.
Hope you enjoyed this little ramble about
tanning. Let me know below what your tanning routine is In the comments.
Much Love,

Great post, love, really enjoyed this and the wee bit of humour!
ReplyDeleteI avoid fake tanners because I've never found one that hasn't made me look like I should be working in Willy Wonka's! Wish I could because I love a tan, you're right it makes you look and feel so much better!
