Top 5 Self Tanners

Self Tanners

I have tried many ‘faux glow’ products and these are my favorite 5. I know a lot of people that are
afraid to try self tanners because they don’t want to look orange (yeah..the umpa lumpa look is not
so hot..) But if applied properly I promise you that you will not look like Pauly D from The Jersey
Shore. *Fist Pump*!!


1. Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer- I have been using this product on and off for years.
It’s great if you are not looking for a dramatic tanned look- it allows you to build color gradually.
Apply this product before bed, let it dry and wake up with a natural glow-the title doesn’t lie!

2. Lancome Flash Bronzer- This product is perfect for your face and is anti-aging (no one wants
wrinkles)! As you know, the face is one of the slowest parts on your body to tan from the sun, so
‘Flash Bronzer’ is the ideal finishing touch you need to balance out the color to match the rest of
your beautifully tanned self.

3. L’oreal Sublime Bronze- I started using this product recently and I absolutely love it! It is an
instant bronzer which makes allows you to see easily if you’ve gotten even coverage but it is a little
tricky to apply. Make sure to wash your hands after applying (don’t forget areas such as your wrists
and between your fingers!) I use this product as an all over instant tanner. ‘Sublime Bronze’ also has
a lot of build in sparkle and will remain on your skin until you shower, so if being sparkly isn’t your
thing I wouldn’t recommend this product.

4. Cargo Multi-Mix Bronzer- ‘Multi-Mix’ is similar to ‘Jergens Natural Glow’ but the thing I like
about this product is that it can be added to your foundation to give your skin a sun kissed look. Also
provides an all over even tan.

5. MAC To The Beach Bronze- This product is similar to ‘L’oreal Submline Bronze’ but can be
washed off at the end of the day. It also has a lot of sparkle. So if you want a short term tan ‘To The
Beach’ is exactly what you need for your one day affair.

Falsies Mascara Review

Falsies Mascara
I am a mascara whore and the faux lashes queen so when I first saw the ad for Maybellines
new ‘falsies’ mascara I couldn’t wait to try it! I wear fake lashes almost every day so the name
of this product alone sparked my interest. I know it is completely unreasonable to even compare
any mascara to the look of fake lashes because it can never measure up, but that being said I
am very impressed with this product!

‘Falsies’ adds great length and volume and zero clumping! Another thing I found different than
other drug store products is that this mascara dries dry-which makes sense to ampĀ  up the
‘fake’ look other than giving a glossy effect like most mascaras tend to do. I always recommend
curling your lashes before using this or any other mascara- nothing looks worse than pin straight
eyelashes! Curl those lashes ladies! :)

Although I do not plan on tossing my false lashes to the side anytime soon, I am happy with
this product and love the intensity of the finished look.

Have any of you tried ‘falsies’ yet?
