FAKE TAN FAVES

Yes, you read that right, Pale Paigey has converted to fake tan and she even has a few favourites! Never thought I'd see the day where I'd using tan but after seeing a photo of me on a night out a few weeks back and how I ever so nicely blended into my boyfriends WHITE top - it was time to tan. My younger sister is a pro and she's been using the St. Moriz Instant Self Tanning Lotion in Medium for as long as I can remember. I really like it, its easy to apply because it leaves behind a stain so you can see if you've missed any parts. It blends easily, drys instantly and the colour once it's washed off is stunning but the tan doesn't last that long for me. Within two days or so its started to fade big time. Good for a quick fix though. Next onto the L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Express Pro Self-Tanning Dry Mist in Medium. I adore the colour of this tan so much, it's a lovely brown colour without looking orange. My only criticism of this tan is the mist isn't tinted which after spraying yourself, allowing the tan to develop and then four hours later realising you've missed a huge patch on your arm isn't the greatest feeling. Pretty please L'Oreal can you bring out a tinted spray please?
The St. Tropez Gradual Tan Everyday Spray is lovely for a natural looking tan. Like the Sublime Bronze tanner, this tan doesn't have a guide colour but regardless of that, I haven't come out patchy. It gives a tiny amount of colour but this does slowly intensify if you use the spray everyday for a little while. Perfect when I'm being too lazy to tan properly. One tan that trumps everything for me is the St Moriz Instant Self Tanning Mousse in Dark. Unlike the St. Moriz lotion, this colour seems to last up to a week on skin without looking patchy or streaky. It is a tinted mousse so you get a guide colour which is super easy to blend and dries quick. I love the colour of this so much as it's dark but still doesn't look fake.

JULY GLOSSYBOX

I have to be 100% honest and say that when this box first arrived I was like 'meh', but the more I keep thinking about it, the more I'm starting to like it.

I would have never have chosen any of the products in here by myself (that explains my meh reaction) but then I think to myself and say, well isn't the reason I signed up to glossybox is to try products I wouldn't have discovered on my own? Yes. Yes it was!

This box contains really good products and I'm excited to try them, shame I judge it before I saw its potential! 

Apart from Essie and Sleek, these brands are new to me so it should be interesting to try this box out over the next month! This months box contained:

Sleek Pout Paint in Cloud 9

Sleek Pout Paint in Rosette

Essie Sleek Sticks in Oh My Gold! (new product!)

Anatomicals Spray misty for me facial spritz

Alterna Haircare Bamboo Style Boho Waves Tousled Texture Mist

Coola Organic Suncare Collection Mineral Face SPF 20 Unscented 

Receiving full sized products is always a bonus so I was very happy that 4/6 products this month were full sized!
