Sun-believable Tan !

Yaay the sun is shining here at last and its time to whip out those legs that have have been hidden away for what seems like an eternity.
Lately i have been going au natural with no fake tan but felt like i wanted a little colour this weekend so decided it would be an ideal time to try out the Sun-believable products that i was sent to try out a while ago.

I received the Try me kit in medium £35 available from Sun-believable which consists of

100ml Scrub me body scrub 100ml Cream me body moisturiser

 100ml Tan me mousse & Sun-believable Mitt

I believe this is a fairly new tan on the market created by the fabulous Leighton Denny in conjunction with the legendary tan king James Harknett and a host of industry experts.
Claims to be a sun kissed golden tone which can last up to 10 days. The name Sun-believable hosts up images of a natural looking tan which is just what i was hoping for.


The scrub itself is lovely to use. Its very grainy and smells absolutely gorgeous. Containing natural walnut shell & Ecuadorian Ivory palm seed and fragranced with a blend of essential oils of sicilian lemon and lime.
As always prep is important for the best results.

The body moisturiser is designed to use after the scrub on any dry areas such as knees, elbows, ankles. Again this smells beautiful and feels so luxurious on the skin. Containing organic coconut oil and vitamin E.


So i exfoliated in the shower and applied a very small amount of the moisturiser on my knees and ankles before starting my tan.

1 pump of mousse

As you can see from the above photo the guide colour is quite dark. It has a very distinct green tinge to it. But it blends really easily in fact its one of the easiest tans Ive applied. It develops in 2-4 hrs.
Using the mitt i spread the tan on in long strokes making sure that i didn't miss anywhere. The guide is great so you can see where you have been.

Results: I can't say how much i love the results. The tan looks so natural, it makes me look healthy but not in a fake tan way. I don't think you can tell I'm wearing tan but i look a lovely colour if that makes sense.

I even applied it on my face and it turned out just a shade darker than my natural skin tone.
If you want to look darker then obviously you can try the Dark but for me medium is perfect. If you are looking for an ultra natural tan that leaves your skin feeling fabulous for summer then this is the one. Highly recommended.
