GET THE SUN KISSED GLOW

Oh no! I'm high yellow green! (lol) And this awful complexion is bright!  I need sun! But I can't go to the beach looking like this!... so I go for my favorite self tanner 

Josie Maran Argan Self Tanning Cream


I clearly love her line!  It's a mess-free, ultra-lightweight daily cream that delivers the appearance of an even, healthy tan to your FACE and BODY. Formulated with DHA, an ingredient derived from sugar beets and sugar cane, it reacts with your skin's proteins to produce a safe, natural self-tan without dyes or UV rays. Caffeine molecules naturally wake up your skin cells and burn cellulite while toning and tightening the surface.   

Here are some tips to get it right:

  • Do a 24hrs patch test just in case your allergic to some of the ingredients.  It very rare but, some folks might be allergic to DHA.   
  • Wax/Shave hair also at least 24 hours in advance, you don't want to apply a self tanner to red irritated skin
  • Avoid using other products like essential oils and perfumes.  They can effect the desired look 
  • EXFOLIATE!!! Removing dead skin cells will help prevent splotching and uneven coloration 
  • Apply a body lotion to your dry areas like elbows and knees which helps prevent the self tanner from saturating in those areas
  • Wash your hands between applying the tanner to each section of your body (if you don't have tight fitted gloves) so you don't have weird looking palms 
  • And if your tanner is taking too long to dry up! Grab your hair blower to speed things up! 

Enjoy 
Love, light, sun kissed glow & beauty! : )
