Trying to find the darkest self tan

FelinePrincess

Good to hear you are getting on well with siennasol, Glowgirl! Do you think the colour guide is a little darker? I think it might be, which I like cos it's nice to be browner as soon as you put it on!

Still not got the fake bake moisturiser, will try and get it tomorrow!

Yes, but I thought I was imagining it:rotfl:

Hi everyone, just thought I would update, I have been using the Siennasol for at least a week or so, I bought my self some and had the sample they sent me and I think its a better product than the Celeb Secrets, you were right Feline Princess:T. My skin is in good condition, no dryness and no lizard skin, I feel that the product goes on more evenly and I believe the colour guide is darker, the big plus for me is that it doesn't seem to rub off on stuff hardly at all including the sheets, I thought the CS one was good for this but this really is next to nothing and my fav thing about the Siennasol is that it fades evenly, a big plus when you reapply every couple of days, the layering works really well with this product and so far its been delivered much quicker as well.

My daughter used my 16% Siennasol (she is yellow toned) and with one very light layer she has a killer colour, she also said that she found the colour guide washed off more evenly/easier than the CS product so all in all its :beer: to Siennasol.

Hi all, tried Celeb Secrets last night (12% - I have yellow skin).

Very good colour and streak free, except, I'm in work and just noticed that I have some very faint lines across the middles of my shins - I have just realised that this is from my 3/4 lenght PJ'S!!!!

AAARRRRGGGHHHHH, I'm going to have to try to blend away tonight - will it be okay to give them a gentle scrub and re-apply? Please help me!!!

FelinePrincess

Hi all,

Vixy, yes just give it a gentle scrub and re apply and it should be fine!

Good to hear you are getting on well with siennasol Glowgirl! I still haven't tried the fake bake moisturiser but I will get round to going and buying some one of these days! I ordered the suntana booster drops the other day and just need to go and pick them up from the post office, so really hoping they work well then I wont need to order from celeb secrets again.

After posting ages ago and looking at siennasol for weeks on ebay, I have finally taken the plunge and bought some!!! Cant wait to get tanning, sick of looking so fair skined!!

So Ill no longer be a tanning virgin woo hoo!!:T

So excited, how sad eh!:rotfl:

So just to check again, what do people think about applying to face? Just so nervous abount tanning and ending up with a bronze body and lines under neck where I finish tanning and white face!! Should I apply a little and use bronzer as well? Oh just realised that I wont be able to use my lily lolo mineral foundation as will be far too light

Oh forgot to say its the siennasol bronze i bought to test out has anyone tried this?

Hi Kim_35, what % is your siennasol? I don't use it on my face cos my skin isn't great and it seem to emphasize any flaws or imperfections including dryness so be careful, having said that many people who post on here do use it on their face very successfully as does my neighbor and she looks great:)

I used to use lily lolo myself, now I use doublewear light in a slightly darker colour than normal so I match, I did use my lily lolo with a bronzer, I think it was lily lolo south beach and this all blended in very well, I think you might have to experiment and keep some fake tan remover wipes nearby just in case:eek: if you do put the product on your face use much less than on your body and make sure your face is moisturised very well first, if it all goes wrong exfoliate as much as you can and use a light colour foundation on your face (this is what I did when I tried it on my face and hated it) for a couple of days, it does fade very quickly on the face but hopefully you wont have a problem, I'm sure someone who uses the product on their face will give you more advice:) Good luck, tell us how it goes:)

Hi Kim_35,

I use Siennasol on my face but I only use a little bit as I find it takes much better on my face then anywhere else so you don't need very much. I apply it with my mit. If you have dry skin of blemishes they are likely to go much darker so be careful if you do have these.

Once I have left it on for a few hours or overnight I use a facial wipe on my face to remove the colour guide and tidy up any darker patches. It might look a little patchy before you do this but don't worry, facial wipes work wonders!

If it doesn't go well, i will wear off very quickly, I find it has dissappeared completley after 2 days and you can ofcourse cover it up with make up!

Good luck!
