Easy to put on, wasn’t greasy, but also my skin didn’t feel any smoother, again I think this is down to oil and washing constantly all week. So it goes without saying, that when I get a real tan, I want to make it last as long as humanly possible before the winter pale sets in. I was browner before I arrived, at the end of the week my tan appeared patchy like fake tan and had faded. I was going on holiday to Turkey in July so thought I’d bring this with me and build up more of a tan there.

This product can be used at any time including after sun exposure, for maximum benefit use at least once daily. I used it once a day for 3 days leading up to my hols and as an after sun each day, after sun bathing. I usually burn the first couple of days of exposure to the sun and then start peeling straight away!I have read mixed reviews about Miracle Tan but IMO it is worth a try and for me a Turkish Bath is also a must. It can penetrate the skin and get absorbed into bloodstream faster than other popular filters available in the US. Organic, or "chemical" filters usually provide reliable sun protection and rarely leave a white cast. I was in Home Bargains at the weekend and they had both the sunscreen including Miracle Tan and on its own.

This sparkling fragrance is a unique blend of lady apples and water lilies, with a hint of apricot and mandarin meringue. Made from a special type of glutinous rice cake sheet, this mask is perfect for everyday use and easy to apply. It is quite stable and can help stabilize other, more vulnerable, sunscreen ingredients like Avobenzone. be careful in the sun folks, i had a mole checked , which ive had for years, it was melanoma, and im off sick for 3 weeks after having a big chunk of my leg cut out , always loved my time on icmeler beach, it will be sunblock next year!Another good one is the Calypso Once a Day, also home bargains, I've used that for the past couple of years, and being a natural red head with fair skin, I can honestly say it works. This year I am only using the standard cream from about 3 weeks before going away as a daily moisturiser. They mention that it feels lovely on skin, does not feel clammy and that it helps the tanning process. I've used it and I'm pale and freckly, I found it definitely gave me a nice glow and I've bought it for this year's holiday, I'd recommend even for the fact it has a lovely texture and my skin felt amazing after using it.
