Sublime Bronzer review


A great summer tan is a must and if your not a fan of sitting in the sun or going to a tanning salon, the next best thing to do is a self tanner.
This past week I ventured into something I've never done.. using a self tanner.
I saw L'oreal's Sublime Bronzer and well like any product i has its pros & cons.
I personally would never use it again and only because I am not good with self tanners (lol) I will just go to a Tanning salon.
Ok so a MUST before you use any self tanner is that you have exfoliate!
so try using any scrub, i personally LOVE bath & body works sugar scrub ($16 but they usually have some sort of sale or deal going on.)
so after you shower and exfoliate, spray the self-tanning gel and follow directions.
one more thing please make sure to use gloves then sponge your hands, that was my first mistake I didn't use a gloves and washed my hands like 10mins after applying… My hands seriously looked like I strangled an oomph loompa, not a good look. Below are are the pro's and cons of this product.


Pros
-dries with in 5mins
-its not greasy
- you can see results with in 2hrs
-i used it one day and got a nice color
- even tan
- If used properly the tan looks very natural
-good price
-upkeep is easy (once a week)


Cons
-if you over use it gives you an ompa loompa look (i.e my palms)
-it has a smell
-it leaves a light stain on your clothes after first application (wear dark colors after)

So for $10 this is a good buy and excellent if you are good at doing self- tanning.



Ps the pic is of my legs because since I was just trying it out, I didn't want to do my whole body.
