Product Information

For bridal I would always say 48 hours before to give the colour time to settle into a lovely glow and to give yourself time to have at least two showers before the event and apply a refreshing body cream. Sometimes I recommend working our tan up to your hands and then using a water tan mist to even it out, then blend with a tan mitt. Whether you’re a novice or consider yourself intermediate, one can always improve, so British Vogue asked three stellar tanning experts to reveal their tricks of the trade for home tanning.

Not necessarily a tan (the high factor SPF that we should all be wearing doesn’t really permit that) but a radiant glow.

You can also use a cotton pad to rub a lip balm into the hair line and over your eyebrows to stop discolouration (if you are prone to it) then apply the tan. I thought it was a developing tan and is something that would last but it doesn’t, which I was annoyed at myself at first.The Amanda Harrington Face Mist is lightweight, simple to blend and available in different shades to suit most skin types.

Rather than apply the tan with a mitt, you blend it in with the large, fluffy Kabuki brush; I am pretty sure this is why the tan is so fool-proof.

I don't have gloves right now and am in self-isolation, so I applied the tan using the brush and it worked really well. If you are new to self-tanning, start with a gradual tan or tanning drops [that can be mixed into an oil-free moisturiser] so you can build your tan to a desired glow rather than going for a tan with a higher DHA level,” says James Read.The Rose shade has been designed for people with fair skin, Honey is more suitable for those with warm medium skin and Olive is ideal for darker skin tones.

The formula of the mist gives a subtle but instant bronze which continues to develop gently throughout the day and the hyaluronic acid gives a boost of moisture too. Because my skin doesn't get parched easily, the tanning agents (which can often be dehydrating) don't seem to have too much of a drying effect. The mist works best when sprayed onto the brush and applied like a bronzer, rather than spraying it directly onto the skin.
