Summer time tanning

Now that summer is almost here, which means shorter skirts and shorts and showing of those parts of your body which haven't seen daylight for months!

If your anything like me (as white as snow!) fake tan is a must in summer.

Me and my and my friend who is also a devotee fake tanner have been swapping tanning super finds and horror stories for the past few years. And with both of us starting our summer tanning regime, I thought I'd share some of the really good products out there.

Most Loved
#1 - St Tropez mousse
The St Tropez range is so good! it gives you a super dark tan quickly and easily, because the tan is green based you will never end up looking like you lost a fight with can of paint. I used to use the lotion from this range, where you leave it on overnight and wash off any excess the next day, but of course this lead to my sheets being forever stained a weird brown colour. St Tropez is also quite expensive, but one bottle is usually enough for a summer.

Daiso Chatswood

As some of you may know Daiso is a Japanese 100yen shop (or as it will be in Aus $2.80 shop).
They sell a whole bunch of products from food, stationary to cosmetics.

I am so excited for the opening of their Chatswood store later this month! It should open in the mandarin centre  on the ground floor. It looks a pretty decent size ( not as large as some of the store in Japan) and hopefully carries a good range of products. They already have two stores in Melbourne but i haven't heard much about them yet.

The Daiso brand lashes which come individually with glue, are some of the best quality lashes you can get. Granted their not natural fibres like Dolly Wink, but they are super easy to apply and i actually prefer the Daiso glue to the dolly wink glue.

I have just had so many problems with the dolly wink glue coming off after a few hours, where the Daiso glue stays on all day and all night! They both dry clear but the Daiso one dries a lot faster, which means less chance of the corners coming unstuck.
