Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Towelettes

These take a little getting used to so if you're a first time self tanner - I wouldn't recommend these for you. They aren't super dark and give you a bit more of a gold rather than bronze but it's not like that bad self tanner om-pa-loompa orange that you want to avoid. It's kind of a natural glowy kind of golden color. They're build-able so if you want to be darker just use this again the next day. I personally like these because even though in the spring I'm really pale this gives me a quick noticeable boost of color without looking really orange or fake. If you know how to apply self tanners well they're quick and easy to apply. And like you should always do, especially if you are a self tanner: exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate before using. A lot of people blame self tanners for their knees, elbows, wrists, etc being too colored but what causes that is from where you aren't exfoliating good enough and getting dead skin all the way off before applying your tan and the tan is absorbing into that extra dead skin on your body in those places.

I bought the medium shade because that's all that was available. The day after applying I noticed I was splotchy (but I think I'm just bad at putting on self tanners), it would be nice if there would be some colour before the tan would form so you could see where you have already applied. Anyway, it gave me a nice glow though a little orange. It moisturized my skin well.
