LANCOME SELF TANNING FACE GEL – REVIEW

lancome flash bronzer self tanning face gel review

 

I first discovered Lancome self tanners ( reviewed here ) almost ten years ago and for me they were basically the best high end tanners on the market because at that time there just weren't too many options. Today the offer is far larger and over the years I've been testing so many great tanning products from new brands that is hard to tell which one I love most. Yet, Lancome is a brand I truly like and trust and I still use many of their products.

The Flash Bronzer Self Tanning Face Gel is always my top choice when I want to get that sun kissed look  and I can openly say I haven't found any other face tanner to like more. It's basically the only product that gives me that soft, natural looking colour with just one application, without being too orange or too intense. Plus, it evens out my skin tone so beautifully, it doesn't clog pores and never makes my skin break out.

First up, I love the texture! It is a lightweight, clear gel that glides so easily on the skin and applies with so little effort. The consistency is slightly oily but it doesn’t feel at all greasy on the skin; the finish is a bit wet but it absorbs and dries fast and becomes matte in about 5 minutes so you can apply make up soon after. The colour develops very nicely but a bit slowly. Since it doesn’t have a guide colour it won’t give you an instant shade of bronze but you’ll see a subtle tan within two or three hours and after eight hours you’ll get a light to medium golden tan that looks really gorgeous. If you want a deeper tan, just reapply the next day or every other day until you achieve the right colour but for me one application is usually enough. If I really want to be darker, I prefer to intensify the colour with a bronzing powder. I just think it looks more natural, especially if you have fair skin.

I also love the packaging; it comes in a bottle with a pump which means the product is sealed and does not come in contact with air or bacteria so it has a longer lifespam and the ingredients remain unaltered for a longer period of time.

If you've been looking for a good tanning product for face I definitely recommend Lancome Flash Bronzer Self Tanning Face Gel. It might not be the best one out there, I certainly haven't tried them all, but I've used it for a very time long now and it is without a doubt a lot better than any other face tanners I've had.
