Now that spring has officially sprung, you might be looking to give your winter skin a bit of a glow-up. With so many gradual and fake tanners on the market, it can be tricky to know which ones are worth splashing out on and which formula will suit your skin best. Undeniably, St Tropez is one of the top players in the game, and its Self Tan Express Mousse has been massively reduced by a whopping 61% in Amazon’s early spring sale, bringing the price down from £33 to just £12.89. This tan is ideal for those last-minute events or days when you need a quick bronzing fix, as it’s an instant mousse. The length of time you leave it on determines how dark your tan will be. For a light glow, leave it on for one hour; for a medium tan, two hours; and for a deep tan, three hours. The tan also claims to have no typical fake tan odour, but instead a mood-lifting fragrance that will linger all week long. In addition to the tan, the Express Tan Bundle (which includes the tanner and a St Tropez mitt) has also been slashed by 55%, reducing the price from £39 to a mere £17.39, reports the Mirror.

This instant tanner has clearly won over the hearts of many, boasting an impressive 14,000 ratings and an average of 4.4 stars. What shoppers love most about this product is its ability to deliver a natural-looking, streak-free glow. One reviewer raved: “I’ve been using St. Tropez fake tan for a while now, and I’m absolutely in love with it! The most important thing for me when it comes to self-tanning is the colour, and St. Tropez delivers every time. The tan looks incredibly natural – not orange or streaky – and gives a beautiful sun-kissed glow.” Another reviewer praised its quick-drying properties, saying: “What’s great about this self-tan is that you don’t have to go to bed sticky-you only leave it on for up to three hours, then wash it off, and it still develops into the most lovely natural-looking tan. It doesn’t have an awful smell, either. I always find it cheapest to buy on Amazon!”. However, some users have reported issues with the pump, with one reviewer stating: “This is second time I have purchased product where pump stops dispensing as a mousse and dispenses as a runny liquid which significantly affects the application and the result.” If you’re looking for an alternative instant tan in a lotion formula instead of a mousse, you might want to consider Sabrina Carpenter’s go-to fake tan (the Loving Tan Instant Luminous Cream), which we tested and were super impressed with the glowy results.
