Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel Review

Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel

Clarins Self Tanning is a gel, so it goes on clear. Pay attention to what you’re doing because you won’t be able to see where you missed till later. It’s kind of sticky at first, but that goes away.

Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel smells, but that goes away pretty quickly too.clarins-self-tanning-instant-gel

I’m have really fair skin, so I was really surprised at how tan this made me. Very tan – for about three days and then it started to turn orangish and fade away. (mostly from showering, swimming, shaving, etc.) But for the days I wanted it for a particular dress,Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel worked great

I didn’t wash one of my hands good enough, so had a bit of orange in the web part of left hand, but nothing to crazy noticable. I have lots of freckles and this didn’t make them too dark and glaring, just slightly darker.

And it’s expensive, but since it works so much better than other tanner’s I’ve tried it’s worth it to me.

Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel took about three hours before I noticed I was turning darker, and then by the evening it was perfect (for me at least). My friends are all trying it out now – I’ll update if anyone feels differently than me.
