Fake Bake Sunless Tanning Perfection

April 25, 2012 by Juliann

fakebake.jpgI love to look tan!  Naturally tan, that is.  Gone, however, are the days when I would lay out in the sun on our trampoline soaking up those dangerous UVA rays as well as UVB rays.  You will never find me anywhere near a tanning bed, either.  I am so glad I stayed away from those in my youth, too, because I have no wrinkles to show for it, which is a great thing, but I still do love a glow.

I had tried every self tanning product on the market only to experience huge disappointment, orange streaks and stained hands.  I was never able to blend the color evenly, no matter how hard I tried, until now.

I had the opportunity to sample what I consider to be the greatest sunless tanning product I have ever used!  It is Fake Bake's New Flawless Self-Tanning Liquid with Mitt.

I love this product!  After my shower, I dry off really well (which helps to exfoliate a bit) and then I spray my arms, legs, chest, buttocks, and everywhere else with the spray.  Before it can drip, I use the mitt to massage the solution into my skin.  My tan turns out flawlessly.  There is something about the mitt that effortlessly keeps streaks away.  It also gives you an instant glow, so you can see right away whether you skipped a spot, and it has a tropical scent, which of course helps me imagine myself on a tropical beach.
 
For less committment, Fake Bake has an equally wonderful product that I also use, called Shimmer, which will also leave you with a beautiful, natural and amazing looking tan, but will wash off of your skin in your next shower.  I use Shimmer (which also smells tropical) when I don’t have time to do my entire sunless-tanning routine.  I usually skip my daily moisturizer, and I rub Shimmer onto my face, chest and shoulders for a beautiful glow.  It has no self-tanning ingredients in it, (but you must be certain to use the  gloves provided so that you don't stain your hands.)  I love it!

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.
