Quick Tan Towelettes

Like a mini-vacation all in a little packet. Pretend you're on a tropical island, wipe on the sun with your neatly packaged towelette and come out with a natural bronzed body. They say doing it in the buff is the best way! Get your glow on, with just one towelette, your entire body can look flawlessly tanned without the harrmful effects from the sun. And yes, some bodies (like mine post-pregnancy) take ahem, two towelettes.


TanTowel Plus Self Tanning Towelette, $24.00 10 pack. These wipes have all of the same benefits as the original, TanTowel and contain these added ingredients: DHA- a self-tanning agent, Transcutol CG, a solvant for DHA penetration and Erythrulose, a color accelerator for a faster, deeper and darker natural look.

1-beauty-blog-comodynes.jpgAloha! Forget the messy self tanning creams and sprays! With one swipe of the Comodynes, Self Tanning towelettes, $15 you will see a gradual deepening in approximately two hours. Larger and thicker than most, these remind me of diaper wipes.

Already a well known beauty craze throughout Europe, Bronze-Age the Self Tanning Towels, $15 are luxuriously convenient sunless tanning towelettes. Although I have not tried these myself, many readers swear by the perfect all natural looking, sun-kissed tan in minutes. No mess guaranteed, simply wipe dress and go! Superior sunless tanning has never been easier.

One of the golden rules of self-tanning is to exfoliate thoroughly to remove dead skin cells before application. Failure to do so could result in an uneven tan that fades fast. Whoops, you goofed! If you've been there, done that, I highly recommend Modelco's Tan Remover, $14.00. This concentrated exfoliating formula consists of fine micro-salt particles that dissolve the self-tan when massaged in a circular motion into the skin. A body scrub with benefits, Tan Remover contains the nourishing extracts of vitamin e that moisturises the hands and body, leaving your skin silky smooth and hydrated. And of course, it is colored in sexy ModelCo pink!

Super Quick Fix

Although we love all things girly and can spend hours gushing over stacks of skincare and mountains of makeup, who has the time? I love a quick fix and I’m betting a lot of you out there follow the same hectic schedule. I’ve a two year old toddler in tow, another on the way and a to-do list as long as my left arm. Chronically ten minutes behind schedule, these quick fixes are sure to free up some precious time and get you out the door in five minutes flat...

1-beauty-blog-comodynes-beatyflash.jpg1. I love to entire time-saving Comodynes range, but my favorite is the Beauty Flash Radiant Effect, $13 for 3 count. A shock treatment for improving tone and smoothing features in record time. When applied before make-up, it clears signs of tiredness and provides smooth and bright skin within 1 minute.

2. Fake a perfect complexion with Urban Apothecary, Mineral Sheer Tint, $38. This sheer, lightweight moisturizer contains a protective SPF 20 sunscreen and a hint of color for a natural finish with a healthy glow. Fingertip application is a cinch and the coverage is long lasting, leaving you with a perfect finish every time minus the full morning routine.
3. Urban Apothecary, Mineral Sheer Radiance, $38 is embedded with micro-prisms that refract light away from wrinkles, dark spots and other imperfections, this powder takes your skin from ‘looks like you pulled an all-nighter’ to glowing and well-rested in ten seconds flat. Using a fluffy or Kabuki brush, sweep this compact over your t-zone to go from blah to ahhh!

4. Smashbox, Limitless Lip Stain, $22. A pigmented lip stain on one end and a clear gloss on the other, just apply and forget. The stain gives you flushed lips and stains put all day. Three flattering shades to choose from: 7, raspberry pink, Infinity, cherry red and Non-Stop, a burnished rose that looks great on just about everyone.

5. I’ve honestly tried every mascara under the sun. I really like Kiss Me Mascara, $24. It stays put, doesn’t run and looks great all day--- but be prepared to purchase a new tube every other month. I’ve found the formula starts to ‘tube-off’ alone after regular repeated use. It’s annoying, so I switch back and forth with Longcils, Ultra, $32. The black cream mascara is a volumizing formula for dramatic and glamorous eyes. It’s also water-resistant all day long.
