Now instead of having to go to the tanning salon to get a spray tan, you can do it in the comfort of your own home!
L’Oreal Sublime Bronze ProPerfect Airbrush
I’ve never gotten a tan-in-a-can before, so using this product was new for me. According to the directions, you are supposed to spray the product continuously at arm’s length, and you don’t need to rub it in. Just spray, wait a few minutes, get dressed, and you are done. The color is supposed to being to develop in less than an hour.
Pros
I’ve used this product every day for a week, and there are a few things I really like about it. It smells better than every other self-tanner I’ve used. It smells exactly like the Sublime Bronze Gelee that I normally use, and it has a nice light pleasant scent. The product dries really quickly, and it doesn’t contain alcohol, so it doesn’t dry my skin out very much. It’s super fast and easy to use, however it’s not possible to reach every place on my body, so I mostly used it on my arms and legs.
Cons
The main problem I had with the Sublime Bronze ProPerfect Airbrush was that it didn’t do much. You are supposed to use it every day until you reach your desired color, and then maintain the results by using it once or twice a week. I really didn’t get that much darker after the week was up. Maybe I just didn’t use enough of the product? The good news is that I had almost no streaking. I did have a streak on my arm, and I think the key is to hold the product as far away from you as possible. If you do end up with any wet patches, just lightly rub them in. If I had used more of the product, I wonder if the results would have been better. But then the chances of streaking or unevenness would have increased.
The verdict
If using an airbrush tanning product intrigues you, then it’s definitely worth trying. Like any self-tanner, practice makes perfect, so once you get the hang of it, your results should get better. Since I have dry skin, after I used this product, I waited a while and then applied a moisturizer over it. Because of my need for a moisturizer, I’m going to stick with my Sublime Bronze Gelee, mixed with a moisturizer. I also feel like I have a bit more control of the product when I’m using a gel/lotion, rather than a spray, since I can tell exactly what areas I’ve covered.

If you’ve flown anywhere in the last few years, then you know that being able to bring all of your favorite beauty products is a big challenge, especially if you don’t check bags! And squeezing all of your necessities into a quart-sized ziplock bag is nearly impossible, plus most products exceed the 2 ounce limit anyway!
As if my list of cosmetic ingredients to avoid to
It seemed like it was winter just last week, but here in Vegas, it’s now already 100 degrees out, which means it’s shorts, tank top, and flip flop weather. As much as I now pride myself on being ghostly white (because I like to think it tells the world I’m smart – well at least about sun protection), I look better with a tan!
In the summer, nothing smells better to me than coconut suntan lotion mixed with the smell of the ocean or pool (yeah I’m weird and like the smell of chlorine). Now that I know more about

I just bought a new makeup remover – Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover, and so far I really like it. I haven’t tried a whole lot of different eye makeup removers, but this is my new favorite. I used to use L’Oreal Eye Makeup Remover, which was fine, but it didn’t remove my eye makeup that easily.
I know it still feels like winter for some of you, but here in Vegas it’s over 100 degrees! Here’s what’s happening this week in the world of beauty:
It seems like every last thing I enjoy ends up being bad for me in some way (ice cream, shopping for stuff I don’t need, spending all day at the beach, frappuccinos, etc.) I just got an email press release stating that some Dermatologists warn lip gloss can be bad for you!?@! This goes with my theory that there’s not a single thing I enjoy that is “healthy” (I also just read an email where Paula Begoun states hot tubs are bad for your skin in the long-term. I go in the hot tub almost every night). Great.
