It is no secret that tanning in the sun or on a sun bed is seriously bad for you, not only does it cause wrinkles and age spots but it can lead to skin cancer – bleuch, not for me thank you!!

Whilst the pale and interesting look is becoming more and more popular thanks to celebrities like Dita Von Teese, Anne Hathaway and Nicole Kidman, I still love how much perkier I look with a bit of colour. Tans hide a multitude of sins; it is an instant fix for scars, cellulite and blemishes. It is my ultimate confidence booster and I rarely have a night out without a layer of toffee colour.

I love the sound of Body Drench Whipped Chocolate Self-Tanning Mousse. It develops quickly and has a yummy cocoa scent, but best of all it gives a great bronzed shade – no satsuma hues here. Application is relatively easy too as you can see where you apply the product thanks to the coloured tint; leaving you with a streak free, natural tan.

One tip though – wear gloves or wash your hands frequently whilst applying, as the product dries so quickly the colour can build up on hands before you get to wash up after application.
