Hello everyone! Today's blog post is all about the sun-kissed skin goal of the year! I'm so pale that sometimes I feel like a vampire! I'm not insecure about my skin tone, but I love the sun-kissed effect on me. The issue is that I live in Milan, with minimal access to the sun, and I get burned so quickly. I need like three months of uninterrupted sun exposure to achieve that tan, and I'm not in the position to stay that long in the sun. Luckily there is THE brand of tanners that I've been looking for quite a long that will help me and my pale skin to look more alive all year long. 

I'm talking about Tan Luxe. 

What I'm looking for with tanners

I tried a lot of self-tanners during my adult life, and I ended up making a list of my needs. So let's go through it together!

• It has to be easy to apply and blend

• It has to have a fluid texture

• It has to leave my skin fresh and not sweaty

• It has to not transfer on clothes and bedsheets

• It has to have a natural tan color, not orange, not fake.

• It has to be budget-friendly but of excellent quality.

What I found

After many tests and research, I fell in love with Tan Luxe products. I haven't bought them yet, but they are in my cart, waiting for the perfect budget time to purchase. I love that the tan develops gradually, and you can choose how intense you want it. Also, if you're picky with skincare like me, you can buy the drops to mix with your face and body lotions. Finally, if you want a multi-purpose product, you can directly buy the Tan Luxe lotion that does all the work for you. 

I read so many excellent reviews about these products. The branding is impeccable, and I'm fully committed to trying them out. If you want a full review, let me know in the comments below! 

What's in my cart

Among all the fantastic Tan Luxe products, I'd pick The Face drops to mix with my cream and The Gradual for the body. I think it's the perfect combination because I can stay consistent with my ideal face cream and hydrate my body with only a product. But it's not all! For example, I struggle when applying the body lotion because I can't reach my back. So, I'd add to my cart a third product: the perfect mitt to smooth the tanners and reach every corner of my body. I found this excellent product on Amazon, which is super affordable and has so many great reviews. (affiliated links)
