Tanning Trends for A/W17

With Fashion Month in full swing, we've had a look at some of our fave A/W17 tanning trends for this year.

THE GLOW OUT.  

Loved by designers such as Dior, Christopher Kane and Anya Hindmarch, this trend is timeless and classic. Although summer has ended, we still want our skin to glow this coming season! To nail this look, start with Fake Bake Coconut Serum. This tan will build a luxurious, golden glow and is packed full of carefully handpicked ingredients, including Coconut Oil, Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin and Silk Amino Acids to ensure skin maintains its moisture and prevents the development of wrinkles.

To make skin really POP, use our Skin Smoothie Oil. This dry oil will not only keep that tan looking fresh, it will also give skin that dewy and glowy finish.

To complete the look, use our Scream and Pout Pink Diamond Highlighter to draw attention to the areas that you wish; we would suggest your cheekbones, cupids bow, bridge of the nose and the inner corner of the eyes. To keep this look as refined as possible, finish with a light layer of mascara and use our magical Lip Inflate to plump those lips to perfection.

BARE FACE BEAUTY.

This beauty trend was certainly at home on the A/W 17 catwalk with it being used by a huge host of designers, from J.W. Anderson to Emilia Wickstead, this trend is here to stay.

Get the look by applying Fake Bake Fair. This tan was developed for those with a fairer complexion or for the guys and gals that simply want that subtle glow. Fair is a gradual tan, so you can build that colour up to your desired shade. Use our face tan, The Face to give yourself a fabulous, subtle face tan. This product has clinical levels of Matrixyl-3000 to benefit you skin and help combat those dreaded signs of ageing and is jam packed full of skin-loving botanicals to leave skin silky smooth. 

Finally, to finish this fresh faced look, apply our Legal Sunburn Blush to the apples of the cheeks for an understated rosy tint.

BRONZED BARBIE

Probably our favourite beauty trend (for obvious reasons) is the Bronzed Barbie trend. This look is described by Elle mag as ‘modern, bronzed, goddess, Barbie’ and incorporates a tan with a Flawless finish and a warm glow on the skin. Used by designers such as Public School and Jason Wu, this trend is perfect for those guys and gals that swear by a year round tan.

To execute this look, we would recommend starting with our amazing Flawless tan, this is a liquid tan that is as easy as spritz and glow! This tan also comes in a darker shade (Flawless Darker) for those who dare to go darker. Then accentuate that face by using our compact Bronzer to sculpt your cheeks and jawline to really fulfill the Bronzed Barbie look. For eyes we would recommend a golden, bronze smoky eye and stick with a nude gloss for lips, like our Shine On Glo Gloss.
