I Have A Love-Hate Relationship With Fake Tan, But This Product Changed My Life  — Now It’s Under £10

It's also Zara McDermott's go-to hack for glowing skin.

St Tropez mist

In no particular order, three things that make me look just that teeny bit more put together: getting enough sleep, bothering to use my Dyson Airwrap and using an excellent face tanner. I have tried many face fake tans in my life, from luxe drops to glow-infused sleep masks, but the one formula I'm forever faithful to is the St Tropez Self-Tan Purity Bronzing Water Face Mist, £9.56. Why? Because it is faultless_._

The ultra-lightweight spritz delivers a naturally sunkissed finish that looks as though you've just been galavanting around the Mediterranean. It's a clean formula carefully packed with non-comedogenic ingredients - meaning it won't block your pores - and it actually smells nice_._ The clincher for me is how easy it is to apply. Simply spritz around five to six pumps under or over makeup for a flawless tan in under 12 hours. Personally, I like to spray mine over my evening serums but before my thick moisturiser in a genius technique, I'm dubbing the 'glow sandwich'.

As well as the perfect tan hue, I find that the tan looks extra brilliant thanks to all the skin-loving goodness in the mist which includes green mandarin water, hyaluronic acid (hence, the glow) and tropical hibiscus flower extract.

As well as me being a devout fan of the fake tan face mist, Zara McDermott has shared with her two million Instagram fans how it's the secret sauce to her mega-watt complexion.

During a Q&A on Instagram Stories, McDermott replied, 'I use the St Tropez Tanning Mist every three nights or so on my face and leave it overnight. I did it last night! I then used some eye cream, moisturiser and Elemis Facial Oil, £35 on top!'

For Black Friday, the tan is now under £10 saving you a generous 59% off the RRP. They're practically giving it away. Shop it, here.
