Review of 4 Clean Ingredient, Fake Tanning Products

In my humble opinion, this couldn’t come at a better time.  Organic fake tanning.  In July.  How have I not already had my name & number all over this subject??

I mentioned on Tuesday & have been hinting at it a lot recently, I’m moving to clean products for my body & home.  Once you know, it’s hard to unknow.  Feel me?  If you’re wondering what the products you use are rated, start with the Think Dirty App.  (HERE).  When I first downloaded it I wanted to ignore the results, but yesterday opened the app & scanned every product in Ulta.  I only bought the ones rated 1-3.  Wasn’t nearly as intimidating as I was projecting.

If you’re curious, download the app & start checking.  I think the biggest bit of advice, don’t get scared or overwhelmed.  When I started scanning I immediately thought “this is bullshit, nothing everyone uses is considered good”.  But slowly you’ll find products that are “good” & slowly you can change out what you have.  I’ll help make the introduction. 🙂

Today, I’m reviewing fake tanning products.  The tanning products I was using were big question marks.  Good or bad?  Was I putting sketchy chemicals on my body everyday or sweet baby green aloe plant?  I use tanning products often, all over my body so it freaked me out!  I had a meltdown, sad to consider never being tan again.  THEN, I went on the hunt.  I’m SO happy to be sharing these products now, the clean ones.  I feel better about suggesting you buy something when I know it’s something that isn’t going to hurt you.  Because I love you.

Review – 4 Clean Beauty Fake Tanning Products

Vita Liberata pHenominal Tinted Tan Mousse:  I had sky high hopes w this tanner because I love the face mask so much.  This is also a brand that surprise attacked me when I found out it was organic skin care w good ingredients.  Unfortunately, I was incredibly let down w the results.  The product applies well like any other tanning mousse you would use, but once I showered, it felt like it ALL showered off.  I don’t know if it left any tan, and if it did, not longer than a day.  I highly doubt I’ll be using this again, unless I have nothing else & want to give it a second chance.  Big NO.

Vita Liberata Self-Tanning Night Moisture Mask:  I’m obsessed with this face mask & was in complete shock when I realized it had organic ingredients that weren’t poisoning me!  Woo hoo!  Those are the type of surprises I get hyper about.  There’s not a significant tan pay off from the face mask, just slightly looking a little darker, HOWEVER it offered my face an incredible amount of moisture that I couldn’t ignore when I woke up in the morning.  Moisture, a slight tan, & yummy ingredients?  I’ll take it.  Happily. Gimmie all plz.

Nkd Skn Tinted Tan Mousse:  Well look at this fancy ass brand.  I actually found this brand through the Think Dirty App Self Tanner ratings.  Each NKD SKN product came out at a whopping ZERO.  (ps. that’s the best).  When I was first applying, I was a littler nervous as it appeared more orange than the tanning mousse I was used to – but stick a foot in my mouth because this mousse works surprisingly well!  I showered it off after a few hours & the mousse left my skin w a pretty sun kissed tan that lasted for a week!  I almost cried.  Don’t think I’m kidding.  I’m still dying of joy,  I was able to find a product to replace my other tanning mousse?!  That is the one thing I wouldn’t want to give up.  The best part?  It’s $20!! You guys!! $20!!  No tanning mousse is $20, especially one that WORKS & has CLEAN ingredients?  Consider me sold sold sold.  (I would pay $100, but don’t tell them that.)

Nkd Skn Body-Bling Instant Shimmer Body Bronzer:  So obviously I quickly jumped on board w the other bronzing NKD SKN products.   This instant bronze is something you can rub on your legs for a night out or your shoulders on date night – for that extra glowing coverage.  A tan works as a coverage for me.  Slightly blends my freckles or imperfections into one smooth canvas.   I like applying the Instant Bronze whenever I’m wearing an open back dress or shirt, I feel like my back needs the assistance.  I also use it on my feet when I’m wearing heels!  Sounds weird, but try it.  A little goes a long way w this product in particular, I can’t imagine ever needing to buy another bottle.  This instant bronze adds the perfect amount of subtle tan to your skin & a barely-see-it shimmer.  I love it.


And there you have it!  Finish up summer keeping a good {fake} tan!!  Now’s the time to do it!  I truly can’t explain the joy I have finding replacement products for my regular favorites.  Swapping the dirty w the clean.  I swear it can be done!  Finding a tanning mousse felt like a hill I was never going to climb, but here I am at the top!  That means there’s no excuse for dirty ingredients anymore, & as soon as we stop buying them – the companies will stop making them 🙂

That’s it for now! I have a busy weekend ahead of me, my friend is getting married! I’m all about a loving celebration & I’m confident this will be an example of one.

See you on Instagram!

Love you,

be thoughtful
