Keep that summer glow going for longer with these must-have products from foschini.
Whether it’s a summer holiday tan or a poolside glow, hang on to that holiday feeling a little longer with the help of some tan-extending products. From tan drops that give you a safe and quick golden tan, to a make-up pallet that gets you looking like you’ve just touched down from a trip to Mauritius. Extend that beautiful radiance into autumn, no long-haul flight required.
Highs and Lows
Brighten your complexion with a dusting of Essence Bronze Your Way Bronzing Palette. Using the darker tone, add soft colour and create a 3-D effect by carving out cheekbones. Think about where you would like to look tanned and blend the warm bronzer into these areas of the face. Then take the lighter tone and get that golden-hour glimmer by tracing the high points of the face; think cheekbones, bridge of the nose, and the cupid’s bow.
Untangle
If your hair is looking more bird’s nest than beach babe, it might be time to get some nourishment into those tresses. Shea Moisture 100% Virgin Coconut Oil Leave-In Treatment is enriched with coconut milk and oils, which restores and rehydrates hair, making it more manageable and soft to the touch.
Glow, glow glow
Banish those holiday blues with this multipurpose oil from Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi-purpose Dry Oil. It is the number-one beauty oil in France, and for good reason. Spritz over your face, body and hair to add nourishment. The unique floral scent will transport you in your mind to the French countryside for a stroll on a summer’s day.
Drop of Gold
Small but mighty, all you need is a few drops of these Skinny Tan Moisturiser Face Tanning Drops Price on request (available at skinnytanshop.com) added to your moisturiser, turning it into the customisable tan you are craving. Add three drops for a deep colour change, or for a subtle hint of golden colour, stick to two drops and slowly build up your desired tan from there.
Hydration Hero
If you’ve gone overboard this summer with too much sun and sea and your hair is feeling drier than the Karoo, don’t panic just yet. Invest in a conditioning mask that will replenish dehydrated locks. Try a dollop of Novex Coconut Oil Hair Mask through mid- lengths and ends after shampooing.
Bronzed and Beautiful
Revlon PhotoReady Candid Rose Glow Hydrating and Illuminating Primer gives your skin instant luminosity. Dab on for targeted glow or add a few drops to your moisturiser or base for that lit-from-within look.
Glow on the Go
Black Opal Highlighting Stick, in Sunrise Glow is perfect for a busy lifestyle. Stash it in your bag for when you need a quick pick-me-up for the skin.
Shimmer and Shine
MAC Prep + Prime Fix+ (shimmer) in Goldlite is the fastest way to inject a bit of that holiday feeling into your beauty routine. Simply spray some over your face and body for a pearlescent glow.
