Facial Lotion w/ Self Tanner?

member · Hermes

Have you considered just using a facial bronzing powder? I've been using JNG and I use MAC Bronzing powder on my face. Just a suggestion!

Try using a facial self-tanner. Most brands make special self-tanners and/or bronzers for the face so it should be easy to find one. I currently use Loreal and am happy with it. Because you probably wash your face twice a day or so, it doesn't get splotchy as the salf-tanner sloughs off. I also use JNG, which gives such a subtle color, so I apply the face tanner every other one or two days, and use bronzing powder to highlight.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I think I will try a facial self tanner. Maybe Clarins or Lancome... anyone use them?

I tried a sample of a Clarins one and remember liking it, but I used it at night and didn't care if it had SPF in it.

This one is the latest one from Clarins. I think you put it on with a cotton pad (for some reason that appeals to me). $28

this one has SPF 15 $28 *this is theone I tried! I guess it did have SPF. I remember liking the texture.

Chanel SPF 8 $35

SPF 8 $35
