10 reasons Why Fake Tan Is An Irish Girl's Best Friend

Your friends let you down from time to time and they don't always make you look your best. Friends don't help get you into bed with that complete ride who sits two rows from the front in economics. Your friends don't make you look thinner. Your friends don't make you look like you live an exotic life, or that you have abs for that matter. If they did all those wondrous things wouldn't they be the best friend you could have?

Well ladies, and gents, such a wondrous thing exists and while it's not actually a real friend, it's better than most of the girls on a good night. It's not expensive and it can be bought almost anywhere. At this stage you most likely have guessed that what we are referring to is Fake Tan.. Here are ten reasons why we all should be hanging out with Fake Tan and not Michelle who you've known since you were 5.. but just be careful not to overdo it as the following epic celebrity tanning fails show..

Reduce your chances of getting skin cancer in the future. The majority of skin cancers can be traced back to sun exposure. Melanoma, an especially aggressive form of skin cancer, can kill you.

Save time.

Applying and maintaining your fake tan should only take a couple of minutes out of your daily beauty routine.

Get the best fake tan. When tanning outdoors, you can forget all about trying to control how your colour comes out. Your skin can end up too light, too dark or too red. Because tanning products come with detailed colour guides, you can be in complete control over how your fake tan develops.

Whiter teeth. Dark colour naturally makes your teeth look whiter because it creates a more dramatic contrast between your skin and your teeth.

Simple maintenance. With the help of moisturisers and tanning accessories, you can double the lifespan of your tan after every application. Use body lotions when you are happy with your skin’s darkness and gradual tanners to replace lost colour after your tan starts to fade.

Get immediate colour. Tanning in the sun takes hours. Tinted spray tans and lotions with built-in bronzers, on the other hand, deliver instant results.

Look thinner.

Fake tans hide imperfections and automatically make you appear slimmer by adding highlights and shadows in all the right places.

Have fun with different products. Experimenting with a variety of self-tanningshades and solutions is the easiest way to learn how to create the best fake tan for your skin type.

Improve your skin. Many luxury tanning products are now formulated with a variety of ingredients that can nourish your skin while your tan develops. Look for formulas with moisturisers, vitamins and antioxidants.

Be tan all year long.

If you are not ready to give up your golden-brown glow once summer is over, you can switch to a lighter tanner for a tan that looks completely natural in any season.
