Everybody loves the sunshine
It was Sun Awareness Week last week, but more importantly, the entire month of May is dedicated to Skin Cancer Awareness across the globe. Read on to see the surest - and safest - ways for your clients to stay bronzed, without the risk of dun damage.
Prevent
As the age-old saying goes, prevention is better than cure, and in most cases it's always better to have a proactive approach, rather than a reactive one. When it comes to day-to-day sun protection we love HOT Retinol Day Cream with SPF20; the SPF protects the skin while Vitamin A smooths the surface of the skin.
Of course, there are few better ways to protect the skin from the sun's harmful rays than a good old-fashioned self-tanner! For an instant glow try Crazy Angel Bronze Desire Instant Airbrush Self-Tan; within two hours you'll see a flawless, natural-looking tan.
Maintain
To keep colour lasting longer in-between trips to the salon, encourage your clients to try Sienna X 1 Hour Self Tan Tinted Mousse - it's infused with antioxidants such as Pomegranate and Vitamin E, so skin stays soft while they tan. Vegan-friendly, this is this perfect top-up tan.
Enhance
Sienna X Skin Finish Illuminating Mist ticks so many boxes as a retail tanning product! Not only does it hydrate the skin, it also contains a light-reflecting pigment, giving the illusion of a healthy, glowing tan. And what better way to show off that tan than by wearing neon nails? OPI, NSI and The Manicure Company have some amazing shades of coral and pink that will complement every skin tone.
