Happy Spring!!
I can't believe spring is finally here. Winters are brutal here in Ontario but luckily this year wasn't so bad.
I wanted to start spring off right in white denim and this railroad stripe boyfriend shirt that I am absolutely obsessed with. This shirt is so comfortable, light weight and the fact that it is chambray with a white pin stripe makes it spring and summer appropriate. I have been wearing this shirt tucked in a lot lately but I also like to the look of it loose without it being tucked in to give it a more casual chic look.
When it comes to spring and summer, utility joggers are one of my go to pants that I love to reach for. They are so soft, light weight and it's a great transition pant to bring you into the warmer months. These pants are so versatile and you can easily dress these pants up with some heels and a blouse or dressing them down to a more casual look with some sneakers and/ or sandals.
If you don't already have a pair, you need to invest in these joggers!!
I once did a self tanner review a while back and I thought I would do an updated post on what I currently use and recommend. It is that time of year that when we want to start self tanning and getting our skin ready for spring and summer.
I have tried so many self tanners from sprays, to creams, to mousses and so on. I definitely had ones that I absolutely loved and ones that I absolutely hated and wished I had never used.
This self tanner is definitely one of my favorites due to the fact that it is really easy to use, it is odourless, fast drying, long lasting up to 2-3 weeks and it gives you amazing colour.
I recommend using this mitt to apply the self tanner Buy Here
How to Apply:
Ok, it is so easy I promise!!
1. Make sure you have "clean exfoliated" skin. Exfoliated skin is always key in an even tan.
2. Add two to three pumps of the self tanner to the mitt and apply in circular motions over the areas you want to tan. Using a mitt ensures an even streak-free application and you also save a lot of product when using a mitt as well.
3. Apply to the tops of the hands and feet but make sure you apply it last with whatever is left on the mitt. You don't want to add too much self tanner in these places as you tend to have dryer skin.
4. Make sure you let your skin dry fully before putting on "loose" clothing.
5. Do not shower, bath, go swimming or sweat for at least 6-8 hours after applying.
How to Maintain:
1. Apply two to three times over for the next few days after the first application to achieve the colour you want. You may want to do an application every 24 hours until you are content with the shade you are at.
2. Do not exfoliate until you are ready to do an overal "fresh" application.
3. Keep your skin moisturized and hydrated
4. Do not use harsh soaps and avoid chlorinated pools for longevity
It is formulated without any:

This is another self tanner that I use if I need an instant tan which develops within an hour or two until you reach your desired colour. It is also easy to use, odourless, fast drying, comes with the mitt and a streak-free application.
I apply and maintain it the same way as I would with the Vita Liberata {2-3 week lotion} MINUS applying it a few days over to build up a tan. If you do this with the Vita Liberata Rapid Tan you will look ridiculously tan to the point where you won't look natural at all {unless that is what you are trying to achieve}.
