Summer by Beauty Department is the perfect gradual tan. Great smell, subtle colour and so easy to apply.

The Precision Sponge is my go to when applying my make up… What I love about it is that I use it to press on my foundation so it doesn’t crease and then it lasts all day. It’s a definite must for me.

Huge thanks to Nadine for giving me a tub of her BD bronzing cream. Being something of a tan connoisseur (ok, junkie!) I love the opportunity to test drive new products. Especially one this gorgeous and natural. It smells incredible, has such a luxurious texture and it’s a perfect gradual colour build.

Beauty department’s natural gradual tan is my go to summer tanning product. This product gives the most natural, streak free, golden tan of any tanning product I have used. There is no tell – tale nasty smell that is usually associated with tanning products. It leaves my skin hydrated and glowing!

As someone who lives for the summer sun, I quickly began to notice the negative impact excessive exposure was having on my skin. My makeup bag only has a couple of favourites, but I always carry my Beauty Department tan. It’s super easy to apply & always looks natural and glowy. I really wouldn’t use any other tanning products.

Um ok so this tan is heaven! It doesn’t smell like fake tan, doesn’t go orange and doesn’t leave any suss looking streaks. It’s definitely my go-to. It’s super easy to apply and just feels like you’re wearing moisturiser…except with the added bonus of that ‘perfect summer glow’. Without looking like you’ve overdosed on tahita thursdays or fiji fridays.

What I love about the beauty department precision sponge is the unique hour glass shape that enables me to hold the sponge precisely when doing more detailed work in harder to reach areas.
