Things I've been loving lately: Cocoa Brown Night & Day Tan Mousse

Right. *Rolls up sleeves*.  Another one I've been ages getting to!

So I know lots of us are embracing the pale - but lots of us like an aul shot of tan every now and then.  If you like to look really tanned on a night out and rock a more subtle colour during the day, then this might be the tan for you.

So how does it work then? Well apply it in the evening before you go out and you'll be very tanned - the colour is twice as dark as Cocoa Brown One Hour Tan.  When you have your shower the next morning you'll wash off some of it - but leave enough to keep a golden glow for a few days.  So the tan is darkest at night (or whenever it's first applied) and then beds down into a paler colour after showering.

It's super easy to apply because it's got a guide colour and squooshes beigely out of the nozzle - so you can actually see if you've missed any bits.

Cruicually it doesn't stink! (Remember the time the smell of fake tan woke a man from a coma?) It smells nice and fresh and it doesn't go orange like most fake tans.

I found the trick with this tan was to apply lots of moisturiser before application and make sure your skin is well exfoliated, because the mousse itself isn't  hydrating at all.  The initial colour was too dark for me, but I know lots of you like a very tanned look - if you do this might be the tan for you.

Have you been using this - and what do you make of it? (And if you're looking for your perfect summer kissed glow bestower read our tanning section for TONS more reviews).
