Revlon 3 Barrel Waver

This waver is awesome! I bought this at target for around $22. The waver gives you really cool waves and intense volume! Its also a nice switch up from a regular curling iron becuase these curls come out way different, almost more beachy/crimpy.

*I reccomend this if you are looking to switch up your look or are tired of regular curls :)

Faux Tan- Bare Escentuals


I always wanted to try this product and luckily my grandmother recently bought this so i decided to try it out! I was quite impressed with this product! It was very easy to apply (i used the mit) and the scent was quite tolerable compared to St.Tropez. The color comes out a nice golden color, not orange at all. I also liked that the bottle it comes in is HUGE and it says that it wont clog your pores.

Pros:

-Easy to apply
-Nice golden color
-Huge bottle of product
-Dries fast
-Wont clog your pores

Cons:
-there is a slight scent

*This product does come with a Kabuki brush but i haven't tried it yet.

I definitely recommend this, i switch between this and St.Tropez but i think i might actually like this better!

St. Tropez Mousse



I recently just got St. Tropez as a gift. I was so excited to try this because i have always heard how amazing it is and how it never streaks and has no scent. When i applied this product i used my hands and applied on clean/exfoliated/shaved skin, as i worked it, i worked very fast because it dries almost instantly. As soon as i was done with my body i noticed how streaky it was! i was very upset. AND it did have a scent after it was fully dried! I even tried apply with gloves but that just made it worse.

SO i went out and bought a tanning mit at Ulta and used that to apply the product. This helped tremendously! I was able to really buff the product in with the mit.

Pros:

- Dries quickly
- Nice golden color
- Lasts a nice amount of time

Cons:
-Has a scent when it if dried
-Tricky to figure out how to apply

I do still use this product now that i have found a way to apply it nicely but i apply it at night now and then shower in the morning and the scent gets washed away and i'm left with a nice natural tan!
