As summer approaches and thoughts of tanned skin and healthy glows start to enter people's mind, I have to remind myself that I will not, and will never have the golden bronze that is so sought after. Many a time I have been referred to as an 'English Rose', now whether that's because I'm pale or it relates to my name is up to you. Instead of turning bronzed and lovely, I get an increased amount of freckles everywhere, in particular on my face and my hair goes blonder (that's the real tell-tale sign of whether I've been in the sun). If I'm completely honest with you I have accepted that I don't tan and I have moved on. I'm just not one of those people that can lie in the sun all day and enjoy it, I need shade.
But there are some days when I would like a bit of a glow to my skin. And for these days I have recently discovered a method to create this. Let me introduce you to the Estée Lauder Daywear Sheet Tint Release, I like to mix this in with whatever base I am wearing that day, in recent weeks it has been my beloved NARS Tinted Moisturiser. It is a grey-ish liquid which once applied to the skin adapts and creates a subtle glow, on it's own it has next to no coverage but mixed gives the perfect coverage to create a healthy glow. Appropriate for those pale skinned girls out there like me. Search no more. The wonder product is here.
This product is quite expensive, but I have had it for a few years now and it is nowhere near to running out. Of course I don't use it everyday but I would say that it is a worthwhile investment.
