I’ve been fake tanning for a decade and my top pick is from Primark – it lasts a full week and doesn’t go tiger bread
A FAKE tan connoisseur has revealed that her favourite product “of all time” is one you can pick up in Primark.
Aoife O’Farrell said that she qualifies to recommend tanning products because she’s been testing different formulas for a decade.
She added: “Everyone always asks for my tanning routine.”
It turns out, her go-to fake tan is way cheaper than some of the most popular brands on the market – and you can pick it up in Primark.
Content creator Aoife dubbed the bBold Super Mousse Tan as her “favourite of all time”
She took to TikTok in a now-viral video to share exactly why she loves it so much.
“It smells like strawberries,” she said.
“It’s such a great colour, not orange or green, it looks so natural.
“It dries down nicely, not sticky at all.
“You only need one or two layers to be a glowing goddess.”
However, the main selling point of the fake tan is that it doesn’t leave your skin looking like “tiger bread” when it starts to wash off.
When dead skin cells start to crack and flake off, it can result in a patchy or uneven fake tan that resembles the crust of tiger bread – hence the nickname.
What’s more, Aoife claimed that the fake tan mousse lasts a whole week.
The bBold Super Mousse Tan is available for £9.50 in Primark and comes in the shade range of medium, dark and super dark.
“Achieving a gorgeous tan from the comfort of your own home has just got even easier with the bBold Super Mousse tan,” Primark bosses said.
“The mousse-like texture will help you to achieve an even tan that will leave you feeling radiant all year long.
“It contains innovative ingredients that help to lock in moisture and boosts hydration for up to 72 hours, so you won’t have to worry about it drying out your skin.
“It also comes in three tones, meaning you can pick the one that suits you best for natural looking results.
“We would recommend applying it with one of our self tanning mitts for a streak free finish.”
