Bronze Ambition Glow "N" Go Instant Tan Shimmer + FOTD

Here is another item i won in the Bronze Ambition giveaway.
So far I have been pleased with the self tan mousse but un-impressed with the instant spray tan.



From the photos above you can see that after applying the instant tan there is visible difference to the colour of my skin.
I applied it using a tanning mitt and it blended in well.
The shimmer is VERY subtle, you have to look super close to see it.
The photo above is after one layer and it gives a very light golden colour to the skin. I wouldn't recommend this is you're after something to make you look really dark. It 's just right for during the day when you need to add a bit of colour.
I have used it on the top half of my body, excluding my face. I've found it works well when using it to blend my neck and face (my foundation is too dark for my body at the moment because my fake tan has faded, i am once again pale, booo!)
It says it "rubs on and washes off" and it did just that. I wasn't left with orange hands or patchy areas.
I probably wouldn't buy this product in the future but that's not because i dislike it (i don't) its because i prefer to use Rimmels instant tan as it gives a darker result.

Bronze Ambition Glow "N" Go Instant Tan Shimmer is available here for £1.99

FOTD-

Today I decided to go for a smoky brown look.
Eyes- I used Rimmel 8hr Mousse Eyeshadow in Mocha, along with their black liquid eyeliner.
I lined my waterline with Rimmels kohl eyeliner in black then used Bourjois little round pot eyeshadow in no.1 to highlight. Mascara, my usual Dior in black.
Face- Bourjois healthy mix foundation, GOSH bronzer, VIVO blusher in sugar candy shade 2.
Lips- nothing today except abit of vasleline
Eyebrows- HD brow palette.

Inspired by Frankie

I posted yesterday i was thinking about copying Frankie Sandfords look in this photo-


Well i gave it ago earlier today (minus the fake lashes). I didnt take the photo with a straight on pose, it doesnt suit me (we all have our favourite angles when being photographed dont we? Straight on isnt one of mine!)


Same picture here but i decided to mess around with the effects on my ipad-




It looks darker in real life, dont know why its come out lighter.

Heres what i used-


Face- Bourjois healthy mix foundation
Collection 2000 powder
GOSH bronzer
Mac dainty blush
Eyes- Dior mascara in black
Rimmel liquid eyeliner in black
Dior eye pencil in black
Front cover eyeshadows (left to right) See the stars, frosted almond, twinkling gold, twinkling grape
Eyebrows- HD brows
Lips- Rimmel lasting finish lipstick in pink blush
Barry M lipgloss in Bubblegum pink

I know i am nothing compared to Frankie but she is so beautiful and the picture above is one of my favourites of her. Im abit gutted shes gone back to her original hairstyle, i really love the pixie crop on her.
What do you think?
