If you read no further than this, know that the key to the perfect Autumn glow is to GET YOUR SHADE RIGHT.
For that reason, our top tip for autumn tanning is to go down a shade. In the colder seasons our skin tone is often paler than in summer. If you chose a shade too dark you will find your tan does not wear as long. Your paler skin tone can not carry the shade you wore all Summer, the tan fades much quicker and can look uneven after just a few days. You may still like to use a dark lotion for nights out which is fine as long as you are aware that you may only get 3 days wear rather than the usual 5-7 days that comes with a Lusso Tan. The good news is, if you already use our Rapid Tan Mousse, you can easily adjust your shade by rinsing off sooner than would have.
MOISTURE is key for ensuring your skin's protection against the colder weather and dry heat in the upcoming months! Avoid super-hot showers which dry out the skin and can strip away the natural oils that keep it healthy and, of course, don’t forget to moisturise immediately after towelling off to lock in hydration. You think we’re going to plug our Step 1 Primer here, which makes sense as this little spritz will literally change just how beautiful your tan applies to the skin but we’ve got something shiny and new we’re going to shout about instead…. our Moisturising Mist available exclusively in our Christmas Face & Hand Kit.
We’re big fans of the ‘simple sprays’ and this one will enhance hydration, boost skins natural luminosity and act as invisible shield to set make up without it creasing, melting or fading! It’s got all our loves Vitamins A & E, Organic Witch Hazel & Lactic Acid and a Lusso first Hyaluronic Acid – the absolute key to smooth, flawless & hydrated skin. You won’t want to miss this product.
Yay for cosy nights in but as part and parcel of the darker nights come the darker mornings and with the clocks going back next week (Sunday 25th FYI) it’s about to get undeniably more difficult to get out of bed and go. A face tan is your friend here. Waking up looking healthier and more radiant without the need for foundation is an amazing confidence boost and can cut out that fifteen minutes you spend dolling up before you run out the door or at least propel you have way through a ‘no make-up’ make-up look.
We launched our Lusso Tan Golden Glow Face and Hand Mist just as we went into lockdown, when you were all looking for an alternative to make-up, and it’s been our best selling product of 2020.
We love that you still want to look & feel your best, despite spending more time at home and that you’re becoming EVEN MORE savvy as to what ingredients are in the products you use and the effects they have on your skin.
Here are the heroes in Golden Glow:
Vitamin A - helps to speed up healing, prevent breakouts, support the skin's immune system and promotes natural moisturising. It assists in promoting and maintaining a healthy dermis and epidermis; the top two layers of your skin!
Vitamin E - helps support the cell function and skin health. It's an antioxidant, successful at combating the effects of free radicals and great for anti-aging too.
After you've applied Golden Glow Face & Hand Mist to the face, neck and chest, use the Sunless Tanning Mist Brush to blend for the most even tan of your life.
The above is everything you’ll need to go forth and conquer an Autumn Glow (and the confidence that comes with one). Continue to boss through this season like our Lusso ladies do best and continue tagging us @Lussotan in all of your successes so that we can share the love!
