Overview of the L’Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Mist
If you’ve been dreaming of an airbrush-finish tan for your client or yourself, the time has finally come for you to meet the L’Oreal Sublime Bronze self-tanning mist with a 360-degree wide angle jet applicator.
The easy-to-apply applicator of the airbrush self-tanning mist will give you an even, light, or dark smooth, natural-looking tan in two shades:
- Deep natural tan
- Medium natural tan
All you have to do is to mist it on your feet up to your face. Here are other steps to ensure that sunkissed glow:
- Clean and exfoliate
- Apply water-based moisturizer to tricky areas (feet, legs, arms, ankles)
- Apply airbrush self-tanning mists
- Avoid liquid for 6-8 hours
- Moisturize
Specifications:
More than proper application, ingredients make this product fine and adequate. Here are some:
- Vitamin E – This component is responsible for even tanning as it rejuvenates and replaces dead cells.
- Glycerin – This is the one that hydrates & moisturizes skin while using self-tanning bronzers.
- Propylene glycol – This ingredient is suitable for retaining moisture for your skin’s wellness.
Pros
- With airbrush finish for feet, legs, and others
- With a wide-angle jet applicator
- Quick-dry formula mist
- No need to rub & scrub
Cons
- Not user-friendly (if not used to airbrushing)
- It doesn’t have a citrus scent
L’Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Mist Review
It’s always good to know your product from the looks, feel, smell, application, drying time, tanning effect, and price.
Overall Rating: 3.8 out of 5 Stars
Looks, Feel, & Smell
The self-tanner bottle looks expensive because of the airbrush, but the review shows that the nozzle gets easily damaged from shipping.
Moreover, it does have a better feel as it’s not oily. Yet, reviews say it’s sticky when drying but subside over time.
This Sublime Bronze self-tanner claims to have a citrus scent for the smell. However, reviews show the contrary; worse, it may have the weirdest smell among self-tanners!
Application and Directions
If you’re still adjusting, it can be messy to apply. However, it’s easy to use when you get used to the misting mechanism.
Don’t forget these tips, so it applies evenly (and not messy):
- Exfoliate
- Moisturize & dry to avoid streaks
- Apply in circular motions (or straight) from the feet to the upper body
- Wait for 6-8 hours to develop
Drying Time
Consumers share that the product completely dries after 5 minutes, and you can put on clothes instantly.
Yet, one hour waiting time is suggested before going to bed at night.
Also, you must wait 6-8 hours before you shower in your bathroom or hand wash.
Tanning Effect (Natural-looking Tan)
This self-tanner bottle garnered praises for how it delivers an even lovely glow & coverage.
More than that, reviews show that when they use this self-tanner, they have ultra even tan because of its ease of application.
Moreover, you can have a lovely tan for a week, (around 5-7 days) depending on your maintenance.
Yet, your tan may get splotchy and have streaks and orange tones after a week.
Price
For around $10, we can say it’s a pretty good tanner considering that it’s an airbrush self-tanning mist, and you can even choose between medium or dark tan.
The review shows that the price is reasonable for its performance.
