Summer days are drawing in (finally) and when the sun surprises us with warmer weather, it’s normal to feel unprepared in the tan department for a spontaneous boozy brunch, or a picnic with pals.
The wonder of instant tan is a game-changer in the beauty world, as it allows us to cheat the look of a flying visit to the Bahamas - without the dreaded jetlag or sunburn.
But what if you didnt have time to do your full tanning routine the night before? Should you really forego your favourite pair of shorts or strappy top for fear of feeling like Casper the Friendly Ghost? Or worse, rush your instant tan and end up feeling like a biscuit-ty mess?
Luckily for us, TikTok has once again come to save us from our disorganised selves.
@xanthehaden took to TikTok to show us the staple product she uses to get the look of a natural tan in a flash - perfect for us lazy girls who are looking for a quick tanning fix.
The product in question? Sally Hansens Airbrush Legs Dont be put off by the name, this product can be used all over the body for an airbrushed look.
Ive already gone through three bottles. She explained, telling her followers how the product dried in seconds and felt bone dry.
This allows you to get changed straight away without any worry that it will smudge onto your clothing. Um, genius.
