Self Tan

When it comes to self tanners there are so many to choose from on the market. Where do you start? I've always turned to St Tropez when my mind was wondering else where. I always approach self tanners from a cautious angle, you never know what kind of streaks you may end up with. That's why I am a big fan of tinted self tanners that provide a guide color.

There are many types of self tanners out there; gradual, instant, airbrush...the list goes on. Dry skin normally works better with liquid formulas and oily skin can benefit from a fast drying formula. It's always a good idea to purchase a tanning mitt to avoid those 'giveaway orange hands'!

Fashion designer Valentino is going to be the star of a new documentary which will soon be released;Valentino:The Last Emperor. He is shown in both a personal and professional light. There are clips of him at home, in the design room, with the models, and recognition for his groundbreaking designs. It is a tribute to his contribution to the fashion world and illuminates his style with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, his famous signature red gowns, and his perpetual Italian flair and sun tan. Valentino felt it was important to make a woman look beautiful.
