The self tan that Victoria Beckham relies on for a sun-kissed glow
Although the beauty mogul stated that she ditched her recognisable bronzed glow of the early 2000s, Victoria Beckham has always adorned an unfaltering healthy tan that has left us wondering the exact product behind it all.
RRP: £22 for 100ml
Victoria Beckham's favourite self tan can unlock an enviable, natural bronzed glow in as little as three hours. Boasting a 100% natural, clean and toxin free formula, this hydrating cream is equipped with DHA-derived from natural sugar beets, alongside a nourishing blend of shea butter, coconut oil and sesame oil. This buy works to leave your skin supple, smooth and hydrated with an effortless glow, while also imparting a moreish juicy apricot scent.
After stating that she had retired her iconic self tan back in an interview with HELLO! back in 2013: "I don't wear fake tan anymore. Being overly tanned is very ageing and, dare I say it, a bit footballer's wife,"
However, Beckham made a full U-turn on her fake tan stance six years later.
Posting to her Instagram stories in 2019, Victoria revealed the product that changed her opinion on self tans: "[I'm] really liking this @theorganicpharmacy self tan for my body, not to be used on your face ladies.”
The kind-to-skin tanning cream in question boasts a 100% natural formula that allows for an easy, streak-free application, even on the most sensitive skin types, resulting in an enviable healthy glow – a strong contender for the best fake tan for mature skin.
How to apply The Organic Pharmacy Self Tan
For self tanning novices wondering how to apply fake tan, much like any other tanning product, it is crucial that you exfoliate the skin and moisturise with one of the best-smelling body creams before you apply the product. Opt for a plush tanning mitt, such as Bondi Sands Self-Tanning Mitt, to apply the self tan onto the face, neck and body for a even and streak-free finish. To maintain your glow, the brand recommends reapplying the self tan every two days.
