A’Marie, 12% Hybrid Solution
(hot) take on the tan: I applied two layers of the solution on myself at night and let develop for around 10 hours before showering in the morning. The result? One of the prettiest tans I’ve had that lasted around eight days. The blend of the olive and violet base combined created the perfect shade of caramel with a smooth, skin-perfecting finish. The tan was about four shades darker than my natural skin color, and gave even, non-streaky coverage (especially considering I sprayed my self). I would recommend this solution to anyone — no matter your skin undertones. The combination of olive and violet cancels out both red and yellow undertones and leaves skin with a beautiful, dark, yet natural-looking tan that lasts long and looks so fresh, even in the coldest, driest winter months.
