Carol's Beauty - faster golden tanning organic lotions review

Carol's Beauty, an Australian based company specialising in certified organic tanning products,  have released Australia's first certified organic and natural faster sun tanning lotions.     
Featuring certified organic and all natural ingredients including carrot seed oil, which is loaded with over 600 antioxidants, vitamins and emollients,  almond, wheat germ and sunflower oil, containing vitamins A, E and D along with henna.

Over the past few weeks I've been using the tanning oil and tanning cream.
I don't tend to do alot of sun-bathing any more, but I do spend fair bit of time at the beach and get a bit of sun when I'm there in the mornings or afternoons.      

I started off by using the tanning oil on my legs, as they were very pale, I thought this would be an interesting test.  Even though Henna does contain a natural SPF,  I applied it together with an organic sunscreen.

I noticed a subtle glow almost instantly, this is because of the henna extract, it gives you an instant colour.  I continued to use the oil over the next few weeks and it didn't take long to develop a nice golden tan.    The oil is easy to apply and melts into my skin easily. I used to love using tanning oils, but stopped using them a long time ago because
there weren't any organic tanning oils on the market.

The tanning cream I tested out first on my arms, applying it before I applied my sunscreen, the effects were very similar to the oil, it depends on what
type of lotion you like to use on your skin.    Although my arms were already tanned before I started using it, it did deepen the tan I already had.
The cream is a nice consistency which also blends into skin easily.

Both cream and oil are very moistursing, keeping skin from drying out in the sun, which is very important if you do like the sun, but want to keep your skin looking smooth and to prevent ageing.     

These products definitely speed up the tanning process in a natural way.   Even if you don't spend time in the sun and didn't want to use them as tanning products, you could use them as moisturisers , as the ingredients, such as carrot seed oil and wheat-germ oil, gives skin a younger and firmer look.

The tanning colour gives a nice golden glow to skin, you won't end up looking orange or with any streaks, as you can sometimes with self-tanners.    

You can purchase these tanning lotions at Carol's Beauty.
