Baby B Browne, Self Tanning Lotion: Review

My name is Jennifer and I'm a fake tan addict! 

seriously nothing makes me feel happier healthier or skinnier than a bronzed glow on my skin

Every Thursday night I go through my little fake tan ritual 

Although it's a hassle at the time it's worth it in the morning.

Baby B Browne is a new fake tan to me. It was developed in 2011 by an Irish company 

They wanted to make a natural looking fake tan which didn't have that horrible biscuity smell we all know and love...

What they say:

The Baby B. Browne range is designed to react with your individual skin pigment to create a natural looking colour that is specific to you. All products comes with a guide colour for an easy and streak-free application, dry quickly and create an instantly natural looking and long lasting tan. Our self-tanning lotion is infused with vanilla extracts to create a deliciously fresh fragrance whilst our professional spray tan solutions are fragrance free; with Baby B. Browne products the dreaded self-tan smell is eliminated.

What I say:

First of all I like the packaging, clean and simple. 

I also like the fact that the pump swivels and locks rather than having a lid

I have a habit of losing lids and the product ends up all over my drawer so the fact that this locks is great!

I used a mitt to apply the tan and the guide colour helped as it's much easier to prevent streaking.

I left the tan to develop overnight, although the instructions do say that you can wash it off after 4-8 hours.

Now I can't believe I am actually about to say this but Baby B Browne 

DOESN'T SMELL LIKE FAKE TAN!!!

It actually has a pleasant smell! I didn't think it was possible.

This is definitely a major selling point for me because I really do despise the normal fake tan smell.

One thing I will say is it doesn't dry extremely quickly

but I only ever put fake tan on when I'm not thinking about leaving the house

so it's not a big problem, I just had to wait a little while before putting clothes on.

When I showered it off in the morning I was left with a really nice natural colour 

It's not too dark just a natural glow. 

The directions also state that if you want a deeper colour re-apply after 12-24 hours.

I applied the lotion on Thursday, It's now Monday and I'm still really happy with the colour 

So I think one application is enough for me.

Verdict:

I really liked this tan 

I am a big fan of the colour and an even bigger fan of the smell!

I was also completely streak free which is always a bonus 

Baby B Browne is £14.95 for 250ml

and is available HERE
