Origins prides itself on using the power of nature to make some of the most cutting edge beauty products around. One of this summer's popular hits was their shimmery self-tanner, entitled The Great Pretender.
This stuff uses an active ingredient derived directly from sugar plants to interact with the protein in your skin to attain the perfect level of tanning for your skin. Such a personalized, non-chemical tanner is kind to your skin and bound to look more natural.
Since Origins uses such natural ingredients, their products are more expensive than the stuff you'd find at your local drugstore. For about $18.50 you get 5 fl. oz. of product, which won't last this pale girl and weekly sunless-tanner user the entire summer.
However, this product smells delicious because its a mix citrus and peppermint, which is so refreshing on the skin. It's non-greasy because the cream is oil-free and the glycerin in the product nurtures your skin for days after use.
Use tips include: exfoliating evenly before use. Applying the lotion as evenly as possible (always avoid knees and elbows) and rub it in fully.
I always apply a bit more in areas that I want to look a bit darker, like calves, shoulders and the decolleté. And never forget to wash your hands because orange palms are a dead giveaway to your beauty secret.
