Review: Vita Tanz Spray On Tan (Organic Spray)

When my good friend and lovely sponsor Because You're Fabulous told me about the new ORGANIC spray tan line she was going to get, I was immediately SOLD!  No more harsh chemicals seeping into my skin.  YIPPEE!  Now tell me, WHO DOESN'T WANT THAT?!?

I received a small sample package in the mail to test out.  The sample package came with the Vita Tanz sample bottle and a puff (to apply the solution).

Application:

Before Vita Tanz Organic Spray Tan

I decided to test the Vita Tanz on my shoulder/arm area.

I didn't use gloves but I do recommend it.  Get a towel to set down in the area you are applying the tan (as it did get a little messy LOL).  I just finished showering/exfoliating/lightly moisturizing my body.  For the best results, I recommend you do the same.  The initial scent was actually surprising.  It smelled GOOD for once as compared to other self-tanners.  A+ in my books!

I tried two approaches to applying the spray tan.

Firstly, I sprayed by sections, which seemed to work best.  You don't want to spray your entire arm, only to be left with streaks.  Not pretty!  Use the puff supplied to make circular motions gently into your skin.

Secondly, I tried spraying the puff.  I found this to be best when applying to my elbow joints (knee joints/ankle joints for those of you who are applying to their legs).  After a few spritz, use the puff supplied to make circular motions gently into your skin.  You do not want to press the solution in too hard, which could ruin your even complexion.

Finish off by once again spraying into sections until the entire area is complete.  I, myself, waited for 5-10 minutes until dry to apply another coat (since I wanted the tan to come in a little darker).  I waited 24 hours (as stated on website) for the colour to fully develop, as well as not showering for 6-8 hours after applying.  

End Result:  

After Vita Tanz (two coats)

I loved the colour.  I felt like I just came from a topical vacation.  I even got compliments at my local gym ("Did you just get back from vacation?" said one woman).

My skin normally has a yellow tone to it.  With the Vita Tanz, I achieved a brownish tone to my skin.  I was very pleased.

After the inital 24 hour wait time, there was a hint of that "tanning smell" (due to change in my PH with my workout aka sweat) but showering will easily take care of that.  The spray tan lasted for about 5-7 days (as I shower regularly after the gym).  

The entire process wasn't grueling.  It was very easy.  It did not take long either.  I do suggest if applying to entire body to get the help of a friend to do your back or those hard to reach places.  

Overall, I am happy with this product.  If you want a spray tan that is healthy for your body, this is your new baby.  I will most certainly be using this product again in the future.

Question:  What self-tanners do you use?  Any good?

"Because You're Fabulous": My 1st Makeup Party

MAKEUP!  

What woman does not like a little makeup here and there?  Not too many I'd guess.  

I had my very first "Because You're Fabulous" Makeup/Skincare party yesterday with a couple of my close girlfriends who too had some issues with some of the products they currently use (made their skin oily, dry, unsafe).  

"Because You're Fabulous" offers natural, organic, cruelty-free, vegan makeup and skin care products from eyeshadow, lipgloss, foundation, cleanser, brushes, moisturizer and everything in between (coming soon HAIR CARE LINE).

Some neat things you should know about the BYF product line:

• If not 100% satisfied with the product, BYF will refund your money back guaranteed (also applies to if not satisfied with colour(s) - return for another product will be accepted
• All BYF brushes are synthetic (natural-feeling) and cannot habour bacteria, which means NO ACNE
• BYF will customize a foundation colour to your exact skin-tone
• FREE SAMPLES - just ask
• No dyes.  No junk.  No extra additives.  Just pure, clean, healthy natural ingredients            

I ADORE this product line.  After only days of use, my skin feels fresh, clean, healthier and wow no more acne.  My skin feels rejuvenated like never before.  The product is so light when applied.  

Janella, the owner of BYF, did some cool before & after makeup run through's with us.  The left image has the left side of Janella's face with mascara with the other side being left alone.  The right image is the finished look (foundation, blush, bronzer, eye shadow, mascara and mineral mist).
