REVIEW: Tan Atomicals - The Holy Grail for the deathly Pale

Hello everyone

As promised this is my first Tan Atomicals fake tan review. 
 
 

Tan Atomicals - The Holy Grail for the deathly Pale Instant & self tan mousse.   I have to say I love the name...ha ha!
 
Well for starters I am not really pale but I always like a bit of extra added tan.  I hate the thought of looking too pale (for me anyway) or tangerine coloured so I just like to add a bit of colour to my already light olive complexion!  I think this tan would also be ideal for paler skins though as its not ridiculously dark! :)
 
 
 

This mousse retails at £6.99 in Superdrug and various other places.
 
They do put some rather zany and witty slogans on their products!
 
 

This is what the mousse look likes when you first apply it....

 
This is the colour after once application.  It does get slightly darker after a few hours.  It does not go orange..there is no hint of orange, it just goes a lovely dark bronzed colour. Sorry the photo is not too clear but I love the colour.
 
 

Personally I love it and it smells exactly like Pina colada..gorgeous coconut and pineapple and not one hit of fake tan smell.
 
PROS
 
EASY TO APPLY
GIVES INSTANT BRONZED COLOUR WHICH DEVELOPS SLIGHTLY DARKER
SMELLS DIVINE
THE PRICE IS GOOD
 
CONS
 
ermmmm NONE!!!
 
I think its as good as Sienna X which is more than double the price of this and so I will definitely be repurchasing.
My favourite tanning product is still Sally Hanson Airbrush Legs at its literally foolproof but Sally Hansen is more of a product you would use for a special occasion or a night out where as Tan Atomicals Tanning Mousse is more of a longer term everyday tan as the colour lasts a few days.
 
I will do a review of the Tan Atomicals Instant Tan which I also purchased at the same time.
 
Hope you liked this review, let me know if there is anything else you wanted to know about this product.
 
Take care

  2. I'm loving the packaging! Do you find it lasts longer than our beloved St Mortiz? xxx

    1. Well I find it better than St Moriz as I find St Moriz is a bit messy and also I find when I shower a lot of it comes off and does not last on me before going patchy.
      I think it lasts as long in my opinion. x
