What We Think:
The L’Oreal Paris® Sublime Bronze Self Tanning Facial Drops provide an innovative self-tanning solution for the face. Formulated specifically for facial use, these ultra-moisturizing drops hydrate, tone and brighten skin as they create a natural sun-kissed tan.
They offer lightweight, oil-free color that hydrates intensely and absorbs instantly for a refreshing sensation. The tan develops slowly and evenly over time for color that looks vibrant and fresh, never dull or muddy.
Containing hydrating ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Coconut Extract, the drops keep skin supple and soft as the tan builds over 4-6 hours.
With no dyes, fragrances or grease, the drops give skin a subtle, sun-warmed glow while allowing your natural tone to shine through. They are fragrance-free, non-greasy and safe for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.
The tan appears glowy and natural, never cakey, orange or streaky. Buildable color provides a tan that lasts up to 5 days with subtle highlights. We love how the natural, hydrating and evenly-applied results are, the tan looks extremely natural with “no orange undertone”. Sometimes the buildup can be hard to see but end results seem very natural and sun-kissed. Keep in mind that some minor pilling may occur for some with makeup but overall, we are thoroughly impressed by the ultra-hydration, color buildup and flattering glow.
For a facial self-tanner that hydrates, moisturizes and enhances your tone with an effortless sun-kissed look, the L’Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze Self Tanning Facial Drops could be worth trying, especially at this price point. They deliver a natural-looking tan, build color gradually for seamless results and keep skin hydrated while giving you a gorgeous glow.
