Ladies - All I wanted to do right, is to purchase some self-tan for the face. Not long since I got paid, so decided to opt for Clairins rather than Aldi Basics...
Advertisers are getting a tad OTT aren't they, when they describe it as "... with unasponifiables of cocoa". What the hell?!! I had to google it - didn't want to end up putting Amazonian sperm on my face or anything. All it means is oils, fats, waxes etc that convert into soap. Perrleeese...
I think I shall stick with Cuprinol - "...does what it says on the tin".

Stricly speaking, this probably should have gone in 'beauty' - but my question was more about the ridiculousness, scientificness & OTT'ness of advertising these days, rather than comments on self-tan products.

(My NHS ID card btw, as a complete aside, has me looking as though I have a very bad case of yellow jaudice - I was experimenting with St Tropez at the time & think I overdid it....)
I find ronseal quite effective - waterproof too...
Not so much a case of jaundice as a case of bananas !!!

Fyfees?!
I ought to go back to Jamaica then - lots of bananas, and no need for self-tan!
Salla, don't you find Cuprinol a bit harsh for the face ???
Question Author
Applied with the softest of brushes debs...!
Although it does sting a bit as it's drying.
Is it anygood for wrinkle removal (disguise) ?
If so, I'll get some !!
No Debs you need Pollifilla for wrinkles.
Yeah, that's what I've been using Naomi, but I find it a bit pale for my complexion !!
Doh ! you have to mix it to correct colour with boot polish or for a rosy glow cardinal tile polish is good.
