Enhance Your Tan When wearing a strapless shirt or dress on a sexy night out, add a touch of shimmer to your collarbone and shoulders to make your newly developed tan really glow. Try Pacifica Coconut Crushed Pearl Bronzing Butter, $18.

For an all over glow, apply a skin illuminator like Topshop All Over Glow Liquid Illuminator, $20, to cheekbones, décolletage, arms and shins for a luminous glow.

I have tried almost every self tanning product that is the stores. No matter product I used I 'never' got a great looking tan. ILook at their ingredients in all of those products, they all have tons of chemicals, parabens, odor and other ingredients that are actually bad for your skin. All of those products that I tried either produced an orange mess, streaked, blotchy, stinky or just looked horrible tan, if that is what you all it. But I finally found the perfect tan. SunFx. I ended up purchasing the SunFX system because it produced such a beautiful caribbean chocolate color tan and is 100% natural tanning solutions - NO chemcials. I wanted others to share in my find so I set up a mobile spray tanning service. The tanning solutions from SunFx are 100% all natural: No Alcohol, No Preservatives, No Paraben, No Perfumes, No odors. They use only the purest form of DHA. I know salons who use this system charge up to $60 a session but I only charge $20, I just want to share my great find. One spray session gives you a beautiful, even, gorgeous natural looking tan that lasts up to 7 days each spray. This line also carries a self-tanner lotion that is just wonderful and a great way to get a natural looking tan if you don't have a SunFx service near you. You can order from me or go to the SunFx website. I don't charge as much as they do. Using the SunFx products does not cost any more than what you are going to pay in the store for inferrior products that contain chemcals, parabens, oils, alcohol and perfumes to cover up the chemical smell. And you will be getting a 100% better looking self-tan with SunFX. If you have any questions see SunFx website or email me at sunglowtan@yah**.com. It wouldn't let me print out the full email address but you can guess what the rest of it is. Have a wonderful day. SunFX is the perfect tan. I give SunFX a 5 star review *****.
