The £6.25 'streak free' self tan that makes it 'look like you've been on holiday'

Daily Record07-05-2025

Not heading on holiday this year? Don't worry, as this affordable self-tan will still get you that golden glow.
Looking to get than sun-kissed glow without stepping foot off a plane? Then we know the one self-tan every beauty buff will need.
The amount of fake tanning products available to buy these days has significantly increased over the years. Long gone are the days of those cheap lotions that left a patchy and orange looking effect.
One that is said to provide a "streak free" glow within as little as "one hour" is the Garnier Ambre Solaire Natural Bronzer Self Tan Mist (medium). It's currently a popular buy on Amazon where it is enjoying an incredible 50 percent discount.
Averaging a 4.3 rating based on over 3,000 reviews, this self-tan mist is worth £12.50 but is on offer for just £6.25. Considering Boots has it on offer for £8.33, while Superdrug still stocks it at full-price, it's a deal worth bagging ahead of summer.
With its "weightless" formula, this ultra-fine mist has been designed to be fast drying and non-sticky, with some reviews saying that it is "much easier" to apply than other formulas such as foams and lotions.

Product Description
Infused with a nourishing apricot oil, it doesn't just banish that dreaded 'biscuit smell', but it provides an even golden-glow that has some shoppers saying it makes them look like they have been on holiday.
Offering a "buildable" formula, it allows beauty fans to tailor how light or deep they'd prefer their tan, with the results said to last for "up to one week."
Beauty fans wanting to shop around instead can get the popular Dove Dermaspa Gradual Tan Lotion in the medium to deep shade that costs just £4.34 for a 200ml bottle at Superdrug.
Not keen on a lotion or a mist? Then the Coco & Eve Bali Bronzing Foam (200ml), £26 on Lookfantastic, has earned a cult reputation for its ability to create a natural and even looking tan.
Beauty deal of the week
Looking to incorporate peptides into your skincare routine? Then we know the essential first step.
It's Boots' brand new No7 Future Renew Peptides Cleanser - and it can be bought for £10 less. Worth £24.95 for a 150ml bottle, shoppers can use the code REVERSE10 to reduce the price to under £15.
Using No7's Pepticology, it boasts a "purifying" formula that can remove daily build-up of environmental pollutants, makeup, excess oil and other impurities, all while making sure your skin is not stripped of its moisture.
It also boasts other powerhouse ingredients such as vitamin C and niacinamide that work together to help your skin feel, not just fully clean, but also nourished, visibly renewed and brighter.
However, if you're keen on No7's latest addition, then the Peptide Cleanser has already amassed a 4.5 and 90 percent approval rating from Boots shoppers who have hailed it as "creamy" and "the cleanser of dreams".
One beauty fan praised: "Absolutely loved the formula of this product. It's creamy texture removed all make up leaving my skin feeling silky soft and glowing. The results were visible in days and I've had so many compliments. I love this product so much."
While someone else added: "This is the cleanser of my dreams. Absolute perfection. It has a thick creamy texture that just glides over the skin. It removed all my makeup including waterproof mascara and it didn't leave my skin feeling stripped of all moisture.
"I couldn't detect any fragrance which I loved. My skin felt soft and nicely hydrated after using it. I will be buying this again and again once I use this one up."
Get £10 off the new No7 Future Renew Peptide Cleanser (150ml) by using the REVERSE10 when shopping online here.
However, the Garnier Ambre Self Tan Mist itself currently averages over 2,000 five-star reviews on Amazon, with glowing praise saying have hailed it as their "best kept secret" and "the best" on the market.
One beauty buff praised: "Streak free, realistic tan. This is an excellent bronzer. I have tried a few self tanning body mists and this is without doubt the best. Simple to apply and it dries in less than a minute. Just one spray was enough for me and I had no streaks or certainly no smell which I was so pleased about.

"I like a pale tan but if you want it darker then just re-apply until you get your desired effect. A great beauty product that lasts for at least a week."
Someone else remarked: "Best kept secret! I don't usually write reviews but I had to for this. My face is always so very tired and dull but more importantly pale! I sprayed this very lightly over my face before I went to bed and I've woken up a new woman. No streaks, smells OK and makes me look like I've been on holiday. It looks very natural too."
Someone who wasn't keen on the mist formula wrote: "It may be personal preference but I tan quite a lot and mostly use mousse tans. I thought I would use this for a change as the reviews were good but I'm not really sold on it. May have to try it a few more times to get used to it but I do worry that the coverage isn't as thorough as using a foam tan and a mitt."
Nevertheless, someone else who was a fan added: "Excellent item makes you look like you have just returned from your summer holidays!"

These expert-recommended running shoes are on sale for under $100

Experts have previously advised that you should replace your running shoes every 300 to 500 miles. And if you run regularly, that can mean you're buying a new pair of sneakers a few times a year. A few years ago, I ran several races, including three half-marathons. Between training and the actual races, I logged enough miles to have to replace my sneakers three times, which was a hit on my budget. So, whenever I see a good pair of sneakers on sale, I take notice. While my go-to running shoes are from Hoka, I've completed several races in the Brooks Ghost 16 sneakers — and they are currently available at a great price on Amazon. Get all the details below. These sneakers were our best overall pick for running shoes, with both NBC Select editors and experts giving them kudos. They have moderate cushioning in the sole to absorb shock as your feet hit the ground, without feeling too bulky or heavy. They also have a breathable mesh upper, a soft midsole and a segmented heel pad for a smooth heel-to-toe transition, according to the brand. NBC Select reporter Zoe Malin finds them to be reliable for both road running and treadmill workouts. I have wider feet and appreciate that these shoes have a wide toe box that allows my toes to fully splay while running without any pinching or discomfort. The shoes are available in sizes 5 to 13, come in half sizes and are available in standard, narrow, wide and extra wide widths. These sneakers normally retail for $140 but are currently on sale for $100 on Amazon. Both the men's and women's versions of this shoe are on sale. Why trust NBC Select? I'm a writer at NBC Select who covers a variety of topics, including home, tech and beauty. I have been covering major shopping events like Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday and Cyber Monday for over a decade.
