Fake tan 'so popular' one sells every 20 seconds now has 'genius' new body oil
As the weather warms up, achieving a radiant, sun-kissed look tops many people's summer beauty wish list. However, while we all yearn for that golden glow, it's equally crucial to shield ourselves from the sun's damaging rays.
Hence, investing in fake tan and SPF-infused body oils is a wise move before jetting off on holiday. And beauty enthusiasts have long sung praises of Coco&Eve.
The brand's much-loved Sunny Honey Bali Bronzing Foam sells like hotcakes, with one of the £26 products selling every 20 seconds, to be precise. Now, the brand has upped its game with its latest offering - the Tan Boosting Anti-Aging Body Oil SPF50.
Designed to prolong your sun-kissed look, this multi-tasking £29 oil promises to nourish skin, provide robust protection against UVA/UVB rays with high SPF50 coverage, and enhance your natural tan.
The lightweight, non-sticky formula is perfect for maintaining colour whilst keeping skin protected and silky smooth. Plus, it boasts a delightful fragrance blend of juicy pear, creamy almond, coconut and mango, reports the Manchester Evening News.
For optimal results before your holiday, we suggest applying the Bali Bronzing Foam or the Sun-Kissed Gradual Tan Lotion a few days prior to departure.
Once your tan has developed, use the Body Oil daily to hydrate skin and preserve that fresh-off-the-beach look. It'll help extend the life of your tan while imparting a glossy, healthy sheen to your skin.
Before you settle down to sunbathe, slather on the oil generously. Following a day under the sun's rays, it's wise to apply a calming after-sun lotion or aloe vera.
For those still searching, there are numerous SPF-infused body oils that can enhance your tan. NUXE's £24 Sun Tanning Oil, for example, is infused with botanical extracts and vitamin E, leaving skin feeling sumptuously soft and luminous.
Alternatively, The Fox Tan Rapid Elixir has been given the thumbs up by Manchester Evening News' Fashion and Beauty Editor, Rachel Pugh. Now discounted to £19.99 from £24.99 at Look Fantastic, this formula is designed to prime your skin for sun exposure and is suitable for daily use or a few days prior.
Coco&Eve's Body Oil may be a fresh face on the market, but it's already gaining high praise. One satisfied customer remarked: "It's a miracle that I got a tan without burning. I like how this oil is hydrating; it left my skin feeling silky smooth.
"It comes in a nice scent, and with the pump applicator, there is more control over the product, and it doesn't spray everywhere. I will reach for it in the future for my time in the sun."
Beauty deal of the week
Perfume fans will be keen to hear about a deal we have just spotted at Boots.
Those looking for something "timeless" and "distinctive" might already have Givenchy's Amarige Eau de Toilette on their radar. A favourite since the early 90s, it's got a bit of a cult reputation.
Even better, Boots has just dropped the cost of a large 100ml from £109 to just £54.50, allowing shoppers to save an impressive 50 percent off a beloved perfume.
Its scent makes up a "beautiful bouquet of white flowers", with top notes of tangerine, violet and rosewood being mixed with heart notes of gardenia, mimosa, red fruits and ylang-ylang.
The scent then finishes on "vibrant yet muted" base notes of ambergris, precious woods, musks and vanilla. The bottle, which was designed by perfume legend Pierre Dinand, takes inspiration from the ruffles sleeves of a Bettina Blouse designed by Givenchy.
One shopper who is a devoted fan wrote: "One five-star review read: "I bought this on offer at Boots, it was around £30 cheaper than anywhere else! It has an amazing timeless distinctive scent must be tried!"
A second loyal fan said: "The best perfume of all times! So classy! I'm glad it is back for it has been my signature perfume for more than a decade. Intense. Long lasting. Amazing. Complements galore!"

Another user praised the product, saying: "It gave my skin a beautiful glow without feeling greasy. It's incredibly hydrating, perfect for my aging skin, and the added sun protection is a bonus. A new staple in my skincare routine."
So far, the bronzing product hasn't attracted any negative feedback. Yet, one individual reported that the SPF30 variant caused them to develop a 'heat rash after three days of use.
A devotee of SPF50 remarked: "I'm someone who burns easily and always has a coat of self-tan on. This is the only oil that doesn't make me burn or ruin my self-tan. Most oils make my self-tan separate, but this doesn't affect it at all."
They continued to praise the product, saying: "I love how it keeps me protected while allowing me to get a tan. It smells amazing and absorbs fast, leaving a hydrated, glow finish with no residue. I have finally found my dream product."

Mother-of-four, 43, reveals subtle mark she thought was just dry skin - but it was skin cancer: 'I ALWAYS wore sunscreen'
A mother-of-four who dismissed a small dry patch on her nose was shocked to be told it was skin cancer—because she had been 'obsessed' with wearing sun cream. Amanda Anderson, 43, first noticed the blemish in January but assumed it was down to the cold Utah winter. She visited her GP 'just to be on the safe side'—but was given a cream to soothe the dryness. But when the mark came back, bled and began to scab, Amanda's instincts told her something wasn't right. She went to another medic and a biopsy revealed basal cell carcinoma—the most common type of skin cancer. 'I wasn't super concerned at the beginning,' said Amanda, who lives in Layton and works for a suicide prevention charity. 'It was just a little dry spot on the side of my nose. With it being the winter it's common to have dry patches.' Doctors scheduled her for Mohs surgery, a specialist technique where thin layers of skin are removed and examined under a microscope until no cancer cells remain. Amanda needed three rounds before surgeons confirmed they had cleared it. The procedure left a penny-sized hole in her nose, which was repaired by folding skin from above and below to cover the gap. 'It's hard to hear,' Amanda said of her diagnosis. 'It's on my face and as a woman we do everything we can to make sure our faces look as good as possible. 'I'm obsessed about sun cream and shade. So it was a bit of a gut punch.' Amanda's father, Kirk Romney, 66, has faced his own battles with skin cancer and endured more than 17 Mohs surgeries to remove tumours from his face, neck and shoulders. But Amanda grew up in Arizona in the 1980s, when tanning was fashionable and sunscreen wasn't widely used. 'I'm very fair—I freckle, I don't tan easily,' she said. 'There was a tanning salon across the street from school that wasn't regulated. I lived in Arizona where it was year-round sun.' Now recovering, she is urging others to take skin protection seriously and to act quickly if they notice anything unusual. 'The damage is done when you're young,' Amanda said. 'I encourage my daughters to put sun cream on underneath their make-up. 'I'm trying to build healthy habits in my kids. People don't realise you can get sunburnt through the window of a car. 'We have to take care of our skin like you would your teeth. Skin cancer is so preventable.' Skin cancer is among the most common cancers in both the UK and the US. In Britain, melanoma—the deadliest form—affects around 17,000 people a year, while here are an estimated 156,000 new non-melanoma skin cancer cases annually, including basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma. In the US, around 9,500 people are diagnosed with skin cancer every single day. One in five Americans will develop it at some point in their lives. Basal cell carcinoma, which Amanda had, is rarely fatal but can cause significant damage if left untreated. It often appears on sun-exposed areas such as the nose, lips and ears—as the main trigger is UV exposure, from the sun. Squamous cell carcinoma is also common and can spread if not removed early. Melanoma, though accounting for just one per cent of cases, causes the vast majority of skin cancer deaths. Around 104,000 new melanomas are expected in the US this year, leading to more than 8,000 deaths. The good news is that survival is high when skin cancers are caught early. In the UK, more than nine in ten people with melanoma survive at least ten years—one of the highest survival rates of any cancer. But outcomes depend heavily on how early it is caught. If the disease has spread to the lymph nodes, survival falls to around 75 per cent, and if it reaches other organs just 35 per cent of patients live five years. Non-melanoma cancers like Amanda's are even more treatable, with cure rates above 95 per cent if removed promptly. Mohs surgery—considered the gold standard for high-risk or facial skin cancers—offers cure rates of up to 99 per cent. Experts urge people to be vigilant and check their skin regularly. For moles, dermatologists recommend the ABCDE rule: look out for Asymmetry, irregular Borders, Colour variation, large Diameter, and any Evolving change. Other red flags include sores that don't heal, patches that bleed or scab, and new lumps or bumps that look different to the rest. Amanda says her experience shows that anyone can be affected, no matter how careful they are. 'I had a gut feeling that it was going to need to be removed,' she said. 'I'm just glad I listened to my instincts.' She will now have check-ups every six months but doesn't need further treatment. Her advice is simple: don't ignore changes to your skin. 'Skin cancer is so preventable,' Amanda said. 'If you notice something unusual, don't wait. Get it checked.'

Boots £35 anti-ageing serum sold more than 4 million times slashed to £10 today only
Users have noticed an 'amazing difference' in their wrinkles, and can now save £24.95 on the 'supercharged' serum that has been 'clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by up to five years' An anti-ageing serum that's sold millions of times since its launch in 2018 has been slashed to £10 for one day only. The No7 Laboratories Line Correcting Booster serum is usually £34.95, but has been reduced as part of Boots' weekly £10 Tuesday deal. The potent formula is said to be 'clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by up to five years', with the new price saving shoppers £24.95 on the RRP. The sought-after serum is 'supercharged' with Matrixyl 3000+ which is a peptide blend that supports the skin's 'natural springs' to deliver elasticity and bounce. It contains seven times the amount of the powerful ingredient than the brand's previous clinically proven serums. As such, it can reportedly target 'even the deepest, most stubborn lines and wrinkles'. 47 Skin's 'life-changing' skincare products for spot-prone teens are now 10% off L'Oreal anti-ageing skincare bundle with 'magic in a jar' cream is now £47 off Dermatologist approved, the serum is designed to target the six key wrinkle zones; forehead, crows feet, lip, between brows, under eyes and nasolabial folds. Simply apply the product directly to lines and wrinkles for 'fast, visible results where you want them most'. Elsewhere, a number of retailers have similar options available. Medik8 stocks the Liquid Peptides Advanced MP for £79. The wrinkle reduction serum contains a 30% multi-peptide complex that's proven to deliver results in as little as 10 minutes. Meanwhile, FaceTheory has the Retinol Ester 2% Renewing Serum for £22. The firming 2% retinol ester serum contains vitamin C and hyaluronic acid, which work to brighten and hydrate. The popular No7 product. however, has sold more than four million tubes, with the wrinkle-busting hero boasting a rating of 4 out of five on the Boots website. One customer wrote: 'I've been using this for just 2 weeks and I can see an amazing difference in a deep frown line on my forehead. The product feels lovely to apply and most importantly it really works.' Another commented: 'I've been using this for a couple of weeks now and have noticed an improvement in deep lines, particularly smile lines. Purchased during £10 Tuesdays so fantastic value for money. Would repurchase at full price.' But not everyone has seen the results that they were hoping for. One shopper left a lukewarm two star review which read: 'Been using this a few weeks now religiously morning and night as part of my No7 routine. I'm sad to say I'm not really seeing a difference. Didn't expect it to work on deeper lines (gosh polyfiller wont even help me there) but I expected to really see a difference on fine lines. Normally a huge fan of No7 but sadly not on this occasion.' While a fourth commented: 'I've used the No7 Laboratories line corrector for several years now. The first and most noticeable difference was to my forehead lines. However over two or three weeks I noticed the lines/wrinkles on my cheeks were definitely less obvious. I'm very happy with the results and even happier when the Line Corrector is available on Boots £10 Tuesday.' It's not the only deal worth taking a look at on Boots £10 Tuesday, though, as other deals include money off products from Olay, L'Oreal, Huda Beauty and more. Shoppers can explore the £10 Tuesday deals on the Boots website, or buy the No7 Line Correcting Booster Serum here.
