Utan’s Sun-Activated Mist Is Here To Revolutionise Your Tanning Routine

Award-winning beauty brand utan is constantly surprising customers with innovative new tanning products that go beyond the traditional orange mousse. First there was gummies, then there was water, then anti-bacterials, and now the brand has introduced Total Glow, a tanning mist that is activated by the sun.

The new mist – which is PETA-approved, vegan, and cruelty-free – does away with Dihydroxyacetone (the ingredient traditionally used in fake tan) and instead utilises the power of raspberry-based keto sugars and hyaluronic acid to give “a potent dose of moisturiser and nourishing calendula to condition your skin,” says the brand. It promises to develop a glow in two to three days.

Elsewhere in skincare, Dove’s Skin Glow body lotion has just had a major price reduction at Boots. In make up, Primark has launched a brand new at-home beauty range Beauty Coup, designed for those who’ve developed some DIY skills over lockdown and don’t fancy going back to salon prices.

There are also a couple of high-end launches this week from Japanese beauty brand SENSAI and beauty technology company Sensica. The price tags here are on the expensive side but the promised results are pretty mind blowing too. So, for those who are happy to invest big bucks in their self-care routine, the products are definitely worth checking out.

utan Total Glow DHA- Free Sun Activated Mist

A brand new approach to self-tanning. Utan recommends misting this over your full body two to three days before sun exposure for a subtle, golden glow.

Beauty Coup Pre Glued Eye Lashes

Primark launched their Beauty Coup range as a way to give customers a “highly effective” range of DIY products that promise “salon-worthy finish for a fraction of the price.” The range includes an eyebrow tint, a lash tint, a lash serum, and seven options for fake eyelashes. Go bold with these large lashes, which are pre-glued and (like the rest of the range) cruelty-free.

Dove Skin Glow Oil-in-Milk Body Lotion

Dove’s Skin Glow body lotion first launched in June but is worth a mention this week, as the product recently became half off at Boots. The product is formulated with light-reflecting minerals and natural oils that promise to deliver a glow that illuminates your skin to leave you feeling radiant. Not bad for £7.69, huh?

Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base

In major beauty news, Bobbi Brown launched online at Boots this week, making it easier than ever to pick up one of their cult products. This face base is one of the brand’s best sellers, loved for its two-in-one formula, working as a primer plus and a moisturiser for ultra smooth makeup application.

SENSAI Lash Conditioner

Like a mask for lashes, this conditioner promises to strengthen frail and brittle lashes, fortifying the inner layers with “protein-bonding properties” and providing a “protective outer layer.” SENSAI suggest you apply this in the evening and let their product get to work while you sleep. The price tag here is pretty major but the promised results are pretty exciting. Watch the Harrods website, as this product will be launching there within the next few days.

Sensica Sensismooth

Another product with a hefty price tag, but Sensica promises that this smoothing tool is basically an “all-in-one spa”. The Sensismooth can be used for facial cleansing, gentle face and body exfoliation, and rejuvenating pedicure treatments. It uses Sensica’s patented Adapt2U™ pad technology, which is designed to follow the contours of your skin’s surface, making it easy to target hard to reach tricky areas such as elbow, knees, and ankles.
