Rimmel Sun Shimmer

[frizzytwig]

Must tell all you ladies out there who have had trouble with fake tans.  I happened upon the above a couple of weeks ago in Tesco who were selling it BOGOF.  The stuff is truly amazing, I got color light matte as I dont want sparkle in the day.Goes on excellent the olour is great, I was complimented on my legs which has'nt happened in years.  And....the great thing is it washes off with soap and water.

Just had to share that with you.

Oops sorry, spelt colour tha american way!

I have been using this for about 15 yrs and it never lets me down.Its brilliant.As long as you moisturise about 10 mins before application you wont go wrong.

I bought the darker one and find it impossible to get off my hands after i've applied it!!

 

Puts me off using it

chazza, have you thought about buying some of those thin, vinyl gloves to wear when you apply it?

frizzytwig, is it still on special offer?

[chazza]

i have whispy but cant find any!  i want the tight ones, can only find baggy ones!

[Wispy68]

I have seen some in Tesco, which are tight fitting and are for using with fake tan.

[frizzytwig]

Wispy 68, no the offer is not on anymore although it was only �2.99 per tube.  I did see a sign over it yesterday saying discontinued- hopefully this is just Tesco and not Rimmel.

Thank you frizzytwig. That's still reasonably priced. I used to use it in the 80s and thought it was pretty good (and cheap) then! Going to have to buy a tube, just to see whether it's still as good as I remember it to be. Cheers!!

...I've just realised that the Sun Shimmer I used to use may have been made by Coty. I wonder whether it's the same stuff, but is now made and sold by Rimmel...?

Whatch out, i just bought it �4.37 in Asda today, presumed that asda would offer the best price!!
