Hiya, honey! :o)
Good for you stopping the sun bed sessions. Have you tried any of the fake tans? I like Fake Bake, but it's too pricey for me so I use Ambre Solaire occasionally and it's a really nice colour. I buy the mousse, but you have to rub it in very carefully, so as not to streak. I don't use it often as I have a fear of going orange. :o)
I bought Virgin Vie's Brightening Boost from a party my mate held a good few months ago now. Two people have actually stopped me and said I have radiant skin! :o))
You're can wear it under your foundation, but I put a tiny bit on my cheekbones over my blusher or bronzer. You use so little that it lasts forever. I think I bought it for �12.50, but I know they're being sold on eBay too...
Hope this helps, babe. x
