Review & Photos- He-Shi Dark Foaming Mousse.


Hello strangers! Long time no blog! :(
I have been up to 90 the past 2 months, when i came home from Amsterdam i was straight back into work and found it hard to find time to review products & write good quality posts. I've also started driving in the past few weeks (Finally!) and My boyfriends sister-in-law had a beautiful baby boy at the end of march (who were all in love with!) so it was almost impossible to sit down and focus on writing properly!

But now everything is starting to wind down again and I've had time to review The He-Shi Dark Foaming Mousse! I always saw He-Shi in Pharmacies and floating around social Media, but it was Terrie McEvoy's Posts and snapchat's about the brand which really sparked my interest! 
Let me start off by saying this Isn't as affordable as your Cocoa Brown or Rimmel tan which is what I always went for, so I was a bit apprehensive in purchasing something worth  €32.50 in case it was a let down; but I saw it was reduced in Sam McCauley's to €21.66 so I just took the plunge!
So far I absolutely love it! A little goes a very long way, and it so easy to blend! It claims to be a foaming mousse but its a lot less drying on the skin than some you would find on the market!
It has a lovely fresh smell on application which isn't heavy like most tans. When you leave it develop it does have a fake tan scent but it's the most subtle than any other tan I've used!
It claims on the bottle to last 7-10 days, and I would have to agree, But i would suggest moisturizing every morning or evening to help it fade more naturally and avoid any patchy-ness! 

SO! after all that i took a before and after photo of the tan on my legs. I exfoliated and shaved a few hours before applying the tan and Didn't Moisturize. It advises not to moisturize before on the bottle before applying the tan. I also took this photo around 12 hours after application, i applied it before i went to bed to leave it develop nicely! 

Also a breif warning, My legs are RIDICULOUSLY pale naturally so just prepare yourselves gang, haha!




So There ye have it! It pretty much speaks for itself! I was so pale in the first picture I was almost transparent! It came out super even and gave me a really healthy glow. That was taken nearly 5 days ago and it's fading fab! 
It is an expensive tan, there is no denying that! But I'm going to be keeping this one for nights out & special occasions! I'm delighted I took the plunge and used this because I love it!

I can also promise these photo's are not retouched or filtered. I took them on my phone camera using the flash!
