I just tried a sample of Nature’s Gate Sunless tanner and I’m really impressed with the color. Of all the sunless tanners I have tried recently it is the truest tan color, leaving my skin with the perfect bronzed just back from vacation look. It smooths on really well and the olive oil gives it  a nice scent.

Because the color is so rich just take the time to exfoliate first and really apply it everywhere. I rushed the first time and had some spots, second time I did it the right way and voila perfect tan.

The June issue of Health named the Nature’s Gate Sunless Tanner one of America’s Healthiest Buys of 2010 in the Self-Tanner category.

Health put nearly 1,100 products to the test, and with help of top dermatologists they found 16 fabulous beauty products that deliver on their promises. Judge Grace H. Pak, MD loves that the Nature’s Gate Sunless Tanner is “formulated without parabens and phthalates and has a moisturizing base of olive oil that leaves skin soft.”

The Nature’s Gate Sunless Tanner is lightweight and fast-absorbing, making it perfect for all skin types. Other formulas include Green Tea and Red Raspberry, which fight free radicals and keep skin looking youthful. A subtle development of color will appear within the first day of use and will continue to develop with additional applications, building a natural, even, and year-round tan.

Keep your skin bronzed, beautiful and beachy with this best beauty buy!
