SugarBaby Ready Set Glow Tinted Self Tan Cream review

Betty has tested self tans again and this week the lucky product is SugarBaby's Ready Set Glow Tinted Self Tan Cream. 

Brand
SugarBaby is an Australian owned beauty brand founded in 1998. The brand consist of quite a big range of products; body balms, lip balms, perfume, candles and a range of different make up products as well as their range of fake tans. Their mission is "to help customers to look and feel their best". Sounds good to Betty! 

The SugarBaby self tan products are easy to notice with their metallic bottles and pretty pinup girls. However, each different product within the range tends to look similar, so make sure you read the label before you hit the counter to be sure you go home with the product you wanted. 

Application 
SugarBaby has made it easier for you by making this product tinted. This allows you to see where you have applied it, avoiding those unsightly streaks. The cream is lightweight and smooth and as it says on the bottle - you should apply quickly until fully absorbed to avoid an uneven result.  The product washes easily off your hands, so no need to use a mitt unless you prefer to do so. 

The product is enriched with sweet almond oil, shea butter, aloe vera and SugarBaby's customised skin-loving Acti-Tan-3 which will nourish your skin almost as well as a moisturizer. Betty's skin really did feel soft and silky once the cream fully absorbed. 

Drying time 
The cream absorbs fast, but felt sticky on Betty's skin for about 30 minutes after application. She therefore recommends that you leave in a bit of extra time before getting dressed. If you are in a hurry, this is not the product for you. 

Smell before 
Betty decided to do the boyfriend test for this product and luckily it was approved, getting an immediate response that it had a coconut-like smell. We all know that the boyfriend self tan stink test is the hardest one to pass, so if it is good enough for the boyfriend, it is good enough for Betty. 

Smell after 
The product has a tiny scent of stinky self tan a few hours after application. As with most self tan products, Betty recommends showering when the color has fully developed to remove any self tan stink. This worked a charm yet again, and Ready Set Glow made Betty shine without any hint of nasty smell.

Colour produced 
The product leaves a light golden glow immediately when applying to the skin. SugarBaby recommends that you allow two hours for the tan to fully develop, but Betty doesn't think there is a noticeable difference after this time. Therefore, if you want a deeper tan, she recommends reapplying after those two hours if you want a darker color. 

How long it lasts 
The Ready Set Glow Tinted Self Tan Cream lasted on Betty's skin for a couple of days before she had to reapply to maintain the color. Remember to keep hydrated and moisturised so that your tan stays beautiful and looks natural for as long as possible. 

Price 
SugarBaby's Ready Set Glow Tinted Self Tan Cream 200ml sells for AU$19.95 on the SugarBaby website (here). It is also available in selected stores in Australia and New Zealand. 

Unfortunately SugarBaby dos not currently offer international shipping. 

Betty gives SugarBaby Ready Set Glow a score of 6/10 with the biggest minus being that she thinks the tan feels too sticky when first applying and she wished the tan lasted longer. Other than that it is a great product that leaves a golden glow, has a pleasant smell and a price she likes.

Scrub that skin baby

Lets talk prep work. Our skin cells die and reproduce every seven to 10 days before they shred, and we need to make a clean, even canvas for that amazing fake tan that we want to apply to our bodies. It doesn't help that the fake tan you use is perfect if your skin is not, so please listen up and start prepping. 

The magic starts in the shower. Scrub scrub scrub. Exfoliating is crucial part of the fake tan process. It will really make your fake tan look so much more natural, even and gorgeous. When buying an exfoliator you want to go for a gentle scrub to avoid irritating the skin. Try to avoid oil-based products as the oil can work as a barrier between the fake tan and the top layer of the skin. Once you are all scrubbed out and ready to go, dab your skin dry with a clean towel and voilà - you are one step closer to (fake) sun kissed perfection. 

The next prep step varies from person to person. Some people prefer to apply the fake tan straight away after showering, while others like to moisturize. If you prefer your skin to be moist, go for a moisturizer that contains gradual self tan. Most of the fake tan brands out there have a gradual tan product and this could be the perfect partner for your favorite fake tan as these products are formulated to work with DHA and that way they don't clog your pores. If you prefer your skin to be dry, applying moisturizer to the dry areas of the body like elbows, knees and hands can help against over absorption of the fake tan on these areas and therefore won't leave you with orange patches here and there.
