Love it: ModelCo’s all new, all great Gradual Tan

It’s THAT time of the year when the layers start falling off, so if you’re not working with some kind of tanning product now then I suggest you get to it – stat! And, if you’re as rubbish as I am at applying most self-tanners then it’s high time you made a gradual tanner your friend – the best of the bunch are pretty much foolproof, and great for your skin to boot.

I was rather excited last week to attend the launch of Australian beauty brand ModelCo’s latest releases, one of which was – yay! – a gradual tanner. They are a brand known for high performance, no-nonsense, innovative products, and the new bunch is no different. ModelCo’s Gradual Tan (told you they were no-nonsense) is an everyday triple action self-tanning moisturiser for all skin types that acts as a self-tanner, tan extender and moisturiser all in one, allowing you to build or prolong a natural-looking, streak free tan gradually and easily.

Infused with the super nourishing and anti-oxidant properties of Green Tea Extract, the luxurious formula helps to improve and even out skin tone, prevent the visible signs of aging and protect the skin all while delivering a gradual golden glow. It’s also scented with what they call “delicious summer fruits”, so there are no tell tale signs of tanning, just a fresh, yummy scent.

You can use it with ModelCo’s new Super Tan, Tan Airbrush in a Can, Tan Mousse, Self Tanning Glove or any self tanner to intensify or extend the life of your tan, or simply use it as I am right now - on its own for a natural looking sun-kissed glow all year round.

ModelCo’s tip for use is to apply Gradual Tan every day for 3-6 days until you reach your desired depth of golden glow, then use every second day to keep your tan topped up and looking its best. No streaks, no faux glow smell and no mess – this product is a right little wonder!
