How to: St. Tropez at LFW, Julien Macdonald SS15

In their words, tanning masters St. Tropez followed UK designer Julien Macdonald “into the deep blue sea” at London Fashion Week, creating a shimmering glow to accompany his collection that has been called the “SS15 Mermaid Gleam”.

St. Tropez Global Tanning and Skin Finishing expert Nicholas Joss said of the look, “think shimmer, gloss and iridescence. This is gorgeous, healthy skin that comes with a watery sheen to give our girls an otherworldly beauty.”

To recreate the look yourself using some of the brand’s new and much-applauded products:

1. 1Start by massaging the new St. Tropez Self Tan Face Oil (launching March 2015) into the face and allow it to absorb well before applying makeup. You won’t need much of the latter due to the former’s killer glow.
2. Buff St Tropez Instant Tan Lotion in Medium/Dark all over the body using the St. Tropez Tan Application Mitt to create a warm, caramel, even tone.
3. Sweep St. Tropez Dry Luxe Oil (a product I haven’t tried but now am desperate to!) down limbs and across the collarbone for the ultimate sub-aqua gleam.

With the temperature (hopefully) starting to heat up soon, this look is the perfect ticket for those long, hot summer nights to come… Love it.
