Cocoa Brown 1 hour tan review ....

Hey guys :)

I have a product review for you today and it's of the Cocoa brown 1 hour tan by Marissa Carter, it's £7.99 a bottle, and you can find it online on feel unique but also in some Primark stores.

If you know me you'll most likely know that I love fake tan ( maybe a little to much sometimes) but you may also know I am super pale, I mean like as pale as they come, and this often influences what tans I buy. So time for a little bit of info about this product, it's actually a product from Ireland and Marissa Carter had the pale skinned Irish girls in mind when coming up with her tans, this tan is also different to most other tans as you don't have to wait around 8 hours for it to develop it develops to a lovely bronze colour in just an hour so no more sleeping with your tan on.

Lets move onto before and after pictures, ( I cant believe I'm actually putting up pictures of my pale legs on the internet for everyone to see)

As you can see I am super pale, I actaully avoided fake tan for around 2 weeks so you could all have a good look at how this tan actually works on pale skin

This is the colour straight after applying, Im pretty impressed with this colour it's a nice subtle colour on the skin.

This is the colour my legs went after leaving the tan for around two hours and then washing it off.

And again take note of just how pale my arms actually are.

This is after leaving the tan on for around 2 hours and washing it off, the tan took really well to my arms actually and went this gorgeous colour.

Ok time for the Pro's and Con's of this tan.

Pro's

• Only takes 1 hour to develop
• Doesn't go orangey on pale skin
• Doesn't have that usual fake tan biscuit smell
• Is a good price for fake tan
• Apply's really easy and smooth
• Isn't drying on the skin at all
• Dries quickly so no waiting around for a tacky to tan dry
• The colour actually carries on developing after rinsing it off
• Contains no parabens 

Con's

• Even though it doesn't smell like tan, it has a very strong perfume smell, which I am finding to be pretty over powering 
• As it is quick drying you need to work fast with this, get it rubbed in quickly 

Overall I'm pretty much in love with this tan, and it is definitely going to be my new go to tan, as I can leave it for just an hour and get a really pretty subtle colour or leave it for around 3 and get a very deep dark tan, and for all you pale girls out there I say just give this tan a go, it was made with you girls in mind.
