Review: Tomas Total Tan

I found this sweet little gem because of this post from Maskcara. She has been talking about how amazing this was for aggggggges and I never really understood what the fuss was all about. Until I actually got my hands on it. I use this on soooo many of my clients. It is a god sent.

I know not everyone is into self tanning or tanning in general. This IS NOT the only use. 

If you have acne, or dark spots, OR DARK CIRCLES, this is your cup of tea and you need it. I think she explained it as having a white carpet, and dropping red wine on it. Giiiiirrrl that is never coming out. Don't even try. I wouldn't. Jk. But with a tan carpet, it will be so much less noticeable. (After doing the Vampire Tutorial I dropped the whole thing of fake blood in my new car I had for a week, I know nothing to do with this story, but it was gray seats and I think most of it got out. My luck, kill me, ok Ill stop rambling) But, back to the story, if you have more of a tan your acne or dark circles is going to be easier to cover compared to if you are blankity white. 

I know my pale girls, me included, in order to cover every single spot, you will end up looking soooo cakey when your done because its impossible. This helps bring everything to one color making it a lot less work to cover everything. So you get a flawless, not cakey base. Honestly, go watch her video. I'm going through the same exact things and she explains it so much better!

Also if you've ever tanned or laid out I know this is always my struggle, my face is allllways so much paler than my neck. And when I fake tan I don't spray tan my face because it comes off so easily. So I just spray this on my face before I do my makeup and wait like ten seconds then go on about my day. Or you could have the total opposite problem and your neck be sooo pale. I feel you. This will help you. She says this in her post as well but this is ALOT more natural for that glow rather than piling up on the bronzer. Honestly, in the winter when I just feel way to pale, I spray this on my neck and face because no ones going to see if your bodys pale anyway. And this isn't like going to make you ten shades darker so its obvious. It just gives you this glow. Like helloooo I slept 10 hours, woke up went for a run, showered, ate a nice nutritious breakfast, all before 10 am. Yeah that never happens to me either.

BY THE WAY-- This isn't a typical self tanner. It washes off in the shower. Like you still have a little tint. Its not like if you are in the rain this would run off your face. But, its not permanent. 

Really, this is a life changer. You can get it at Sallys for $15 and that can will last you a coons age. 

Whats your favorite way to cover your acne and dark spots? Do you have any cool tricks? Also, do you spray tan? Whats your favorite? 

How I Cleared My Acne Quick!

Alright guys so this is a sensitive subject for most girls and that is ACNE! I thought I was blessed with gods gift to the earth skin that never got a break out ever and I bragged all the time about how perfect my skin was... Then it hit me like a box of rocks and I started breaking out all the time. It was literally the weirdest thing ever. I never had acne before so I had no idea what in the world to do. It started around last July and now it is finally coming to an end (except my time of the month pimple) I HOPE! So, I will show you what helped for my skin and I hope it helps you as well! Lesson learned: Don't brag about anything because it will come back and bite you really hard!


The first thing that is the best thing since sliced bread: MY CLARISONIC!
Ok, I know its pricy. But honestly, I wanted it for so long and never could justify paying that much for a little thing to wash my face. I am not kidding you go spend all your money now! It is that important! It is waterproof so I use it in the shower and my Mia 2 has two options. For everyday use, then the more intensive days where you just need a little extra umph. You can use it with any cleanser and I use Boscias' cleansing gel. I love this because I have combo skin. I have a lot of dry patches but I'm acne prone. Its odd. This gel literally never dries me out which I love! The worst feeling is after you wash your face and its soooo tight-- It doesn't happen with this one! It is the bees knees.

After I use my clarisonic, I use my Lushs' Tea Tree Water Toner and spritz that all over my face wait a few minutes and I moisturize with Ultra Repair Cream- Intensive Therapy. Just because this winter has been awful!!!! Once spring comes back I will probably switch to something lightweight. But, this moisturizer is awesome if you have dry skin. Then thats it! Honestly, if you take care of your skin, your skin will thank you. I promise!

When I do get breakouts, this really probably sounds so crazy. But I don't like that whole toothpaste thing. It never worked for me. So I use hydrogen peroxide :x I use a cotton ball and apply it right onto the pimple and the next morning I swear to you, that your pimple will be way smaller. I promise. If you're not into putting that onto your face thats ok, I really like Lushs' Grease Lightening a lot too! I don't think its as effective but it is awesome! Its a gel like consistency and you just apply it to the breakout.. Wake up and its a baby pimple :)

Lastly, the most amazing part second to my clarisonic, is Glam Glows Supermud Clearing Treatment. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHkhdaflkjsfhsdfdhkajfdslfjkhlhfa. The best. Hands down I am obsessed. It is pricy again, but like I am saying I would invest in them. I have a lot of blackheads on my nose and chin and this literally pulls them out I am not kidding. If you have a weak stomach exit this blog because this is disgusting!

Those little dots are literally my black heads making their way out. Its gross but its also neat. My skin feels so good after this! I only put it where I need it so, my T zone and any pimples I have at the time.  

I really hope this works for you! Honestly, acne is tough. You just really have to test out different products and find what really works for YOU! I also have some great secrets on how to conceal acne and acne scars as well. Let me know if you would like to see that in the comments!
