Perfect summer complexion in winter: You only need this one product (available from Rossmann)

Fall asleep in the evening and wake up in the morning with a sun-kissed complexion? This drugstore product makes it possible and I tested it.

My skin tone is naturally alpine white. In winter and spring I could spontaneously take part in Twilight. And I can't count how many times I've been asked if I'm sick because of my pale complexion. That's annoying!

While others are fine with their snow white skin, I don't feel comfortable with my natural skin color. I look sickly even though I feel perfectly healthy.

But tanning beds or tanning in general are out of the question for me. Because I have a lot of birthmarks and I know how harmful UV radiation is. I also don't see the need to put on make-up every day.

A while ago I made a discovery at the drugstore that changed my life, or rather my skin tone, forever. Goodbye Alpina skin, hello Mallorca complexion – and all without make-up, even in winter!

Self-tanning drops create a tanned complexion overnight

My secret for a sun-kissed complexion that looks healthy and radiant: self-tanning drops.

Unlike “normal” self-tanner, the self-tanner concentrate can be dosed with a pipette and added as drops to normal face cream. This prevents unpleasant accidents.

Anyone who has ever had an accident with self-tanner knows what I mean. By the way:This product is supposed to be able to remove failed self-tanner.*

I have already tested myself with many self-tanning products for my face from the drugstore. Many have disappointed me. For me these are some of the best productsM. Asam Sun Self Tanning Drops, which you can buy online but also in retail stores, for example at Rossmann or Müller.

What I like about the self-tanning drops is that they are brownish in color. This way I can see immediately whether the cream and drops are completely mixed.

It also makes it easier to apply evenly because I can see which areas I haven't applied the cream yet.

According to the recommendation, one to three drops per application are enough, which I can confirm. This makes them Self Tanning Drops von M. Asam* very productive.

After a few hours the result becomes apparent: my previously very pale skin now has a golden, warm tone, as if the sun had kissed me.

You wouldn't believe how often I've been asked about my fresh summer complexion since I started using the tanning drops.

Shopping-Tipp:M. Asam's online shop currently offers a self-tanning set consisting of the drops and body fluid.*

Self-tanner for the face: How to use it correctly

I experimented a bit until I found a routine that gives me the most natural skin tone and is quick and easy at the same time.

I use the self-tanning drops for my face every three days in the evening. First I cleanse my face as usual, then I use a larger amount of my night cream (it has to be used for my face, neck and...enough), place it in the palm of your hand and add two drops of the Self Tanning Drops. I started with one. I would also advise you to approach it slowly.

I then mix the whole thing with my finger into a homogeneous mass and first distribute the cream on my cheeks, nose, forehead and chin before rubbing everything evenly. Be sure to go all the way to your hairline and don't forget behind your ears!

Then it's time for the neck and décolleté. Personally, I use so much cream as a base that I can also apply it to my shoulders and neck. This way I avoid unnatural edges.

These self-tanning drops are also popular:

My personal tip at the end:Make sure you use enough cream to make it easier to apply evenly. I bought a cheap night cream from Rossmann especially for my self-tanning routine. I use my more expensive night cream on the remaining days when I don't use the drops.
