Boots fans will 'never use foundation again' since trying £10 'sunkissed Summer glow in a bottle'

Beauty buffs have showered £10 tanning drops with five-star reviews. The tanning drops give a sunkissed glow that lasts five days without the need for foundation, and have been hailed a 'game-changer'.

Isle of Paradise's Self Tanning Drops are a customizable self-tanner for the face. The £10 glow drops have ben infused with Vitamin C to help brighten dull skin, minimize the look of dark spots & create an even tone.

Create a natural, long-lasting glow for visibly brighter skin and a better makeup base by mixing drops with your favorite moisturizer or foundation to minimize the look of redness and hyperpigmentation for even-looking skin tone that lasts for 5 days.

The drops can be mixed with anti-ageing cream to help keep wrinkles at bay while you tan at the same time. I recommend mixing with a night cream so your tan can develop overnight, and you'll wake up with a sunkissed glow - think No7's £34.95 Damage Revers Future Renew Night Cream or L'Oreal Paris' £4.99 Triple Active Night Cream for a more budget option.

One five-star reviewer wrote: "Great product, easy to use by mixing with daily moisturiser (only a few drops needed) and streak free. Gives a nice natural glow." A second said: "This is really great for giving your skin some colour and a light summer glow. The colour is super natural and buildable."

A third beauty buff said of the £10 glow drops: "I was a bit skeptical at first but wow I am so impressed with the ease of application and the colour, it’s such a nice bronzed natural look."

"I have been using these tanning drops for a year or so and really rate them. I mix in with my moisturiser twice per week in the summer and once per week in the winter. It blends really well with no patches or streaks and give a natural glow. Love them," wrote somebody else.

Awarding the drops five stars, somebody else praised: "I absolutely adore this product, it’s a staple in my cabinet! I love how you much you can vary the shade from using 1 drop to 12. In winter I usually use 1-2 drops, but for this time of year it’s usually 4-5 which gives me a really lovely glow. The colour is natural looking and I’m very fair. It doesn’t transfer onto the sheets as long as you leave to sink in before getting into bed. I do find that you have to be careful around the hairline and eyebrow area to avoid that dodgy tan look and also thoroughly wash your hands but as long as you do that, it’s pretty idiot proof."

Another penned: "I've been using 3 drops mixed in with my face moisturiser every 2-3 days and am loving the sun kissed but natural glow that I wake up with the next day! I love that it's buildable and that you can alter the amount of drops you use plus the smell isn't too overpowering as is often the case with a lot of fake tans."

"Love this product! Only need a couple of drops with your moisturiser to get a really natural glow! It gives you a gorgeous base colour and great for the summer. Would recommend" raved another happy Boots shopper.

Somebody else said they don't need foundation after using the tanning drops. They wrote: "I've used this once and omg I love it. I've barely needed to use foundation this week. It gives you a sun kissed glow!”
