I'll be honest with myself and readers alike, I am a tanning addict and I know that this is terrible for my health, skin and complexion overall, yet continue to do it rather frequently. I am a regular at my local tanning salon combining the Sunboard Tanning Bed with the Vista Sunless Spray tan. I am also a lover of bronzers, especially MAC's bronzing powder, but I've found the perfect natural spray tan that is healthy yet gives you that perfect sun kissed glow. Neutrogena's Micro-Mist in Deep Level 3 for me gives me that instant to die for tan that many would kill for. The best part is that it can be purchased at drugstores for $10.99 and lasts for many sessions! Could the perfect tan really be this simple? It is affordable and streak-free at that. The 360 degree design lets you get those hard to reach places and apply it evenly to yourself. The instructions say to spray 6" away from your body and for your face spray the product onto your hands and rub all over your face. I do not find this step necessary and tend to just spray my face anyway and have never had a problem. I find that this product tends to last for about a week and the bottle itself lasts about 4-5 spraying sessions.
