AS we rapidly approach spring, many beauty enthusiasts will be looking forward to showing off their skin again.
However, after the dreary winter with barely any sunshine, many people may be desperately seeking a little bit of a glow.
This could explain why fake tan sales reportedly soar during springtime.
But with countless products on the shelves at varying prices, many may be wondering which ones are actually worth trying.
The good news is that many fake tanning fans believe you don’t have to spend a fortune to achieve a stunning glow.
In fact, they claim your local Aldi store has you covered.
Nicole, who goes by the name @nicolecooper55 on TikTok, recently went viral after showcasing her tan.
After receiving a flood of questions about how she achieved her look, Nicole decided to share a video revealing her top tips.
The beauty enthusiast explained that she uses the Lacura Self Tan Bronzing Mousse in Dark for her face.
She says: “It is amazing. It’s so golden. It looks really dark.
“It’s like a deep golden colour.”
Nicole added: “It makes you quite orangey around here [but] but when it washes off it is beautiful.”
She then revealed that she also has the same tanning, but in a medium colour which gives a “more light golden tan.”
Her top tip is to: “Put the medium and then the dark one and you’re going to get a super super dark tan.”
Nicole adds: “I think they’re sold out at the minute because I went over to Aldi’s yesterday to see if they had any stock and they never did.
“Just make sure when you’re popping in to ask when they’re restocking and they should be able to tell you.
“I never expected it to go that viral but hey ho Aldi’s is amazing and their products are phenomenal.”
Nicole said she got the fake tan from Aldi for £3.99.
She also mixes the medium shade as well[/caption]
Her viral video in which she gained attention for her tan gained over 338,000 views, whilst her latest video explaining her top tips has currently received over 43,000 views.
Many people rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts as well.
One said: “Aldi tan is 110% better than any big branded tan ever. It’s incredible!!”
A second added: “I remember you recommended this to me two years ago, never looked back! Sooo good.”
Whilst a third asked: “How do you use do you have to wash it off or is it instant.”
To which Nicole replied: “Wash off after you’ve slept or pop on for an hour or two and wash off. The dark is extremely dark.”

Superdrug Solait Self Tan Mousse Medium – £4.79 (was £5.99) – Buy Now
- Tester: Abby Wilson, Senior Fabulous Digital Writer
- Review: “This product give a very natural looking tan and if you wanted something a bit bolder, I’d suggest leaving it on longer or choosing a darker shade. I’m impressed with the results, but now my entire room stinks of the stuff. If you’re on a budget and want a tan for last-minute plans, I would say this is one to try. “
bBold Dream Mousse Tan in Dark – £9.50 – Buy Now
- Tester: Josie O’Brien, Senior Fabulous Digital Writer
- Review: “The first thing that hit me about this tan was the “juicy watermelon” scent – it’s delicious. I was left with a natural bronze hue rather than orange glow. My only qualm is that the tan seemed to stick to my dry patches and accentuated ‘strawberry skin’ on my legs. I’m still adding this tan to my arsenal though – the smell, colour and texture are dreamy.”
St Moriz Professional Medium Tanning Mousse – £4.99 – Buy Now
- Tester: Kate Kulniece, Fabulous Writer
- Review: “Not only does St Moriz mousse leave you with a gorgeous bronzed glow, but it also smells fabulous – think Piña Colada on a sunny beach. At first, I was a little bit sceptical cause I’m a gradual fake tan girlie, but this quick developing St. Moriz number may change it all.”
