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. "

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

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."

Croke Park under fire for selling cans of Smirnoff Ice for a tenner
Music and sporting venues are under fire for the extortionate prices they are charging for alcoholic beverages, with Croke Park recently adding cans of Smirnoff Ice to their menu. A four-pack of the 250ml cans of the alco-pop are sold in off-licenses for €8, with Croke Park charging more than that for one single can. TikTok creator Dave Duke took to the video sharing platform to have his say on the new addition to Croke Park menu with punters being charged €9.50 for a can. Music and sporting venues are under fire for the extortionate prices they are charging for alcoholic beverages, with Croke Park recently adding cans of Smirnoff Ice to their menu. Pic: TikTok/ Dave Duke The radio presenter hit out, saying it was 'the biggest robbery in Croke Park since Louth versus Meath in the 2010 Leinster final.' ''Oh young people are boring; they won't go out anymore.' No, they just can't f*****g afford almost €10 for a can that's 250ml. You're talking nearly €40 per litre of Smirnoff Ice which is taking the solid p**s,' Dave hit out. 'Save the environment, drink pints.' @mrdaveduke Lads, will someone shout stop? It's completely out of hand. #crokepark #inflation #concerts ♬ original sound – Dave Duke Social media users took to the comments to have their say, with many agreeing with Dave and sharing other shocking music venue prices. 'I was in the Aviva last night and two Smirnoff Ice and a bottle of water cost me €21,' one revealed, with another sharing: 'It was €9 at the Zach Bryan concert as well, but so were the plastic cups of beer.' A third offered: 'Malahide is €10.50.' A fourth person had the perfect solution, however, stating: 'You're at a match, sit down and watch it. Bring in a bottle of water with you. The reason they are expensive is because ye buy them.' It's a fair point, but others responded noting 'they're expensive because of greed.' Another person wrote: 'Don't buy it. Simple.'

July gardening jobs The Sun's Gardening Editor Veronica Lorraine, has shared the tasks you need to tackle this July in your garden. 1. Prune Wisteria You should only prune back Wisteria twice a year - and July - or mid summer - is one of those times. After flowering cut back long side shoots to around seven or six leaves. 2. Pinch out tomatoes Your tomatoes should be really picking up - so pinch out all the side shoots without flowers - and remove all the leaves that are shading the tomatoes - this will give them maximum light and energy. 3. Keep weeding Hand weeding and hoeing the surface of the soil will keep your weeds under check. 4. Feed Dahlias To keep Dahlias flowering until Autumn, you must keep feeding them weekly with a liquid fertliser high in potassium - which encourages blooms. 5. Keep deadheading plants Keep up with deadheading your bedding plants and perennials - so they keep coming back for the season. With roses make sure you're deadheading back to a set of five leaves, giving you the best chance of them flowering again. 6. Check on your pond If you're lucky enough to have a pond - make sure it's clear of algae, which can really bloom when the sun beats down. 7. Feed your lawn Whether that's with a liquid feed or granules. If you've chosen granules try to get them down before the rain comes, so they soak into the soil. 8. Tend to strawberry plants Cut the leaves off strawberry plants after you've picked them - leaving the crown untouched - which should help with next years fruit. 9. Sow extra seeds July weather is a great time to sow seeds as the warm soil and sunshine is great for germination. Try carrots, winter broccoli and other brassicas. 10. Move young plants into soil Get any young plants you've got left in the greenhouse - like courgettes - into the soil.
