Finding a good fake tan can feel overwhelming to invest and to find the perfect glow as there are hundreds to choose from on the market. However, TV presenter Holly, 44, has now shared her easy quick fix product she swears by to keep her legs bronzed all summer as she admitted she 'hates fake tan'.

I tried the viral £3.49 Lidl tan as a pale girlie – it doesn't smell, looks 10/10 & I was amazed by how long it lasted
IT'S the tan that's taken the internet by storm - but is the viral Lidl tanning mousse really worth the hype? According to one beauty buff, the answer is yes. 2 2 The discount supermarket sent shoppers into a frenzy after launching their very own fake tan just in time for summer - and compared to cult favourites, Lidl's Marbella Glow is significantly cheaper. While other viral brands retail around the £10 mark, the German store's version costs just £4.49. Thrifty beauty buffs can choose the vegan-friendly tan in three shades - Medium, Extra Dark and Ultra Dark. Bargain-mad TikToker, only known as @ kittsandpieces on the platform, went for the latter option, sharing her honest thoughts online. The PhD student, who dubbed herself a '' pale girlie '', started the process by showering and ensuring her skin was moisturised before applying the bronzing mousse. To ensure the tan doesn't stick to particularly dry areas, such as elbows and knees, the blonde stunner used Ultra-Repairing Soothing Balm by La Roche-Posay. The balm, which she claimed was ''a game-changer'', is currently on offer on Amazon for around £8, and for best results, the TikToker left it on for 20 to 30 minutes before applying the tan. After covering herself in the dark mousse, the Lidl shopper was pleasantly surprised at how quickly the tan dried. Raving about the wallet-friendly buy, she said in the video: ''No sticky feeling going to bed and no bad tan smell either.'' The following morning, the TikToker hopped into the shower, rinsed off the tan and was amazed by the results. Katie Price moans 'oh my god I'm so ugly' as she shows off BALD eyelids after removing fake lashes and make-up Sporting a gorgeous glow which made her look like as if she's just returned from a sunny holiday, the student said: ''10/10 for me.'' The best part? According to the shopper, the sun-kissed glow lasts almost a week too. ''I find I get a solid 4/5 days out of it with showers and all, it's even survived my swimming.''

That's why Fabulous tested a number of fake tans which cost less than £10.. *If you click on a link in this boxout we will earn affiliate revenue 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." Mixed reviews But while the money-smart shopper was raving about the bargain buy, not everyone had the best reviews. ''Yes it's good but be careful !! heard of horror stories from this tan especially firsthand ended up in a&e with a swollen face,'' wrote one of the 36k viewers. Another chimed in: ''it does smell, lovely red undertone, doesn't last long.'' Someone else said: ''I did it today and planing to wash it in the morning.
