As trendy as vampires may be, I personally have no interest in looking like one. But my skin has gotten to such a pale point that I was literally glowing like a Cullen in all the pictures I took this weekend.

For an instant fix this morning, I tried out a sample of Antidote Skincare‘s All Season Glow self-tanning lotion that The Self Tanning Queen recently sent me. I was pleasantly surprised by the smell—or lack there of. While there’s a slight fresh laundry scent, there’s no lingering chemical fumes that cause co-workers to shoot you dirty looks during a meeting (it’s happened to me before and trust, its extremely embarrassing).

The green color is a little frightening but it produces a subtle, natural looking glow that hasn’t rubbed off on my clothing. Now all I need is a bigger bottle so I can remain vampire free for the rest of winter.
