Beauty Review: Michael Kors Sun Collection

By Amy Havins @dallaswardrobe

Summer is by far my favorite season. I love being outside and I love the sunshine. If I could lay by the pool or beach all day everyday I would. A couple of weeks ago I was in Miami with some girlfriends. While I was excited about finally getting to the beach I was not looking forward to dealing with the first of summers sun. I had gotten some of the new Michael Kors Sun products a couple of months ago and the second I opened the box & saw the gold (amazing) packaging I knew Miami would be the perfect place to test all of these babies out.

Well fast forward to a week with two girlfriends and only one bottle of each product….well let’s just say I need to order more because we used them all the ENTIRE week. Can’t wait to use the Michael Kors Sun Collection products the rest of the summer!

  • Liquitan Self Tanner: I am not a big ‘self tanner’ kind of girl so I was a little apprehensive to just put this all on my legs but I did it anyways. You guys, I was not disappointed at all. Not only does it go on very smooth and evenly (make sure to shave your legs before) it doesn’t look ‘orange’ at all. It is the perfect product if you need that instant sun-kissed gratification and looks so natural. Bonus: it doesn’t smell like you have a fake tan (if that makes sense), it smells really fresh!
  • Liquid Shimmer Dry Oil Spray: This is one of my favorite products EVER. I took it to Miami a couple a weeks ago to give it the first official test and it really is magical. The dry oil spray makes your skin look smooth, silky and just glow. It has a little shimmer (not too much) and makes you look and feel like a goddess! I used it after I got out of the pool and even before we went to dinner at night. It goes on really easily & smells wonderful.
  • After Sun Gelee: Since it is the time of year where we all see the first of summers sun this product is necessary. Although I do put on sunscreen, like every normal person I still get burned so this after sun gelee really came in handy. I’ve never been a fan of aloe vera because of how goopy it can be so I was apprehensive to use this. Well I was not disappointed. This after sun gelee really soothed my sunburned skin giving it cool hydration and also moisturized my skin. Oh, and don’t even get me started on how amazing it smells!
  • After Sun Lip Balm: Yes, this is chap stick or lip moisturizer or whatever you want to call it. I would be lying if I said it was the greatest thing I had ever used because honestly it’s pretty similar to something you can buy at the drug store. BUT one thing that makes it stand out is the really cool packaging. So if you want really cool looking lip balm (like me) you for sure need this!
