Hi Kirby. Hi, Sarah. Welcome to Los Angeles. Welcome glamgelinos. We hope you stay a while.

Cute. That's cute. Hello, everyone. It is Kirby. I am solo this week for our Friday episode because good old wifey Saratan is in

Iceland. Or she was when we were recording this or I was. Wow. I'm so used to saying we. It's

hard to being an I. Here we go. So she's in Iceland and living her best life at the Blue Lagoon. I am

immensely jealous. But I'm happy to be here because we are talking about self-tanning and being

confident with self-taining because I think one thing that people really get stressed out about is getting an even tan and not

looking fake. And this episode is going to be all about this. I also just want to say if you are a

listener who has a deep or dark skin tone, don't feel like you have to turn this off. I have

been seeing this movement of sorts on Twitter

started by Tiara Willis, who goes by makeup for women of color. She's like a 20-year-old

aesthetician. If y'all are not familiar with her, get on it. I love following her on

Twitter especially. She's like the super expert of beauty on the platform. And she started talking about how

she utilized Bondi sands self-tannning to just even out her skin tone and give herself a little

bit of a glow. And she's like created a whole movement around this. So maybe you're thinking to

yourself, I just want to like even out some pigmentation I have on my body or my face.

The face is what is it for me.

My melasma, that's why I really am addicted to self-tannning because it really just helps conceal hyperpigmentation, dark spots, all that good stuff.

So if this is you where you're just like, I want to look like

I have a glow, I don't want to smell, I don't want to have streaks, I don't want to worry about it,

what do I do, how do I do this properly, this is the episode for you. I don't want to keep rambling.

I'm just going to jump right in because we have some voicemails and questions that you guys sent over Instagram.

Let's do it.
