    BRILLIANT SERVICE!!!

    This is a present for my frontline working niece so I haven’t tried it, but I just want to leave a review to thank Pestle & Mortar for their attention to detail in regard to my order. They’ve made up for a shocking courier service by going above and beyond to ensure that the order was delivered. Thank you so much, what a brilliant team to deal with. Regardless of the order size the attention, response and follow-up has been second to none. Well done, and thanks again!!

    THRILLED WITH THE RESULTS

    THANK YOU!

    I have been a fan of Pestle & Mortar since I was gifted the Serum & Moisturiser a few years ago. I was so excited when they asked me to try the new product before it launched. I love tan!!! I wear it daily. However, I normally avoid my face and wear a darker foundation. I have found in the past that any tanning products I have put on my face don’t work. They go patchy , they are too dark for my skin , they clog my pores.

    This is the HOLY GRAIL of face tan!

    WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS!

    I was so happy when the team reached out to me to test and try their new products. I was a little surprised when they said it was a tanning product. I definitely wasn’t expecting that from them. To be 100% honest I am not a massive tan person but said I would try it anyway and I could not be happier that I did.

    I loved it. On first application, I used 2 x drops. It was a subtle sun-kissed glow but I wanted a little darker so I did 4. It came out so even. It didn’t look like I even had tan. It looked so natural , I loved it.

    WOW

    All I can is WOW. These are unbelievable. I was lucky enough to try these out a few weeks prior to launch and I have to say I am obsessed

    I have tried numerous face tans and they have always dried out my skin or caused me to break out in spots but not this one. It left my skin feeling so soft! With a lovely golden glow.

    I use 4 drops at the start and then every second night I use two drops (as a top-up)

    I find I don’t need to wear makeup with this product but on the rare occasion when I do, I need less makeup and my makeup just looks better.

    Also, can we talk about the size – It’s 30ml and literally lasts forever.

    I can tell you honestly, you will not regret purchasing this product.
