Rain or shine, Ruth Langsford isn’t relying on the sun to ensure she looks like she’s just been back from holiday! The 65-year-old Loose Women star uses a secret weapon to keep herself looking tan year round – and she’s just revealed it to her fans (including us).
I spotted Ruth’s rosewater-infused beauty must-have on one of her Instagram Stories, where the TV presenter spoke of her love of the glow-getting product, saying: “This brilliant hydrating tan mist, I’ve been using it a lot and I love it. You just do a little spritz and it develops during the day. It’s really nice.”
The “really nice” spritz in question? Self Glow By James Read Sunblush Hydrating Tan Mist, £39 / $45.50. Essentially, the tan mist is formulated to enhance your natural glow with a buildable tan as it also hydrates and plumps. There’s a key ingredient – Rosa Damascena Flower Water – which helps keep your skin moisturised as you develop a subtle and healthy sun-kissed glow.

After thanking the self-tan guru, she explained during the clip: “We were talking the other day and I asked, ‘Do you do a gradual tan moisturiser? And he said, ‘Yeah’ and he sent me some.” (If you’d like to shop Ruth’s soon-to-be new favourite for yourself, it’s the Endless Summer Gradual Tan Moisturiser, £44 from the Self Glow line – you’re welcome!)

Our roster already includes Mrs Hinch’s favourite drugstore face tanning drops and the tanning wipes Claudia Winkleman swears by to look like she’s ‘been to Capri for the weekend’.
Not to mention that Cat Deeley has also seen the benefits of James Read’s line. This Morning makeup artist Lindsay Bown recently told us the brand’s Sun Bright tan drops are among the products she uses for Cat’s on-screen look.
What verified shoppers say about Ruth’s favourite tanning mist
© Instagram / ruthlangsfordRuth’s not the only big fan of the James Read mist. One shopper who recommends it for “hydrating” and to “reduce dullness” said: “I’m so glad this product has been introduced to my life. The fragrance of this mist is absolutely divine, it has a lovely rose scent that isn’t over powering. It really does make you glow, it’s easy to apply and applies so evenly, definitely looking the best version of myself with this!”
One caveat, you may want to apply by spraying on a makeup brush as opposed to applying it directly, depending on your skin type. As another shopper, who gave the mist five stars, explained: “It leaves a subtle glow which is all I want from a face self tan – and actually smells lovely with a subtle rose scent. I apply by misting on brush and spreading on face as I don’t get even results misting directly on face.”
