Fake a Tan with Silver Jewelry

Did you know that you fake a sun kissed tan simply by selecting the right jewelry? It's true. Most of us end up a getting a little “pale” as we muddle through the winter months. However, there is a wonderful and quick way to ensure that your skin looks vibrant and bright, even during all the long winter months.

Many people find themselves turning to tanning salons, spray on chemical tans, and creams and lotions that promise to darken the skin without exposure to the sun, but there is an easier way. The best way to fake a sunny complexion when the weather is cold, cloudy, and precipitation levels are above average, is to select the right tone of jewelry. Wearing a brightly colored metal, like silver, is the best way to give your skin tone a pop and a glow even when you're feeling particularly vulnerable to the winter blues.

In fact, sterling silver jewelry is the number one metal jewelry of choice for people who are seeking pieces that will complement any skin tone. The crisp cool color of the metal looks great on virtually any skin tone and what’s more is the fact that the contrast between the warm tones of the skin and a cool tone of the silver will create the illusion of a sun kissed glow all year round.

If it is your goal to maintain a look that will help you to stand out as you attend any given event, consider wearing striking silver jewelry against your bare skin. The contrast will give you the look and feel of a healthy glow even if you haven't been out in the sun for weeks.

Remember, a light tan looks healthy, but spending too much time in the sun can be dangerous to your skin and your health. Going to extreme measures simply to look as though you spend your weekends on a sandy beach can end up costing you in the long run. But, if you can fake the look of a golden tan simply by choosing and wearing the right silver jewelry, why wouldn't you?
