    Finding Exante Ordering Frustrating

    Does anybody else find the pricing on Exante products confusing and frustrating when making large orders? I've been trying to order my second big bulk order for a week or so now, but with so many different offers that change so rapidly, each time I try I never quite feel like I'm getting the...

    I think the cut and the length on the red one is more flattering, but the blue one by no means looks awful and you definitely could wear it if you wanted to :) Perhaps a bit of fake tan with the blue would also be good, as it's such a pale colour. I quite like the wash off bronzers in the winter...
