Behind the beauty and into the bronze: Brooklyn Currie’s Tanning Journey
|Gold Coast Tanning Editorial Team
Meet Brooklyn
Meet Brooklyn Currie—a Gold Coast lash technician, Mecca team member, beauty lover and self-described people person.
Brooklyn spends her days helping other women feel confident, whether she is working with lashes, sharing skincare advice or helping someone prepare for a night out.
Despite working in the beauty industry, Brooklyn had always struggled to feel confident about her own naturally fair skin. With a Scottish background and skin that burns easily, fake tan had become part of her weekly routine.
Eventually, she became tired of the scrubbing, reapplication, patchiness and ongoing cost and decided to change her routine.

Start of Brooklyn's Tanning Journey
Before — December 2025
Brooklyn began with naturally very fair skin and was relying on fake tan as part of her weekly beauty routine.
Q&A With Brooklyn
What was your natural skin tone like before starting?
“I’ve always been super fair—proper Scottish pale. I either burn or go red. I never really developed that natural golden colour.”
How often were you using fake tan?
“Fake tan was just part of my weekly routine.”
Why did you want to change your routine?
“I was over the mess. Over the smell. Over the patchiness.”
“I love being social. Beach days. Nights out. Working in beauty. But fake tan always felt like maintenance.”
“I wanted something that developed naturally with my skin instead of sitting on top of it.”
WEEKLY ROUTINE
The Weekly Fake Tan Routine
Before beginning her Glow Trio Bundle, Brooklyn described fake tan as a fixed part of every week.
Thursday
Remove and exfoliate the previous fake tan.
Friday
Apply a fresh layer.
Before Events
Apply an additional layer when required.
Repeat
Begin the removal and reapplication process again the following week.
“Every Thursday night I’d scrub it off. Every Friday I’d reapply.”

- Approximately $30 per week
- Approximately $120 per month
- Approximately $360 over three months
- Regular removal and reapplication
- Possible streaks, patchiness and stained sheets
- Additional preparation before social events
“When I added it up, I realised I was spending over $300 every few months just to maintain colour.”
