Lindsay Lohan is having more success with her commercial ventures than with her flagging film career. Her line of overpriced leggings sold surprisingly well, and she told E! Online in a much-mocked tweaked out red carpet interview that she’s planning to put out a bizarre line of thinly shaved diamond jewelry and lend her tarnished name to a spray tan company.
Lindsay apparently has a friendship with the spray tan maker and in a statement given to People Magazine she sounds genuinely enthused about the product. As someone who is sensitive to chemicals, I appreciate how she emphasizes that it’s mostly natural. The dirty-looking promotional photo of Lohan with giant pupils kind of ruins it for me, though. It’s not safe to put too many chemicals and crap on your skin, but if Lohan’s behavior is any indication she has no qualms about putting the stuff in her body:
You might have to wait for the spring launch of Lindsay Lohan’s much-anticipated spray tan line, but the actress is giving PEOPLE.com readers an exclusive sneak peek at one of Sevin Nyne’s sexiest campaign images. The star, who last year branched out from acting with a successful line of leggings, is known for her ever-present bronze glow, which she shows off to full effect in the ad. And the quest for a perfect fake bake is precisely what led her to create her own. “As much as I love the sun,” she says, “it is so bad for your skin. I have tried every product on the market and never found something that I loved.” Until, that is, she met spray tanner Lorit Simon. “She had an amazing tanning formula that over the years we continued to perfect,” Lindsay reveals of the partnership. “It was important to me to have a natural product that didn’t have a lot of dyes and chemicals. Our product has goji berry extract which has antioxidant properties, it has a natural golden color, it doesn’t streak and smells delicious — not like a typical tanning product.” The $35 spray will become available exclusively in Sephora stores on the first of May

People doesn’t accept comments on their main site, but their specialty sections like Style Watch and TV Watch allow comments. Many commenters are pointing out on People that Lindsay doesn’t have any freckles in the ad so it’s hard to tell how well the spray tan works because her freckles are clearly Photoshopped out. Others say that she’s pretty much orange all the time and has gone out with streaks on her hands so it’s not like she’s an ideal spokesperson for a spray tan. She is decent at getting publicity for things, although it usually involves making a spectacle of herself while getting in some kind of public feud with a family member, another celebrity, or her partner.
Lindsay and her longterm girlfriend, Samantha Ronson, are still hanging in there despite their volatile relationship. TMZ reports that Samantha ditched Lindsay at a club in Vegas and Lindsay ran out screaming “did she f’ing leave?” Chill out, Lindsay, and get a spray tan. It will keep you out of trouble for 15 minutes and maybe you’ll get a better lease on life to go along with that healthy orange glow.
Is the corner of her nostril a little red or am I seeing things??
Yes, folks – you too can look like an Oompa Loompa, just like Lindsay!
I would love to see the before picture.
there is no way that that is a direct unedited comment from Lohan. it is far too coherent.
vale, i see it too. guess she snorted too much coke before the picture!
You know what else is “so bad” for your skin?
Crystal Meth.
I think “Get Lindsay Lohan’s dirty drugged look” should be their marketing campain.
It keeps cathing my eye. lol
She looks strangely attractive, desperate, and druggy at the same time. Amazing!
the sad thing, i’m sure some fool will buy this crap just b/c lindsay is endorsing it.
hope they turn just as orange and dirty faced as she is
the only thing not photoshopped in the picture is the backdrop.
She looks disgusting…:-/
Um… who exactly was anticipating this?
What’s so wrong with embracing one’s natural skintone? Is there some horrible stigma attached to being pale that I don’t know about?
