Pippa Middleton Sparks Uptick in Self Tanner Sales

Pippa+Middleton in Prince William and Kate Middleton Leave Westminster Abbey

During the royal wedding, all eyes were supposed to be on Kate Middleton. But people were really looking at her younger sister, Pippa Middleton, and Pippa's tan.

The Daily Mail reports that, since the wedding, sales of self-tanner at British department store Debenhams has risen 200-percent over sales in the same month last year. Clearly pale skin is no longer in and a royal glow is de rigueur. Hopefully, people stick to tan in a can, rather than tanning booths. A golden glow is gorgeous, but skin cancer isn't!

We knew the Middleton sisters had power over what clothes people bought, but who knew they'd influence tanning habits as well!
