Customer Reviews

This is the ONE, Ladies4
My search for the best self-tanner, one that leaves skin looking sun-kissed without an orange hue, has lead me to this product. I tried a countless # of self-tanners, from drugstore brands to pricey high-end ones, and none compared to the results I received with this product. This leaves skin with a natural looking tan, a color that I would achieve by spending hours out in the sun (I am olive complexed). I initially used this 3 nights in a row (apply before bedtime) to achieve my desired color and have been re-applying twice weekly to maintain. There are 2 products that are "recommended" that you use before applying the bronzant that I didn't bother wasting my $ on since this is pricey enough (hence the 4 stars).

The BEST self tanner5
I have been using this tanner for probably 5 years now. I have tried probably 15 different brands & this is by far the best. With regards to streaking, you have to rub the lotion in. I run the water in the sink while applying & wet my feet, ankles & knees as well as anywhere where I want to feather out the lotion.

The lotion is tinted with a greenish base to offset the orange color that tends to occur with self tanner giving a very natural color. This tinting will wash off as would any lotion. You'll notice it because it is tinted.

In several applications you will have a medium to dark tan depending on your skin color.

Dark, but streaky3
The first morning, after I applied the bronzer, most of it washed off and my legs were streaked. I sent an email to the company explaining my situation and asked for suggestions to correct whatever I did wrong. They were extremely prompt in responding and I attempted the application a 2nd time. Even though a majority of the lotion washed off in the shower, I was significantly darker. I repeated the application a 3rd night and my tan was quite noticeable and very dark(exactly what I wanted!). My main problem was the streakiness. My legs never recovered from the first night and I was unable to cover up the lighter spots. The streaks just became more noticeable after each application. Also, my feet and hands were darker than every other part of my body! Be careful with these areas. Even though I loved the dark tan I obtained, the lengthy/difficult application process along with the streakiness became too much to deal with after only 4 days.
