Description

Does it stain clothes or bedsheets? Our product is pigmented, if it gets on clothes, towels, or swimsuits, it may leave a mark—but don’t worry, it washes right out! Does it develop into a deeper tan over time? Yes, Carroten, with its main ingredient beta-carotene from carrots, can help develop a deeper tan over time when used with sun exposure. What is the difference between gold shimmer and intensive? Both products give the same tanning benefits. The difference is the gold shimmer has shimmering pearls to provide a subtle shimmer effect while intensive has no shimmer. Do I need to wear SPF YES! It is recommended to always apply SPF BEFORE applying Carroten, SPF level depends on personal preference and skin type. Is this product a self-tanner? No, Carroten Tanning Gel is not a self-tanner. It is a tanning accelerator designed to enhance your natural tan when exposed to the sun.

  • Carroten tanning gel...
Style: Shimmer Gel
I bought this because of the videos ive seen and reviews ive read and I must say it does work... I wasnt out a full 2 hours and got burnt and I dont usually burn like that... I will add I didn't use sunscreen either... the gel itself is almost like a balm in consistency its thin but thick if that makes sense and I did not use a lot of it... ... show more

  • works perfectly better than anything else
Style: Shimmer Gel
If I shared a picture, your mind would be blown by how perfectly this works. I've been using this product for over 4 years, and this is the fifth bottle I've bought. I've also used the orange one, but I like this one better. It gives your skin a beautiful glow, and when you see your body underwater, it looks so shiny and gorgeous. ... show more

  • A few shades darker but not
Style: Shimmer Gel
So why I gave it three stars not 5. Because I seen all over that in 2 hrs or so in the sun you are supposed to get dark as can be like 15 shades darker. You DO get some shades darker but I’d say maybe 3 shades not drastic as it it says. I think you’d have to use it for a full day or 5 to get as dark as they show. I love the smell and I do like the shimmer. Also, you might want to know that you need to rub it in or you will have lines. It also gives your hands a little reddish tint. ... show more

  • Great product!!! Love it.
Style: Shimmer Gel
I absolutely love using this when I tan outside. It works better than anything I’ve tried before and that’s a lot. It stays on well. I like to sit in a chair next to the pool and pour cups of water on me when I get hot. Doesn’t have a bad smile when putting it on., nor does it have a bad smell after showering. All around it’s a fantastic product. ... show more

  • Works really well—just use a thin layer
Style: Shimmer Gel
This stuff definitely works, and I’ve been really happy with it so far. It actually does what it claims. I’ve been using it to help even out my runner’s tan lines (legs vs. upper body), and it’s been really effective. Smells nice and feels good on the skin. Not overpowering, and it applies smoothly. Use a thin layer. This is important—if you put too much on, it can feel greasy and doesn’t work as well. A light layer gives much better results. Prep matters. I’ve had the best results applying it to clean, gently exfoliated skin. Be mindful where you use it. I’d personally avoid areas like shoulders, upper back, and chest if you’re going to be in the sun for a while. It works REALLY well, and those areas already get a lot of exposure, so you’re more likely to burn. Best for: Evening out tan lines Boosting color on areas that don’t tan as easily People who want a non-heavy tanning product Not ideal for: Heavy application (can get greasy) High-exposure areas if you’re prone to burning Bottom line: Works great, smells good, and gives noticeable results—just use it sparingly and be mindful of sun exposure. ... show more
