  • Beautiful, Natural Color — Truly Worth the Price
Size: 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original
This product is amazing. I first bought it after seeing it recommended on TikTok, and even though it’s definitely on the pricier side, it has been completely worth it. The color is so natural and glowy, and it’s perfect for daily use or for maintaining a tan between mousse applications. The consistency is great, it dries quickly, and it doesn’t have that strong “self-tanner smell” most lotions have. It applies very evenly, and the only time I’ve ever gotten streaks was in the usual tricky spots — hands, feet, ankles, and wrists — which happens with every tanning product. As long as you blend those areas carefully and wash your hands afterward, it looks flawless. I use it all over my body and pair it with my L’Oréal tanning drops on my face, and together they genuinely make me look healthier and more refreshed, like I actually eat vegetables and drink water on purpose. Overall, I absolutely love this lotion and fully plan to keep buying it when I run out, but so far my first bottle has been long lasting. 10/10 — highly recommend. ... show more

  • The only self tanner you should buy!
Size: 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original
I do not like spray tans or any of these tanning lotions or foams but desperate times call for desperate measures 😂. They all smell horrible, look orange once they dry and are always splotchy/streaky. This is the BEST product I’ve used! Really light, goes on smoothly and evenly, is not streaky or orange and it doesn’t smell! I applied it in circular motions with a mitt. 10/10!!! ... show more

  • Great for a first time self-tanning experience
Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original - Mini
I'll start off by saying this is the first time I've tried any type of "self tanner" since I'm super impatient and I was always afraid of being orange and streaky. I was doing some research and came across this, and although it's a bit pricey I can confirm it is well worth it! After going through reviews I did end up purchasing a tanning mitt to apply and this goes on so easy! It is very thin compared to normal lotions so you don't need alot. After the first application I could see a noticeable difference and there were no streaks! I've used every other day for about the last week and I've stayed with a nice glow. It didn't turn streaky or wash off in the water and no stains on my towels! I lotion my knees/elbows first then just apply it with the mitt like normal lotion making sure I rub it in well. It does have a slight smell, but it's similar to how I've smelled after using a tanning bed so I don't mind it and my husband says it's hardly noticeable. This is a great product! ... show more

  • Works well
Size: 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original
I have very pale, sensitive skin and several skin allergies. Even sensitive skin lotions can break me out. It’s always a risk when I try something new. I’m also white as a ghost who does not tan. I go from white to lobster red and back to white if I’m in the sun. No residual tan. Since this product has decent ratings, I decided to give it a shot. I am (so far) pleasantly surprised. First, it does smell - just like every other self-tanner I’ve ever tried. So don’t buy it if you’re looking for fragrance-free. This isn’t it. It’s not an awful smell, but you’ll know you have self-tanner on. I can deal with it. Next, so far, no breakouts. Granted, I’m using it on my legs, which tend to be less sensitive, so YMMV. It goes on easily and if you rub it in, it dries quickly and completely. Another plus, and more rare than not. I’ve used it 3 days in a row, and any slight streaking has leveled out with repeated use. The look is not orange, but a nice bronze color - and not a strong color, which is what I wanted. I don’t want look like I’m using a bronzer. I just want to take the edge off of my blindingly-white skin. Overall, very pleased. ... show more

  • Works with some caveats
Size: 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original
Pros: Not a strong scent, easy to apply, not at all orange, incremental change Cons: Coverage is not even, does not last I bought this for a trip, because in my day-to-day I have been mistaken for a ghost. The color was great overall, and it didn’t stain or look unnatural. However, even with the applicator glove and putting lotion on areas like knees and elbows first, I wasn’t able to get an even coat. I was still happy with the results overall, until I went for a swim and immediately returned to my haunting hue. Think it would work if you could continuously apply it, but didn’t fit in my carry on. ... show more

  • Excellent for young or mature skin. Best self tanner and Silky texture.
Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original - Mini
I love this product. Have bought twice. Pricy but it lasts months and I use it on my face, neck and décolletage daily so I definitely get my moneys worth. It is so silky on my skin. Rich product. I use it in place of foundation so it looks natural on my mature skin. I am mid fifties.

  • Great quick tan
Size: 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original
Tan the next day!! Love this product for a quick tan. My family noticed I had color but not too much color. No too smelly either. My legs don't hold color as well but overall I was happy with it. Super lightweight lotion! Very happy with my purchase!

  • Horrible Streaking
Size: 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Original
This product is horrible. Bought it when The Butter (which I really like) was unavailable. This product is terribly streaky, where even when carefully applying to be even, suddenly it develops I’m patchy everywhere. Also, it takes more like 8-12 hours to develop, not the advertised 1-2. Especially bad for arms and torso. Does not scrub away easily to get rid of the horrible lines but still only lasts about 3 days on its own before being pale again. ... show more
