Natural Glow Self Tanner Body Lotion, Sunless Tanning, Medium to Deep Skin Tone, Daily Moisturizer with Coconut Oil, Vitamin E and Antioxidants, 7.5 Oz

I should probably start with the fact I have never used a self-tanner before. Ever. I admit, I used to find it funny when people would use them because they would always have a bit of an orange-tone to their skin and I thought of the cost of tanners compared to the free sunlight outside people could be using. However, recently I have been trying to take better care of my skin and that has resulted in me becoming splotchy in color because somehow my arms have become far darker than the rest of my body. I wanted to even out the tones without laying outside and causing damage. That being said, I wanted to try a gradual tanner to give me just enough color on my legs to match my arms. I purchased this gradual tanner based on the reviews as well as some YouTubers (such as LeighAnnSays) and thought this was the best match for me. I went with some of the advice of people who use tanners often and did dry brushing before I showered (highly suggest!), and then shaved and put on the lotion after I got out of the shower. I went light on the knees and didn't use the product on my arms at all because they're definitely tan enough. Within the first few hours I noticed my pale legs had a glow to them. This tanner does show that you will not be "tan" until about a week of daily use, but I noticed quite the difference after day two. It wasn't streaky, but it did get orangish around my toes, so be careful on that. While it smells nice when applying, it does have an off-putting odor after having it on 2-3 hours, which you should be aware of if you plan to go out after putting some on (I thought it was dirty hair, but it was definitely the moisturizer). I also noticed how much product I was using because my skin was soaking it up, but I fixed that by putting on some in-shower lotion before and then applying this after, you will use less product this way. It recommends using it daily, even twice a day if you want to be darker, but I only use it about every other day because I don't want to use of the bottle too fast. I bought the face moisturizer along with this and highly recommend it because it works super well. Pros: -Works as it says it does and gives a nice glow -Affordable option -Not streaky or too dark Cons: -Smells bad after a few hours

I went through the reviews before I purchased. I was really skeptical. I used to be a big tanning bed person until I grew up & realized how much I was damaging my skin. Then I switched to sunless tanners. Those can be annoying, having to wait hours and then it fades, gets blotchy etc. I thought this type of lotion would be worth a shot, so I purchased it. I tried it immediately that same night and I saw results literally overnight. Nothing too drastic, it just looked like I had some sun. I applied again on day 2, woke up on day 3 and the results were even better. I’m not sure if shave/exfoliate will cause issues but I will edit if need be once I exfoliate etc. the 2 CONS- I reeked of self tanner the next morning. I slept with it on, when I applied the lotion, it did not smell like that at all. It was immediately upon waking, I could smell that distinct self tanner smell. It’s not a deal breaking con, it doesn’t smell bad, it’s just a smell that annoys me and isn’t any different with the other products I have to sleep in to get color—maybe just a bit less. The 2nd CON.. I read some people were putting this on their face. Well, I purchased the face one as well, but that has spf in it... I’m not outdoors so I used the body lotion on my face. Let me just make it known not many things make my face react... well, I woke up day 2 with a rash of bumps.. that’s how my skin breaks out. I strongly suggest not putting this on your face... I have dry skin, sometimes combo, this stuff did not sit well with my face. I will be using the one made for the face for now on, on my face. I wish they had a PM face gradual tan... without the spf- SPF can clog pores. Also, I wish they had this lotion for the body with SPF.. for days I’m out in the sun. I like to have a choice in general whether or not I want to have spf on my skin—hope they look into doing something like that sometime soon because I love these lotions! EDIT- about 5-6 months later. I just ordered another bottle (this time I didn’t get the lotion tube bottle, I got the tall bottle w/ the pump). IF YOU USE MAKEUP WIPES, be mindful of where you’re wiping. i’m left with a really tan chest & my makeup wipes seem to be taking off the color - whereas my face wash wasn’t leaving such a drastic difference. i’ve been back at work now for the last 5-6 months so the days i work, i’ve had to use makeup wipes to take off the makeup - while it’s only 3-4 days a week, it’s definitely caused an issue. if you don’t have to use makeup wipes, it’s a lot better with the consistency from your face to your neck. :)

I have used this product before years ago and totally forgot about till a friend let me use cause I needed lotion so I ordered some myself to test it out. I ordered medium tan. I have fair to medium skin tone. The product is good and it does work. For myself I saw a slight color change after a days use. When you use it consistently the color builds. I like that it works as both a tanner and lotion. The only thing I did not like about this product is that you kind of have to use a lot because the lotion is more on the thick side so the bottle goes quickly. I would suggest buying at least two if you are wanting to keep the color up consistently. Overall the product works great and I would buy this again.

Second time I have ordered this and it is excellent! It can be used everyday - no horrible smell and no trace left on clothes or bed sheets. Highly recommend!

The product give the sun effect... Amazing

Fantastic tanning lotion, honestly best in the market, gives nice natural tan, I’m quite pale and don’t use sunbeds and everyone thinks I do.:) don’t leave marks on clothes or when comes off don’t make you look patchy. Love it, very easy to use.

初めてセルフタンニングの商品を使いましたが、塗るコツを掴めば良い感じに仕上がると思います！ 6時間ほどで色が変わり、私的にはほんの少し黄色&オレンジ気味かなと思いましたが、職場の人からは自然だよと言われました。 私がこの商品を使ってみて重要だと感じた点は、塗るときに円を描くように塗ること、足の甲や体の関節部分は薄めに塗らないと色が濃く目立つこと、しっかり乾ききるまで服を着ないことです。 気になった点は、初めは良い香りで時間が経つと独特な匂いに変わること、下着が触れる部分や手の甲は色落ちが多少早いことです。 1度目は多少のムラは避けれない気がします。出来れば完全にオフの日にゆったり時間を使ってまんべんなく塗り、ムラになってたら2度目でカバーすれば大丈夫だと思いました。

This product is lovely I needed to replace the one for Fair skin but it was out of stock so tried Medium which although darker is perfectly acceptable and might even prefer it once I have a little natural colour. One good point also is that it does not stain sheets like other self tanning products. Highly recommended.
