Let me tell you, I have a crazy self tanner history (as many of us do) and a few years ago I tried L'oreal's Gradual Tanner and it turned me TANGERINE ORANGE. I swore I would stay away from L'oreal products. From then on, I became obsessed with finding the perfect self tanner (for me anyways). What I want (and many others) from a self tanner is first THE COLOR. It HAS to be natural. Second is the staying power, I exercise and play sports a lot so It has to be able to stay. And thirdly, no smell. That's just a dead giveaway. So I finally found after many drugstore self tanners & beauty shop self tanners, my favorite mainly because of the color, which was Tomas Total Tan from [@] (identical to Fake Bake). The only thing I HATED about it was that after I exercised it would come off so easily! Also, it turned my chest like a funky green color, which was not attractive. I guess it didn't react well with my sweat. So then I was on a hunt AGAIN to find a GOOD self tanner.I read so many reviews on self tanners on Youtube and sites like these. I started gravitating towards the L'oreal line. I was hearing so many positive things about it and I was like chances are, it's as good as people say because there's not that many negative reviews. So I went to Walmart, picked up the Gelee in Medium Natural Tan, and the Luminous Bronzer. I tried the Medium Natural first.First, in the bottle it looks tinted orange, but in fact it is not. Its almost a clear gel, which may be a problem for beginners, but I found it was VERY easy to rub in and apply, but it's kind of a lie when they say quick dry. But I've found ways around that such as doing it in light layers, or mixing my regualr body lotion with it. It also says color developes in an hour, I beleieve it does, but just not on ME. It takes me a few coats to get a nice bronze color. The color is FABULOUS. I found that even though its not tinted, if I apply at night and take a shower in the morning, the color looks better. Excess buildup of DHA may look a little more orange. EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE before putting this on! A MUST! Also, you HAVE to moisturize! It will help the tan last longer and also help the color, which is a beautiful BRONZE- NO ORANGE color. It has the most brown/bronze undertones I've seen in any self tanner. The smell is almost non-existent, and really is after your first shower. I've done a whole weeks worth of two hour workouts and volleyball with this on and IT STAYED! I was SO surprised! It was GREAT! Didn't turn me any funky colors either! So overall this self tanner is GREAT! And CHEAP! And it's so easy to find because they sell it at like EVERY drugstore. BEST drugstore self tanner there is. Period. And THE BEST I'VE EVER USED! When I was standing next to all my girls, I was the same exact shade of tan as them. (a few notes: I'm not a fair-skinned girl in summer, I'm medium with golden undertones, so I can't speak for the fair-skinned, but I would try this product anyways! Also, I have yet to dry Medium Deep, but I'm pretty satisfied with this color.) Also ladies, this is VERY IMPORTANT. Do NOT use a body lotion that has Mineral Oil (Petrolum), Stearic Acid, or Triethanolamine. They do not react with DHA well (high pH levels). They WILL give you a orange glow or tint. This even applies if it's IN your self tanner. Find an all natural body lotion.

You have to be so careful. My legs are currently streaked and orange colored (after using it about 4 times-I didn't want to judge prematurely). My arms look pretty good after using it- but they were tan to begin with. This also fades unevenly, so some parts of my legs, stomach, and shoulders are still tan while others are not. It makes me look like I have a skin condition. Another gripe is that it takes awhile to dry. I want a natural looking tan so I might try a spray formula-at least it's safer for my skin than laying out.

Comments about L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Gelee, Medium Natural, 5 fl oz: I've been using this sunless tanner for over 8 years. It's the best I've ever found, and affordable. It might be a little orange or dark on lighter skin tones, but works really well with my olive skin. Easy to apply, decent smell, dries pretty quickly. I recommend exfoliating your body before use to get the best results. Also do multiple light coats daily until you reach your desired shade, then do once or twice a week to maintain. MAKE SURE YOU WASH YOUR HANDS thourougly - or else you'll be left with orange hands which can be pretty embarrassing. Overall I've had very few problems with it, especially after you get used to using it correctly. I definitely recommend - at least to those with medium skin tones.

Comments about L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Gelee, Medium Natural, 5 fl oz: I use this about 10 minutes after I get out of the shower every other day. It goes on quick and slippy-smooth and even if I am a little distracted or careless, I don't get dark splotches like I have with other self-tanning lotions or gelees. I would dare to call it odor-free, or at least hardly noticeable. I prefer this to other products that are up to twice as pricy. Three different people have told me "Nice tan!" since I started using this. My new favorite. Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Was this review helpful?

Comments about L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Gelee, Medium Natural, 5 fl oz: ok so as some people have said, it is easier to apply this self tanner when it is mixed in with a lotion. BUT the lotion has to contain absolutely NO mineral oil. so i went on the look out for one that wasn't too expensive but wasn't super cheap and probable to fail. then i came across Jergens Naturals Daily Moisturizer in Hydrate! why i didn't think of searching in more natural/organic products, i don't know. just mix equal parts of lotion and gel in a bowl and then rub it on! its that simple! let it dry and you'll be perfectly moisturized and tan. the best part is the lotion is sold right here on drugstore.com! it's a must have add-on to this product!!!
