Great Color

Pros: Creates Even Tan, Dries Quickly, Easy To Apply, Natural Tan, Not Greasy

Cons: Uneven Fade

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Best Uses: Apply as necessary, Body

Bottom Line: recommended

Growing up in Orange County, I spent a lot of time at the beach working on my tan. But now that I'm older (and wiser), I know the harmful effects of the sun. So I finally turned to a sunless version of tanning. I love the color (and so does my boyfriend). I apply it every few days to keep a consistent color. It went on easy, but I noticed that it is fading unevenly in some places and it does have a slight chemical smell. It is not greasy at all. You just have to use a little bit because it's a creamy type lotion. I totally forgot that it's SPF 15, so that's a bonus, too.

leaves my skin dry

Pros: Not Greasy, Works Quickly

Cons: Uneven Fade, Uneven Tan, Unnatural Color

Describe Yourself: Budget Buyer

Best Uses: Body

Bottom Line: not recommended

I found this very drying for my skin which usually isn't dry. Also, as it faded, it left very small splotches and looked unnatural. The color overall wasn't too bad, but even after exfoliating, moisturizing, and using spare amounts, I still had trouble with it going on quite uneven around my knees and ankles. Using latex gloves to apply did help it go on smoothly and evenly everywhere else and helped avoid stained hands. I wouldn't buy it again.

Great for dry skin!!

Pros: Creates Even Tan, Easy To Apply, Natural Tan, Works Quickly

Cons: Uneven Fade

Describe Yourself: Budget Buyer

Best Uses: Body

Bottom Line: recommended

If you don't have dry skin, then use this product sparingly to avoid the greasy feeling. I have somewhat dry skin and I've never found this to feel too greasy. I get a very natural tan, though it seems to fade a bit unevenly. I love that it has sunscreen, and perhaps it's this ingredient that causes others to describe it greasy?? At least you've saved a step and protected your skin!! This is also the first product I've used that doesn't have that awful self-tanner smell!!

Great product no streaks

New favorite self-tanner

by ME Shopper [Verified Reviewer]

in Maine on 4/27/09

Pros: Creates Even Tan, Doesn't Clog Pores, Easy To Apply, Natural Tan, Works Quickly

Cons: Feels Greasy or Heavy

Best Uses: Body

Bottom Line: recommended

I've tried numerous other self-tanners and the benefits of this are: not bad smelling, no streaking, works quickly, very natural looking. Also, having SPF 15 sunscreen is a huge bonus - both a time and money saver. I used this prior to a late winter tropical vacation and kept using it while I was there as my sunscreen. It worked great for sun protection and I didn't look like a pale tourist! I agree that it's pretty greasy feeling and takes too long to dry, but that's my only complaint.

I've used this self-tanner for years

by Becky

Pros: Creates Even Tan, Doesn't Clog Pores, Easy To Apply, Natural Tan

Cons: Uneven Fade

Describe Yourself: Budget Buyer

Best Uses: Body, Daily Use

Bottom Line: recommended

To everyone who complains that this product is greasy and/or never dries: You're applying too much! I've never had that problem, nor have I felt that the resulting color looked fake or orange-y. I've received compliments from friends on my "tan" and they were surprised when I told them it's 100% fake. My dermatologist even asked me what brand I use because it looked so good.

Love the color, no streaks!
