Bondi Sands Light/Medium Self-Tanning Foam - Lightweight, Buildable Formula Gives a Sun-Kissed Glow for a Flawless Finish; 200 mL/7.04 Oz

Not usually one for leaving reviews but I felt I just had to with this product. As a very pale skinned person who doesn't tan but loves to be tanned, I have had a very love hate relationship with false tans. I've tried SO many I lost count but always ended up with a streaky or patchy finish, looking darker on certain areas and not taking to others at all, washing off in patches, that horrid fake tan smell, hard to apply, etc, etc...I gave up for a while and stuck to my old faithful instant tan but its such a ball a c h e having to reapply every day, expecially in summer.But wow...this false tan has literally changed my life! I exfoliated beforehand in the bath but pretty half heartedly, applied a little bit of moisturiser to my elbows, kness and ankles (dry areas) and used the Bondi Sands mitt to apply (amazing mitt as it is waterproof lined so no tan on your palms). The foam has a slight instant tint so you can see where it's going and it dries in instantly so you don't have to keep rubbing at it for ages and no streaks! It smells beautiful as you're applying, coconutty, and it's just so quick and easy.Straight away I felt I had a nice glow and after a few hours a darker colour had developed (as shown in the photo).The notorious false tan smell did develop a bit with the tan but not horribly so.The next morning I showered and the tan stayed fully in place.I am absolutely in love with this Bondi Sands product!Would fully recommend.

I’ve not used a self-tan for years because of how bad they used to be on the whole. This tan is fantastic. It’s a lovely light foam that goes on really easily. Use a mitt, that’s why they exist! If you put this on with your hands then off course you’re going to stain your hands. And of course there’s colour transfer while the tan is developing and before you wash it off - that’s a given, just don’t get dressed and sit on something dark until you do. Common sense. Once you’ve washed it off and moisturised it will then continue to develop into a lovely deep tan that lasted nearly a week (and that’s with showering every day). Great stuff! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

This product gives an even natural tan. It was easy to apply - you need to follow the instructions and you will get great results!

As a long time user of gradual self tans, this was a bit of a leap for me! The instructions were easy to follow, it have a nice colour and there was no transfer onto other materials.

I've never self tanned before and this has been great for giving me a little glow with no streaks. Best advice is exfoliating in the shower, dry with a tiny bit of moisturiser on your elbows and knees and then to work in small sections and really buff the tanner out before getting any more.

I have used many different self tans over the last 25 years and this is by far the best. I am blonde with freckles and pale skin and most self tanning products just make me look orange especially on my face, hands, elbows and knees. I have been using Dove gradual tan up until now but this is so much better! I'm glad I took a risk on it.It was really easy and quick to put on with the mitt and didn't run or streak when being applied. It dried quickly. It smells ok too. I left it on overnight and this morning I have a lovely light and natural looking tan!It does leave temporary stains on bedlinen which I hope will wash out(!) but if leaving on overnight I would wear a loose fitting long sleeve top and trousers to prevent transfer onto bed linen.

Love this fake tan! I have tried every type but this goes on so well, doesn’t smell and does not leave you streaky or orange.

Easily applied, doesn’t smell badly, develops a lovely golden brown colour immediately, but even after leaving it on for more than 8 hours, it washes off in the shower immediately with not much tan left sadly.I have to say, St.Tropez stays after showering with a good basic tan!Given that it is not cheap, it is overpriced for what it does.
