Sun Laboratories Self Tanner Instant Ultra Dark 8 fl oz, Sunless Tanning Lotion and Self Bronzer | Sunless Bronzing Cream | Instant, Quick-Drying, Streak-Free, Perfect For Fair To Medium Skin Tones

This really is the only tanning lotion I would ever use and ever recommend! I do mix mine with body lotion to have it last longer in gradual shades, and its beautiful. I do wish the price would be more genuine, as it is cheaper on the actual website. And really dissappointed as the last 2 times I tried ordering it here it was out of stock and I had to be refunded. I’m an amazon girl, so don’t enjoy ordering off of other websites. But please, if you’re out of stock, update your status!

Best self tanner on the market. No strong smell or the “self tan” smell best natural color and dark. I’m pale & blonde and people always compliment me on color. They think it’s a natural tan Lol. The tint does run in the water though but I don’t swim! And it’s easy to re apply- use gloves and it’s perfect.

Bon produit liquide pratique et ne sent pas le self tan! Attendre 10min avant de s'habiller à recommander pour un bronzage foncé

I love this stuff. Best drugstore brand i've personally found is Loreal Sublime Bronze but if you're willing to spend a little more, I would HIGHLY recommend this stuff. It's the only one that hasn't turned me Oompa Loompa orange or turned me a sickly yellow color like my liver is failing. I am EXTREMELY pale, i'm talkin color of a sheet of paper, glow-in-the-dark pale. This isn't too dark on me, so I guarantee it won't be too dark for you. Don't be scared of the "Ultra Dark" description. The lotion comes out as a chocolate brown color. This is simply to help make application easier. You can see where it's going so you don't miss any spots. Super helpful, especially if you're new to sunless tanners. It has a light cherry almond smell that fades and does have that typical sunless tanner smell, but it's not overbearing and goes away after you shower (you're gonna have that smell no matter what sunless tanning method you use because that is the smell of the chemical used in these to turn your skin a color; its unavoidable). It will slightly stain clothes/sheets until you shower off the color guide. This will come out in the wash and isn't permanant. Just wear something you don't care about until you take a shower and if you apply it immediately before you go out, don't wear a light color and make sure rain isn't in the forecast because the color guide will run off of you and cause streaks. The color you are as the "tan" develops is going to be darker than the final result. If you feel you're too dark, just wait, it'll be lighter after your shower. If you like the color, you'll have to do a few more applications until it's the color you will be post-shower. Here's some tips for first time sunless tanners: 1. Exfoliate super well before your first application to get off all dead skin and make your skin smooth for an even application. 2. Work quickly and on one section of your body at a time. Make sure you rub in very well. 3. Coat rough areas (tops of feet/ankles, wrists, knees, elbows, wrists, and knuckles) with a light lotion or body oil and let sink in for a few mins before you start. This will help from too much color depositiong in these areas. 4. Pick yourself up a box of disposable gloves at the store. This will keep your palms from getting dyed which WILL happen if they're not used and good luck trying to get that off. The palms will soak up the color like no other area. 5. Try not to exfoliate too much after your first application because you will scrub off the top layer of skin which is the layer the tanner dyes, so you'll essentially scrub off your work. 6. Apply a light lotion everyday to help maintain the "tan," but make sure your lotion doesn't have AHA's in it that will exfoliate your skin and take the color away. I do 3 consecutive applications to get my desired color and then just reapply as needed after that. When I start to notice uneven patches, I completely scrub everything off and start over to avoid uneven color. It sounds like alot of work but it really doesn't take much more time than putting on regular body lotion after you get the hang of it and it saves your skin from looking like a leather handbag somewhere down the line.

I was really happy with this product, one the smell was very faint and it actually smells good if you do smell it but it’s not strong like the other tanning lotions you smell kind of stinky, not this one. Also, I you smell kind of stinky, not this one. Also, I was glad that it actually gave me a uniform tan which I was happy about, without any blotchy spots. I was satisfied with this lotion, because I’ve tried a lot of tanning lotions before and a lot of them I was not happy with.
