I was so excited to finally order this product, I had read such great reviews I had to try it!! I used one coat and very little color showed up, I was extremely disappointed..I think I need to apply three nights in a row to acheive a darker tan, for me that seems pretty costly considering it is pretty pricey..I think I am going to try it again because it is very easy to apply, dries fast and you can dress almost immediatley, great fresh scent, my only drawback is the amount of times needed to apply before achieving a brown color...Coopertone dark vanishing tint(effortless) gives alot more color with one coat.minus the horrible fading..

I have tried almost every self tanner out there (except for St. Tropez) and I love this stuff! The color is dark, believable and fast! It doesn't really have that "self-tanner smell" either. I'm very pleased with this product.

The best sunless tanner on the market. It is a beautiful color and forgiving in the application. A must try for anyone that uses sunless tanners.

This is the only self tanner that has ever turned me big bird yellow. Many people have good experiences with it but not me. It is long lasting and easy to apply though. Just be careful if your undertones are not right for this product. I naturally tan a very red brown and this is very golden/yellow.

This is wonderful! This is by far the best color I've ever experience with a self-tanner...looks exactly like my natural tan. The stain is great too-gives you some subtle color while waiting for your "tan" to develop, and is a great guide to prevent the streakies! Application is easy (I used the sponge...prefer my hands, but can never seem to do it w/o getting the SPOTS!), and you can dress almost immediately afterwards (though I wouldn't wear white). My only complaint is that it doesn't last as long as I'd like so I may try the lotion, but for the color, it's worth it! One of the best features is the lack of STINK...it smells faintly of fresh bananas, but hours later you don't smell like one big test-tube of DHA...I could hardly detect it. I've tried oh so many over the years, and now I'm done. YIPPEEEEEE!

Of all the self tanners I have tried, I really love this brand the best. It provides even coverage, no orange fake color, with no offensive odor and does not irritate my skin like so many other brands have. The color is believable and fades decently as well. This is really the best stuff out there to self tan with, highly recommend.

I have tried a lot of self tanners and this is by far the best one. It dries quickly, and I never get streaks since I can see where I am applying it. My mom tans in a tanning bed and she thought I did too when she saw me, that's how natural it looks. I apply it using those throw away plastic gloves and for my hands I use a sponge. You should use lotion before you apply the tanner on your hands,feet, elbows,and knees because with any self tanner these areas tend to get darker then the rest of the body.

This is the ONLY self-tanning product I will now use and I have tried many different brands over the years! Rather than using the sponge applicator that is recommended, I apply the tanning mousse with my hands and then wash them thoroughly. The only problem with this method is I tend to get a little of the product under my fingernails which doesn't look very attractive! I love the fact that I have an "instant" tan when I apply the mousse. I used to have to wait around for hours for my tan to appear! However, be aware that the tanner will stain white shorts and socks if you perspire. This self-tanner also has a fairly pleasant scent, unlike many other self-tanners, and even if its more expensive than drug-store brands, a little goes a long way!

I have used probably over 60 self-tanning lotions, sprays, and mousses over the last nine years. This product by far is one of the best out on the market. Great medium brown results, easy to apply, and smells great!

I received this in a swap along with the Au Courant sunless tanning lotion and I was very pleased with it. I've tried countless self-tanners and this is definitely my all-time favorite. The mousse has a rather dark instant color, but it's quite realistic (I've actually been complimented on it) and let's you see where you've applied it. Once that has been washed off, the resulting tan is a very natural medium brown. I'm actually partial to the lotion, because it produces the same great results, is much easier to dispense and far less messy than the mousse (my container leaks mousse everywhere). And one of my favorite things about these products is their smell---they barely have one! For those who can't stand that overpowering DHA stink, this is definitely one to try. If only it were available somewhere besides the internet...I love it so much I tolerate that.
