I really LOVE this self tanner. I purchased at Sephora yesterday, 4/16/13, and also purchased the mit for applying (which is a MUST - keeps your hands mess and stain free!!). The SA told me it does not have a smell, and she was right. This is the ONLY self tanner I have ever tried that does not leave a disgusting smell. I love the pump bottle and love the mousse formula. It is tinted so you can see where you are applying, and it also gives instant color. It develops into a natural looking, believable tan. I will definitely repurchase!!

This is a great self tanning product! It goes on really easy- mo mess and no stained sheets. And it dries really, really quickly.
The color is nice, could be a little darker. But overall this is one of my favorite, short-term self tanners. Perfect for the weekend!

Absolute must! Use with disposable gloves (I use medical exam gloves from work) or it will stain your hands and nail beds. Colour looks very dark, but easy to see where you've applied it. Ensure you have access to a full length mirror, you want to be careful of any dark spots. To remedy these, I just wet my hand slightly and rub in water until dark streak is gone. Wait roughly 30 minutes before dressing, but I would recommend using before bed. Colour will transfer to your sheets but washes out (I have 900 thread count ivory sheets that came clean easily). Shower again in the morning, the water will be brownish, but, when you are done, you will have the most natural tan look achievable. Looks exactly like a Mediterranean tan.
One caveat, it seems to make me a little energetic, perhaps there is an ingredient that does this, so I don't get the best sleep when I use it. Scent isn't too bad, it is a self-tanner so that is unavoidable but once you shower again in the morning, you will not notice after you apply your moisturizer. Well worth the price, I have not had a single person ask where I tan, instead it's comments on where did I go for vacation!

By far the best self tanner that I've tried. So many products look orange and streaky...not this one. So many products smell terrible...not this one. It does have a characteristic smell, but my hubby doesn't cringe every time I put this on like he does the other tanners. Lol. It also lasts for quite a while, so the price is definitely worth it. Definitely recommend.

I have purchased this tanning mousse time and time again. Although a typical tanner in terms of difficulty to apply (always use a tanning glove!) the color goes on a perfect golden color and applies very evenly if you have properly exfoliated your skin beforehand (a VERY important step). It dries in a minute and stays on for several days before reapplication is required. No streaking, no orange hue, dries fast - only draw back is that it is expensive. Don't use as much in the winter, though so not so bad. One note, however, be careful if you apply it to your face. It can make you look healthier but if applied too heavily it can make your complexion muddy and bring out problem areas. Otherwise, it is the best tanner I have found.

The BEST self tanner ever made. It transforms my casper like skin into a lovely bronze (non orange) colour that looks NATURAL!! I've had issues with every other self-tanner I've applied and had given up until my sis-in-law recommended this.

It gives a non-streaky, non-orange glow without much effort. I exfoliate (as you should before any self-tanner) and wear cheap disposable plastic gloves to apply all over, but remove when carefully applying to my hands (I'm careful of this as it is the area most people forget).

It's economical in Aus, about $42? at priceline or myer but priceline sometime has sales. I don't need a lot so it lasts ages.

I really like this product. It gives a wonderful color and lasts pretty long, and it doesn't streak AT ALL. It is pricey, however this item will last you TWICE as long if you do not use the mitt that comes with it. Use rubber gloves instead. The mitt soaks up so much of the tanner and you end up wasting it. It went much further with the gloves. The smell is pretty decent too. A few things I wasn't thrilled with: It does leave a slight aftersmell after showering, especially on your hands (even using gloves). It is sort of pricey ($40 or so), and it isn't a tanner you can put on before going out or dressing in clothes you don't want potentially stained. I've tried probably 12+ self tanners and this is my 3rd favorite. I would def buy this product again

I can not say enought good things about this product. I first purchased this because I heard great reviews about it from beauty guru Kandee Johnson. I have used this religiously for the past 3 years. I've tried several other self tanners, i always go back to st. tropez

This is my favourite tanner. The colour is quiet natural; application with the mitt is clean and easy. I do recommend applying a layer of moisturiser after the tan dry’s just to make sure it’s nice and even. Make sure you exfoliate really well before you use this. If you don’t, it will only highlight your dry spots. This tan doesn’t have a really strong fake tan smell but it is there. In Australia this product is around 40 dollar which is fairly expensive but I find it’s worth it. It provides a nice brown colour as opposed to the orangey/yellow you get with some brands. The tanning mitt is also a must with this product if you don’t want to get oampa laompa hands! I often use this tan an a couple of hours before I go out and it always looks very natural.
