Q: Does this fade naturally over time and how long does it last
submitted by Canapoli - 5 months ago
A: Hello! Yes, the St. Tropez Self Tan Express Bronzing Mousse fades naturally over time, with the tan typically lasting 4-10 days depending on individual skin exfoliation and care. The fading is generally even, but proper skin care, including daily moisturizing and gentle exfoliation every few days, helps maintain an even color and extend the tan's lifespan.

Self appointed Tanning Expert and this is #1
I have been using sunless tanners since i was in highschool and im 38 years old now, so you could say i know my way around the sunless tanning scene. This one is the best of the best! Spreads on easily with a mitt ( i like the st tropez mitts best because theyre not as thick as the other ones … co co tan) Even though it says express ive always treated it as a regular tanning product and slept overnight with it. And no it doesnt make yoo darker and darker if you leave it on for more than 3 hours; and im pretty pale! It fades nicely— no embarasing patches. If you're strictly looking for something to get you tan in 3 hours this product isnt for you but if youre looking for a beautiful color, easily to apply sunless tanner then hands down get this!!!!

My absolute favorite!
I'll scrub and everything before hand and then put some all over my body except for my hands and feet and face. I let it dry a little bit for like five minutes. and then I do a second layer I lotion my hands and feet and I use like a foundation brush in a quiet and leave it on for an hour and wash off my hands and feet and then I sleep through the night with it on my body it's still develops the next day too, so you'll get darker within two days of applying it but it's my absolute favorite. I've tried so many and this is my go to.

My go to tanner
I used the 8 hour from St Tropez for years and when this came out i was nervous at first but have switched to this the last 3 years. Very golden and consistent in hue and coverage. Only thing is it has a light self tanner scent after you rinse off and it lingers for a about a day.

Best self-tanning product out there!
Bought this back in March when it was 1/2 price and just tried it a couple of days ago. I got thee best natural looking tan ever! Highly resembled when I would go to tanning salon, except without the risk of getting cancer! My skin color is light and I left it on for 1.5 hrs to test it out.

Good color and really does develop as promise
Great self tanning product. My go to when I want to tan at home. If you're looking for something that is going to develop darker this is a great product. Best application when using a good tanning mitt for a smooth even tan. Is a bit sticky when first applying and will take about 10-minutes post application before you can dress. Color will wash off after first shower, but it's not taking away your tan it's just the initial color to show where applied.

So easy to use
This provided SUCH a natural tan. It was extremely easy to get an even result. No streaks or splotches. I just wish it got a little darker.

Best self tanner
This stuff really works! I was very skeptical because of the wide variety out there that don’t perform well. This was the first time I tried a self tanner that you washed off after a few hours. I’m not sure if that is the trick, but I washed it off after 2 1/2 hours. I had a nice golden glow and it continues to develop a total of 8 hours. Best of all, it had NO smell.

Best tanner I've used
I've always been a die hard Loving Tan girl but this was on sale, so I bought it to try. I'm obsessed. The color is amazing and lasts for so long. I have my prep down to a science and I literally have to scrub this off a week later because it's stuck to me and not splotchy at all.

My go to; better than a myatic tan
Easy to apply can add layers for a darker look. can quickly dry it with a warm blow dryer. This product doesn't dry your skin out like a lot of other self tans. It does have a slight self tanner smell, but it's not bad. Color last longer than other self tanners.

Best I've ever tried
The color is natural, not orange. The self-tanner smell is minimal - hardly noticeable. I love that it's slightly tinted so you can see where you've already applied it. And being able to rinse it off so soon - game changer. This is my go-to from now on.

Formula changed?
Used this for long time and recently purchased new bottle. When I applied, I noticed color was different (more green) but didn't think anything of it. Then the color developed into orange tan and didn't develop as well as it used too. I read the reviews and someone else mentioned the formula changed too?? Sucks bc it was my favorite. It used to be quick and had a beautiful color that looked so natural. Now I gotta find a different tanner.

There's better options out there
Ive been self tanning for YEARS, used about every self tanner on the market.. I used to use this tanner in the past & it was on sale so I got it again. I was quickly reminded why I stopped using it. The color is slightly yellow/orange. Either spend the extra $2 and get the violet based St Tropez (my favorite thus far, the most BEAUTIFUL color I have ever gotten from self tanner and if you're like me and want to be DARK this is the #1) OR save yourself $20 and buy Bondi Sands Aero at least that one ACTUALLY gives you a deep brown color & doesnt leave you orange at all for almost half the cost unlike St Tropez Express. Just don't waste your money.

Formula changed?
this used to be my favorite tanner but recently got a new bottle and doesnt work the same! the newer one has barely any color to it even tho i left it on for 8+ hours. the old formula was so much better and darker, not the mention the color on this new formula is orange. i purchased previous bottle in 2023 and wish it worked the same. hate this new formula and would not recommend
