Messy, streaky, dries skin
I have used many tanning brands and this brand is THE WORST. I do not recommend at all. It is EXTREMELY MESSY, I have an entire process when I self tan- and this formula? Extremely wet, runs down the bottle sides. Application is TERRIBLE. Terrible being an understatement. It is extremely streaky and the formula drys your skin out. I use La Roche-Posay Triple Moisturizer when I tan because of how moisturizing it is, and this formula just was not it. I never do reviews, but for my tanning girls- stick to St Tropez or Bali Body.

After applying the tan I had really high hopes but after rinsing all of the color completely washed away. I followed the directions so this feels like a complete waste of money.

would give zero stars if I could
I honestly can't think of a worse attempt at self tanning since I was 16 in the 90s. I exfoliated, shaved, put on lotion, used a mitt, worked fast but thoroughly (circular motions for over a minute) , and this was my third attempt using this product. Every attempt has been the same: awful. It's so blotchy, streaky and uneven. The very first spot the product touches leaves a edge that cannot get rubbed out. I'm so mad I spent so much money on this product. Do NOT waste your money!

Absolutely love, my tanning mousse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Loving Tan mousse! It goes on so smoothly and gives the most gorgeous golden tan—seriously, it looks stunning and lasts a solid 8–12 days. The color is that perfect golden-to-bronze glow, not orange at all. It also dries really quickly, so you do need to work fast when applying. I left it on overnight for about 8 hours and rinsed it off in the morning—obsessed with the results! I even layered a little extra on my collarbones, backs of my arms, and calves to add definition, and it made such a difference. I immediately ordered another bottle because not only is it beautiful, it’s also well-priced and long-lasting. For application, I used lotion beforehand on dry areas (feet, elbows, armpits), applied the mousse with latex gloves, and then used a tanning mitt to blend around tricky areas like elbows—worked perfectly! Highly recommend—this tan is flawless, natural-looking, and worth every penny! ✨

Lovely product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this product, I will note whenever you first apply it initially you will likely need to do it 2 days (or applications) in a row to build a base layer. It works well and can't be beat for longevity, though I do prefer the 8 hr

Meh
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very warm-orange. Smells bad throughout the week and packaging leaked everywhere on first use, but fades nice. Not sure what all the hype is

Loving it
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) My first expression with this tan mousse is very positive. The packaging feels premium and well thought to add a mitt in the package. The matt is soft and not rough at all. Although this is my first time using a self tan mouse. But it made my beginner experience nice and worthy. I love the fact that it has vitamin E and it’s well hydrating. The scent is not too strong

Ok product!
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I tried this self-tanner and the result is nice, but fairly subtle. The finish looks very natural, making it ideal for anyone who prefers a soft, healthy glow rather than a deep tan. That said, the application is not the easiest compared to other self-tanners I’ve used. The formula doesn’t glide as smoothly on the skin, so it requires a bit more effort and attention to achieve an even result Overall, it’s a good option if you’re looking for a natural-looking tan, but the application experience could definitely be improved.

Instant glow
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) An express self-tanner that truly delivers. The colour looks natural, with no orange tones, and genuinely develops within two hours. The mousse texture is easy to apply, dries quickly, and gives an even finish. Proper hydration beforehand is key to avoid dry patches, but overall, it’s an excellent option when you want a healthy, sun-kissed glow without waiting overnight

Love it!
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This product gives you the purfect summer skin. The odor is light and leaves no residue on the skin. Very light and dries fast. No buildups. Great product.
