Love the gel consistency
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] B.tan glow your own way is the first gel tanner I’ve used and I really like the application. The gel glides on easily and the shimmer makes you glow immediately. The color it leaves is nice, whether you have a base tan or not.

Adds color but needs to be darker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a natural color, the smell is minimal. It takes a bit to build but it lasts a few days even through showering. I think it was not as dark and I just wish it was a little darker.

Works soooo well!
This stuff really works! My legs are ghost white since they never see the sun. Just one coat of this stuff made my legs come to life so that they actually matched my arms. If you have extremely fair skin I would suggest trying one coat first and wait until the next day to see if you need another coat. I wish I had taken a before & after picture!

Looks great on the skin and smells amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product smells amazing. I didn’t notice any staining, but also I didn’t notice any difference in skin tone after applying. I love the glitter effect and the application is smooth. The top was busted off during shipping, so I’m not sure how that affects the tanning, which is why I went ahead and gave three stars.

Would recommend
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good product not overly scented in a little sticky up when applying but I love the little glimmer it gives you a great substitute for body glitter.

A pleasant surprise!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hesitant at first since I’ve never use a self-tanning product; however, this one is quite nice! There wasn’t a sticky residue after applying, and the shimmer gave my skin a subtle glow. I did notice that the product had a strong artificial smell, but it did dissipate a little while after application.

Fav self tan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this self tan! It’s super easy to apply and goes on evenly. I think it smells good too. You only have to stand for about 10 minutes before it dries and you are good to put clothes on without worry of staining them.

Tan and shimmery glow!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid hiker and outdoors person, that summer Tevas tan is too real. Sunscreen strategically placed wasn’t doing the job so I was happy to receive this self tanning product to even my tan out. The glow is gorgeous but note if you’re not putting it everywhere it’s noticeable where you do place it so this would be better for full body tanning. The product absorbs well but make sure to evenly apply or you’ll have streaks. I had to get used to application. It lasts a little while and not much clothing or bedding transfer at all. I’d recommend if you need a good base glow.

It smells good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The scent of this tanning product was so good, I was really pleasantly surprised by it. The texture was like a hair gel almost, I liked that because you could see where the product was. The glitter part of it looked really pretty in the bottle, but I just couldn't see more than a speck of glitter here and there on my skin. I didnt notice any staining on the palms of my hands because I washed them right after applying. I liked that this tanner was light and really gradual. I already had a Texas heat tan going on, I think a little more time will tell if it tans a little more evenly.

Tan + sparkle in one swipe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the product for free from Influenster B.tan in exchange for my honest review. It gives a subtle tan with a gorgeous golden shimmer that catches the light beautifully. The gel texture is lightweight, non sticky, and dries fast—perfect for a quick boost before a night out. Smells great too!

Excellent gradual tanner!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a gradual self-tanning product which I like to have in rotation year round. I really like the gel formulation that absorbs and dries quickly, the subtle gold shimmer and the fact that the scent is barely there and does not smell like a self tanner. I like the pump bottle too. I’d definitely buy this one!

Glowy tanner
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product during the last month or so and I enjoy it. I put it on by the pool on a sunny day and I loved the scent and the texture of it. I do tan naturally so I didn’t really notice too much a difference or if my tan was a result of the sun or this product but nonetheless I use it because it gives me a nice glow!

Smells fabulous but as beginner left streaks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Arrived open so there was a bit of clean up before use, but on the plus side - it smells incredible if you like coconut scents! Application is ok, goes on clear so can’t really tell shade right away but it does have a beautiful shimmer and dries pretty quickly. I’m a first time self-tanner so not much to compare it to, but it did leave a glow with some streaks here and there - might just be user error! Will continue using until I perfect my technique.

Pretty shimmer self tanner
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This b.tan self tanner was fairly easy to apply the pump dispenses easily and smells pretty good. I applied to my left leg only to compare. I applied with a sponge on exfoliated skin and slept with it overnight in the morning. The color was good, a light medium brown tan color, no orange color here, just a nice brown color with a hint of shimmer. I didn't apply moisturizer lotion to my knees before, and that's where it shows streaks that were user error on my part. It takes practice, so I would recommend gradually adding a little at a time so it doesn't get streaky. I will definitely continue using this as needed. This is great for people who don't tan like me. I get splotchy white spots in the sun, so this self tanner is good for me.

The Shimmer is Fire!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok so out of all of the b.tan products I have tried I like this one the best. It's not without its issues but unlike the other ones I've tried at least on me this one actually does give me a golden glow. What's working: the shimmer... it leaves your skin a little glittery a little flirty a little sexy I like it. It also does actually bronze the skin. What's not working at least for me was that it's really hard to get it even. Without a tint it's hard to evenly disperse it on the skin so I wound up with a few patches. Also definitely wash your hands thoroughly when you're done of course you want your hands to be bronzed too so you want to get some of it on there but you have to make sure that you wash between your fingers because otherwise you're going to have some dark lines in between your fingers. Overall I gave it a three because it could use some improvement but it actually wasn't that bad I will definitely use the rest of my container and try to find ways to distribute it better so I don't get patchy.

Easy to use but ineffective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to like this tanning gel. The scent is fairly faint and pleasant, a little goes a long way, it's not difficult to apply, and the glitter is a nice shimmery addition. Unfortunately, it rubs off, leaving streaks on my skin and marks on my clothing. And while I knew it would be subtle, it's very subtle. I used it twice to try to build a little more color, but it was still a very light tan. And when I showered the next day, it just washed off completely.

Love
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved this tanner. This might even be my favorite tan from b.tan. I love them all, but the glitter in this one really just made it perfect! My new go-to.

Nice glow to your Tan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] B..Tan a glowing gel has the light sent easy to apply, but I recommend using gloves. It’s a gel texture for the absorption of the product. It doesn’t take too much time to dry. I recommend having a base tan before using it . This product will enhance share pre-tan give you a glow and some shimmer. Has a light sent to it, not overpowering.
