This self-tanner offers a clear application that avoids the typical bronzer mess, making it ideal for guests seeking a natural glow without the orange tint. Many guests appreciate its easy application and the fact that it doesn't stain clothes or sheets. However, some have noted that the color may not last long and can feel sticky after application. Overall, it's a convenient option for a subtle tan, especially for fair skin tones.

I am a first time tanner and have pale skin I found this to be so easy. I had no issues with applying it. I put it on and leave it on all day to get max results. I don’t look orange. My husband and family says it looks like I just got back from vacation. It’s that good.

LOVE this self tanner. You can leave on for a few hours or overnight, I usually leave on for at least 6-8 hrs to get the full color. It always comes out in a beautiful tan and the mousse is super hydrating! I get compliments on my skin if I put this on to set before going somewhere. My go-to tanner for years now!
Not that good!

It did not give me a tan at all!! Usually tanning mouse comes out dark but it can out clean for this, which I thought was different but I might as well give it a try. Even after I gave it a try and even put another layer after 6 hours it did not do anything

I used this a few years ago and it was great. Used last night (new bottle, not the same one) to get tan in a pinch and this is the streakiest tan of.my.life. It is very quite orange on my skin. I have an event all day today so I’m attempting to quick tan the streaky bits to fix some of my color and then will scrub what I can to smooth it down. Feels like night and day difference between this time and the first time used. I’ll stick to the nicer stuff from now on.
Excellent

Easy to apply and blends well. I only use it on my face. Then Jergens on my body. Never streaky. Never orange. I mix light and medium with daily moisturizer. Never rinse off until morning shower. It's an excellent product. Go easy on how much you use. I do 2 drops light, 2 drops medium every other day and have a healthy glow. Looks natural.

i do NOT get acne. This broke me out all over my body, including REALLY bad on my face. (Not a lot of acne but stubborn, painful, under the skin acne) i used it a week ago and the acne is only piling up! The tan fades HORRIBLY! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? The tan looked fine for two days and then slowly started looking worse and worse! I have tanned a LOT in the past and have NEVER experienced this! I did all the normal prep steps for the tan, including shaving, moisturizing, exfoliating, all that jazz. I have never had a worse tan in my life! I am returning it and at this point, probably never tanning again. It has been that bad of an experience. I’m ashamed to go out without long pants and shorts or without makeup cuz of the acne and blotchiness. I am so upset and i look so bad. I would give it 0 out of 10 stars. You can see on my chest and neck in the photos how bad it looks.

i loveeeeeee this self tan!!! i have tried both the medium and the dark. i have always left it on for 12+ hours even though it says 4. the one thing i dont like is i feel very and sticky after i apply it, but it smells good. i love how it is clear and doesnt stain anything and the smell also doesnt transfer unless you’re like rubbing yourself onto something.
My fav - but dont use on your face

Favorite self tanner, doesn’t leave you orange or splotchy. Although I bought a new bottle and used it on my face, as normal, and my face got red rashes and little bumps on my cheeks. I do not recommend using it on your face. But looks amazing on the body!

👍🏽 LIKE: • No weird smell • Beautiful even color • No bronze color during application (less likely to stain clothes) • Don’t have to leave it on overnight (but I do) 👎🏽 DISLIKE: • Sticky after application • Doesn’t last long
It's okay

I really wanted to like this self tan more... Pros: - Don't have to wash off because there's no bronzer and it goes on clear - Color is okay, does not appear too unnatural Cons: - If unexperienced the lack of bronzer could lead to uneven application - Color does not last very long, only a few days Overall this product is just okay. It would be fine to use in a pinch but it doesn't compete again my tried and true Ulta Express Mousse
Great tanner

Can’t say enough about this tanner! I use it all year in different shades. I love that it goes on clear and doesn’t require washing off. I think the color looks really natural and I have pretty fair skin. Love the price too

I've been using this tanning mousse for a few summers and it's the best. It applies and spreads evenly easily. After applying to my dry skin I use my current favorite lotion and my legs turn out perfect every time. Like with any self tanner it's necessary to wash your hands afterwards.

If you pay attention to a review - it should be this one. I was so skeptical after reading some of these confusing or negative reviews below! But this medium clear mousse turned out amazing! Here's what I did: exfoliate in shower, lotion, wait 20 minutes to ensure lotion is dry. Apply mousse with a mitt pretty generously, make sure it's evenly spread out in circle motions. Stay naked for 20 minutes. Then wore a loose T-shirt for 2.5 hours while cleaning the house, then showered off. In the morning it was even darker! I noticed two spots I missed so do it 2 days before a trip so you can fix those areas! Yes it can be a little tacky until you shower off but it's no big deal!

The worst self tanner I’ve ever used. It goes on clear so you have no idea where you’ve put it. However, that doesn’t matter at all because you will never turn even the slightest bit tan. I got zero color from this after spending hours feeling sticky and smelly trying to keep it on to “develop” I’ve used many brands of self tanner and this is easily the worst.
Love this stuff!

I’m fair-skinned and the light gives me a subtle tan without any orange tones. I have used this for years and love it! It goes on clear and slowly develops. I apply it with a tanning mitt I purchased from Amazon. Doesn’t feel sticky and doesn’t rub off on my clothes/bedding.
Absolute Favorite!

I absolutely love this product. I’ve used it for the last couple of years and have tried each shade. My favorite things about this product is that 1. It doesn’t transfer onto my bedsheets or pajamas once applied to skin before bed. 2. The seamless glide across the skin is perfect, it’s smooth, my skin feels hydrated after using it and I feel like it is evenly dispersed on skin. 3. Price is perfect, I can get a handful of uses out of one bottle. 4. I don’t feel like the color makes me look orange, I have very light skin tone, with some peachy undertones and I feel like it really makes my skin glow. Each shade I feel like can be used around the year. I highly recommend before putting this self tanner on or any other kind that you take care of your skin first to set your tan up for longevity. Keep hydrated, dry brush before showing, scrub your body and don’t forget your feet! Make sure once you’ve applied the tanner and you’re ready to wash it off for the perfect color that you are hydrating your skin with lotion or body oil. Keeping moisturized will make your tan last longer. I highly recommend this product!
