Glow Clear Self Tanning Mousse

Solid 8.5/10

It’s a self tanner—let’s keep in mind the correct prep!! You have to exfoliate & moisturize well prior to application. Without those two things, ur doomed. Let’s keep in mind this is my first ever self tanner purchase. But these are my thoughts and findings from a couple applications: 1. The clear product is a game changer, absolutely no color transfer to my sheets or clothing. 2. The mousse application is just as I expected. I have not tried their oils, so I can’t compare, but I have no complaints about the texture. Not sticky at all. I would agree with their marketing that says it’s hydrating. 3. Smell. It does have a minor smell but I applied it before bed and it was gone in the AM. It was not a dealbreaker for me. 4. The color I think is pretty important. I am not a bronzed girly, but I got the purple—the darkest shade. I may end up switching to the medium to try it out. I loved how the purple developed and it was an 7/10 color in my opinion. A little more orange than I wanted to be, especially in natural sunlight, but literally only on my face. My body color was great!! If you’re indoors, I would say it’s less of a problem. 5. Application. What I did: Exfoliate 24 hours before with a dry brush. Day of: exfoliate in shower, apply my squalene oil to dry skin (my moisturizer), then apply product. I started at my legs and went up. Did not even touch my wrists/hands or ankles/feet until I was completely done with my body. I did not add more product to the mitt after I did my face, swiped my feet once and swiped from my wrist down my fingers once each side. Note: bend your fingers when you apply, otherwise you miss the knuckle skin and end up with lines where the tanner did not reach. 6. Final comments. Their mitt was a huge problem, product went through and turned my hands very orange. (Do not purchase their mitt.) Specifically my knuckles and my pointer finger on my left hand?? It was not the end of the world and it did not show up in photos at all, my frien

Foam nozzle does not work.

This was my go-to must have or I panic tanner last summer. I have so far bought 3 bottles this summer and every single one has stopped pumping. As one reviewer said the last one stopped after 3 uses. The first two times I thought might be my fault for leaving it in a bag where it was sideways or upside down but this is their problem and one I hope they fix asap. Until then do not buy.

Pump WILL break on you. Save your money.

Every time I’ve bought this product within the past year/year and a half, the pump ALWAYS breaks… which is a big deal because this is a foam product and doesn’t apply as well without the pump making it totally useless when the pump inevitably breaks. This recent purchase, I was only able to use the product ONCE before the pump broke. So disappointing because this used to be my go to self tanner and I have used it for years with no problem in the past. ISLE OF PARADISE! FIX THE PUMP! Won’t be buying again. Too frustrating!

been using for years.

i don’t write reviews but saw so many bad ones i felt i had to write one. i am a very fair redhead and this tan has done wonders for me, but its in the way i apply it. I do 2 layers and re apply the following night to make sure it is streak free and dark. lasts a long time too!!

CAP BROKEEEEE

First time I used it cap broke and splattered all over me…

Don’t buy

Tried this stuff twice and it gave me 0 color. I will be returning.

streaky and bad packaging

i dislike this product for how streaky it is and the pump barely works after using it 1-2 times

Good formula, faulty pump

What happened to the pump? I have used this product until empty multiple times and am now on my second brand new bottle with a faulty pump!!!

Close enough to perfect for me.

I love this tanner. I think it smells great as far as self tanners. But I actually like the way self tanner smells on me. It stays a little tacky but not enough to bother me. The color looks really natural on me. I asked the next day to deepen and hit a spot or two I missed. The places I have trouble with, namely my feet are strictly user error. I use a mitt on a bath brush to do my back. I use a kabuki brush on my hands. Then use a wipe on my nuckles and fingernails. I wash my hands after 30 minutes. Tips from Abbey Yung on YouTube. They look great.

Disappointed

Was really not impressed orginally yes but within 24 hours my skin was blotchy and it was not pretty I had high hopes. :( brought it back

Fix the Pump!!

I liked the product the first time I used it but the pump had broke before I could use again. Super frustrating because when the pump stops working it kind of goes all over the place, so now I have spots all over you where the product went flying. Will not repurchase, the product should last longer for the price its at...

Not for me

Horrible orange color! I love the drops and figured I would try the mouse. Color isn’t the same.
