Gradual Tan Tinted - Daily Firming Body Lotion

Ok

It’s a bit sticky in this Texas heat. Be careful it stains anything it touches! You must use the buffing glove for it to go on evenly.

Disappointed w New Formula: Itchy and inferior

I recently purchased the new formula of this gradual self-tanning lotion, and to say that I am disappointed would be an understatement. Having been a loyal customer of the brand's old formula, I was excited to try out the new version, only to be left utterly dissatisfied. Firstly, the most glaring issue with this new formula is its effect on my skin. Unlike its predecessor, which provided a natural-looking tan without any adverse effects, this new lotion has caused incessant itching on my skin. It is incredibly uncomfortable and has made the tanning process an absolute nightmare. I have never experienced such an uncomfortable and irritating sensation with any self-tanning product before, and it is simply unacceptable. Apart from the severe itchiness, the overall performance of this new formula is a far cry from its predecessor. The old formula effortlessly provided a gradual and even tan, leaving my skin looking sun-kissed and radiant. Unfortunately, the new formula falls short in terms of its color payoff and application. The tan it provides is uneven and patchy, leaving me with splotchy areas that are noticeably darker than others. It's disheartening to see such a decline in quality, especially when the previous version was so effective. Moreover, the scent of this new formula is quite off-putting. The old formula had a pleasant, subtle fragrance that was barely noticeable. In contrast, the new lotion emits an overpowering chemical-like smell that lingers on the skin for hours. Not only is it unpleasant to have this lingering odor, but it also makes it difficult to enjoy the process of self-tanning. As a long-time customer, I expected the brand to improve upon its already successful product. However, this new formula has failed to live up to its predecessor in every aspect. From the irritating itchiness it causes to the uneven tan it provides, the

Best natural looking tan for me.

I have read all the reviews and I came to understanding that people have not been getting what they expected. So I thought I might be useful sharing my experience with it because I love it. For me this gives me the best color without smell and orange tone and doesn’t transfer to clothes. I’ve tried it different times of the day and evenings as well. I’m with very pale skin and self tanning is my only way to get color. First I tried without the mitt and it was difficult and streaky and my hands were green- not good idea . Applied with the mitt this product is on another level, it gives instant not orange but natural looking tan. When you apply it evenly with the mitt it doesn’t leave any green color and has a subtle sparkle. I have never had this natural looking deep tan. I can’t compare it to the mousse yet, I’ve got it hoping will give me same natural results without orange hues but haven’t tried it

Ok pour une soirée mais porter des couleurs foncee

La couleur en soi est belle, il s’étend bien. Mais il décolore et laisse de grandes marques sur la peau !! J’ai appliqué le produit wt suis allée courir le lendemain (!) et la sueur a fait couler le produit et laisser des grands cernes sur ma peau 😫. Il tache les vêtements aussi. J’ai ruiné un gilet blanc.

Not Gradual. Not a lotion. Not worth buying.

I agree with others. Not a lotion. And definitely NOT gradual. This is instantly dark. I have always used gradual tanning lotions and this brands one but they changed it. It’s awful and hard to apply.

My favorite tanning product! Easy to apply and so natural looking after a shower. Will always re purchase from now on!

Awesome product!!

When applied properly, this product is awesome!! I used to use the Gradual Tan Lotion before they discontinued it and replaced it with this. At first, I was not impressed as I was used to applying by hand and then washing promptly after. Once I got a mitt, I found this went on smoothly, you don't need much, and it dries significantly faster. I can apply this right after the shower in the mornings and almost immediately after it's dry and I can get dressed and my colour stays all day. I even work out/do sprints at the gym on my lunch and it stays pretty well intact. Honestly, any person not using a clean mitt to apply any sort of self-tanner is foolish. I use one side one day, the other the next day and then wash it before using it for another application. If you're finding it streaky, that's the solution. This product is great and I hope they keep it around for a long time!!

I love this tanner! It’s the perfect brown glow. I use a mitt to put it on and make sure to really run it in so there are no streaks. I rinse off in the morning and it stays for days. I like this better than the mouse. It’s not sticky, and doesn’t smell like tanner.

Hear me out

Okay hear me out. I HATED this product when I first tried it. It is nothing like the original gradual tan they had before. It was streaky, it stained my hands, it came out green in colour. I decided to mix it with a body lotion and it’s amazing!!! Make sure you wear a mitt though because it does stain the hands. I would give it a 5 star but because you have to mix it with a body lotion in order to get the desired look I gave it a 4. If you use it alone it is zero star product for sure.

St Tropez

Literally best tan ever

Different opinion

I understand the negative reviews. The tanner does go green when first applied. This is my opinion, my experience. I put this on with the mitt before bed. I let it dry for about 15-20 minutes first. The color/green washes off when I shower in the morning. It leaves a beautiful subtle tan for my pale skin. Very subtle and that is the reason why I like this and it stays. I knocked a star off because the texture can be messy-gel like. But I do not recommend this tanner if you want to apply it and then go about your day. You will be green.

Not Gradual, not a Lotion

Everything it says on the package is wrong. Based on the packaging and directions, I anticipated a lotion or cream, similar to the TanLuxe gradual lotion, that would gradually develop colour as you wore it without the need for showering. Instead, this product is a very dark green liquid that requires a mitt to apply due to instant staining, that leaves instant fairly dark colouring (at least for me, I’m rather pale), and needs to be washed off after a few hours due to the smell. The product also contains a large amount of glitter. For this price I expect a way higher quality product. I will be returning this.
