Great, long-lasting tan that doesn't wash/sweat away easily!
This stuff is amazing. I previously used and loved St. Tropez's mousse, so I decided to try this one. This in-shower gel is the best way to self-tan, in my opinion. Here's a breakdown of everything I love about it: 1) Tanned WAY better than expected and it's a great natural-looking shade. I do have a warm complexion but I am extremely fair-skinned and was surprised by the fast results. I've only used it a few times at this point, and it's already given me a nice base tan. In fact, I haven't even used it in the past several days and it has lasted through showers, work outs, and applying other moisturizers over it. 2) Smelled GREAT and didn't have that weird self-tan lotion smell. Of course, that smell washes away but it was pleasant while I applied it. 3) Made my skin incredibly soft. That was an unexpected bonus. 4) It didn't streak. At all. 5) Unlike lotions, mousses, and sprays you do NOT have to worry about it coming off on your clothes, or if you get sweaty or wet. This is probably the #1 benefit of this in-shower gel formula... it just doesn't feel like it's going to wash away once you've dried off from your shower. Some tips when you use this: 1) I noticed that even when I washed my hands after applying, some residue was left behind around my nails and it was making them yellow. Take the time to wash the product out from around your nails! Dish soap has also washed away tanning residue on my hands the best. 2) If you have long hair and intend on tanning your upper body, use a hair clip to keep your hair from dripping all over or getting gel in it. 3) Don't leave globs behind... they'll sometimes accidentally drip on your feet and will leave behind a noticeable streak. 4) I don't use this every time I shower. I alternate it with L'Oreal's Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer, which I'd also recommend as a great and affordable self-tan lotion. Together the two build and maintain a nice tan.
