the only self-tanner I will use. Easy to put on, does not streak or smell. Only wish it would last longer than a few days.

Natural tan!
-01.03.13
Quick Take: super natural looking
To go with a strapless dress I was wearing for a wedding, I wanted a natural tan.
The day before the event I used the body self-tanner and got exactly what I was looking for. Just be careful to evenly apply it since I ended up with a few streaks (but nothing a rinse and scrub couldn't tone down!).

Quick Take: long lasting
Just purchased this recently because I hate the way spray tans look on my skin. It is very easy to apply and I could tell a difference immediately after putting it on. After a few hours I had a very natural color and glow that lasts me a awhile. I have been applying it once a week. I thought it was a litt pricey at first but it is definitely worth it! Great product!

Great self-tanner
-11.18.12
I love this self-tanner. The color looks authentic and not orangey like some other self-tanners. It also doesn't have much of a smell. My only gripe is that the towels could be a little juicier, they get pretty dry before I have tanned my whole body. Hit the important areas first!

Quick Take: gradual, long lasting
I decided to splurge and buy this kit before I went to Vegas during the summer. It was pretty much what I wanted: nice glow, easy application, quick results, minimal smell (smelled kinda nice actually).
Only downside was getting the feet tanned properly, especially near the bottom of my foot. I don't want to wipe the bottom of my foot but around the edges, and it turned out a bit too orange for my liking. And it made my cracked skin a bit more visible. Oops!
It's a bit tricky to know which area to focus on because the first wipe will be the darkest area on your body. Luckily it's not too hard to touch up after seeing how the shade looks like a few hours later.
Overall, it lasted me about a good 2 weeks before the colour starts to fade off in the shower. Eventually I just started rubbing off the tan colour myself so my skin colour will be back to normal.
I'd recommend anyone who is looking for a easy, quick and great result to give this product a try! It does get pricey, but it's worth it for something special... like a party, or a vacation.

Quick Take: amazing true healthy looking natural tan
Hi, these self tanning wipes are amazing, if you have tried many other brands and found streaks and stinks you need to try these wipes for the best summer glow around and the best part - they are portable. So you can take a wipe with you when your on a weekend getaway! They are a self tanners dream come true, honestly I have literally tried them all. This beats them hands down.

Great results... but use caution
-06.23.12
Love the face wipes. You are totally bronzed within just a couple of hours. But, be careful with the body wipes. You have to be meticulous about application. If you accidentally miss a spot, it is VERY obvious. Two out of three of my attempts, I have totally botched but I'm not giving up yet! When you get it right, it is totally worth it.
