20 Best Face Self Tanner For Acne Prone Skin (2023 Updated)

My main purpose in buying this was to supplement the tanning to my face and my hands, as those can be kind of tricky to tan at times. I would suggest that you wrap your hair to avoid your hair turning orange.

And don’t forget to wipe off your eyebrows after spraying your face. The other thing that I would suggest is using a dry brush to spread out the tanning water evenly. See the Kabuki Tanner brush. This stuff feels like water but it is truly tanning water.

And watch out for skin tags or moles as they will also turn darker. Wash those off with plain water. I have found out that you can use this tanning water on other areas of your body like your arms and chest and legs.

It works great!!.

I was specifically looking for a self-tanner or bronzer for sensitive, acne, and oily-prone skin. This had great reviews, so I tried it. I quickly realized it was giving me small bumps all over my cheeks and forehead.

I would try it, break out within a day or two, stop using it, and the bumps would clear. If that didn’t happen, I would say it gives great, eventual colour.

I really love these tanning drops. I’ve tried tons of self tanning products and these are my favorite for my face. To apply, I cleanse my face, and use circular motions to blend it into my skin with my fingertips.

I apply it to my face AND blend it down my neck so there isn’t a harsh line. If you have a very light skin tone naturally, that step is super important. I leave it on overnight and then cleanse like usual in the morning when I wake up.

I know it says you can mix the drops with a moisturizer but I just use it by itself, because I’ve noticed it gives me better results when applied that way. If I use these tanning drops twice a week it keeps a nice color on my face.

I like that it’s more of a brown based “tan” and not orange. There isn’t a strong scent like there is with some fake tanning products. It doesn’t make my face feel greasy at all, and actually gives it a nice moisturized feel.

Some facial tanning products have dried my face out in the past so I was happy to see that isn’t the case with this product. In my opinion, the price point is perfect because these work really well and last for a LONG time.

I only use maybe 6-7 drops to do my entire face and neck. I highly recommend these if you’re wanting to add some natural looking color to your face!.

hey, hey loves! it’s been a minute buuut, I’m back 😘 I’ve missed you❤ alright so the AMAZING, oneonly Influenster decided to send me this product in #voxbox and after using it for a solid 6 days, I’m feelin ready to break it down for you.

okay so first off – I’m not gonna lie, I was so not expecting to like this at all. like AT ALL. Nothing against this brand but I’ve NEVER had good luck/outcomes with any kind of tanning drops 🤔. I don’t know couldn’t tell ya why lol but it is what it is.

Alright so I got into this bad boy the directions say it MUST** be mixed with moisturizer explains how many drops to get the level result you desire. I personally did 5 drops each day, smooshed it all up then covered my face neck in it (um.

I was terrified of being orange but also. not anywhere else 😂) and from the first application, I was actually impressed with the quality feel. It didn’t make me super slick, tacky, just filmy feelin, nothin.

but it did make me feel pretty darn smooth like WHOA. it’s got hyaluronic acid in it I’ve tried many products that are chocked full of this but this was like really crazy surprise good feeling my skin, I almost dare say – loves this.

BUT – okay, I’m gonna tell you the con now, BUT please remember; this means NOTHING for you as everybody’s skin is different thus different results 😀. Okay so day 3, I felt like maybe there was a little color but now.

I’m fairly certain that I am gradually shifting a bit more warm looking than straight pale – is it crazy? no, not only using 5-6drops; it’s gradual, AS it SAYS it is woman 😂😂 but also, it almost feels so gradual/slow building that I was kind of questioning what’s what here.

until I added more drops (8-10 as it suggests lol) that 7+ drops really was quite noticed as I started to look pretty evenly bronzed over wowing. I added this part in because I don’t want you to give up too quick on the tan aspect of it also don’t want you to jump way too fast come at me like 😅 Regardless of how(if) you wanna build a tan – you want this product.

It will help you come summer when you’re ready to look AMAZINGLY sun-kissed but MORE SO – it’s gonna keep your beautiful face hydrated/regaining hydration that is the ultimate way to good, happy skin – this product actually freakin shocked me I’m wickedly glad I got to try it cause I probably wouldn’t have known my own.

So my ultimate recommendation: Definitely add this to your “Buy/Try/Wish List” because it’s gonna be a super affordable price point it’s gonna be like a steal deal with how it makes you feel. get it, get it🎶.

I’ll start off by saying I’m an avid user of self-tanning products. Naturally I’ve got light skin with neutral-rosy undertones, and living in the Midwest, I have very little hot girl summer to work with.

I use self tanners all over when it’s colder out, but frequently use facial self tanner year-round as my face loses color the fastest (thanks to my awesome skincare routine! 😎) I have a current go-to self-tanning face serum with hyaluronic acid that retails at nearly double the price of the L’Oréal Sublime Bronze Drops, so needless to say, I was pretty stoked to try it out and compare! Pros: ☀︎︎Great packaging- feels like a high end product in your hands ☀︎︎Instrustions are thorough but simple- be sure to exfoliate prior to application! ☀︎︎A buildable glow- great for those new to self tanning products or unsure about how dark they’d like to get ☀︎︎Does what it says it will- the “tanning” ingredient found in self-tanners (hydroxyacetone) is one of the first few listed, so you know you can expect some results ☑️ Cons: ☀︎︎Took a few applications for me to see results I prefer- the first time I used it I followed the directions exactly and mixed it with my moisturizer.

In the morning I felt like most of the color I achieved washed off. After applying again the second night directly onto my face, I was much happier with the color I saw! ☀︎︎This is totally a personal preference, but I enjoy the light scent my typical facial self-tanner has.

Helps take away from the smell you notice from the “tanning ingredient” working on your skin. That said, if you’re sensitive to fragrance, this will be right up your alley! Overall I would buy this again if my go-to was out of stock or I find myself on more of a budget.

It’s definitely a great inexpensive alternative for those without much self tanning experience or sensitive skin! The pictures I’ve added includes a before with my ghostly pale natural skin tone, and then an after three uses of the L’Oréal Sublime Bronze drops.

😊.

So far I have used the body tanning lotion, face tanning lotion, tan extend lotion and hand mitt. I haven’t really needed the exfoliator, immediate tan lotion and brush. I have followed what some users have done putting on the lotions at night.

I shave my legs that morning and don’t put any lotions on during the day. I wash my face right before application. So far works great that way. I have used the tanning lotions on my face, chest, back, arms and legs.

The arms and legs last the longest. I wash my face twice a day so that fades more quickly. I have fair skin tone and the dark is a natural tan color for me. I just washed the mitt for the first time.

I used it for a few weeks without washing on both face and body. I didn’t wash my hands very well after using it the first time and it tinted under my fingernails even though I used the mitt. So make sure you wash your nails for sure after application.

I have shaved my legs in between applications and some color seems to stay despite shaving. The color fades naturally. I have noticed a little color transfer on pressure points of clothing such as elastic legs and on shoulders with bra straps.

This is the best sunless tanning product I have found. I like it.

I am in love with this body bronzer! Beautiful color that isn’t orange or shimmery at all. Gel formula is super easy and quick to apply and blend with an applicator mitt. No streaks or weird color build-up on ankles/feet that I’ve experienced with other brands.

I hate using DHA self-tanners, so I’ve been looking for the perfect wash-off bronzer and THIS IS IT. The price is affordable, the color is lovely and it applies evenly and doesn’t transfer. The only downside is that I don’t care for the fragrance, but at least it’s better than that unmistakable self-tanner smell.

I use this on my legs in the summer and I feel confident wearing shorts and skirts. My legs are super pale and white and this color is so nice and bronze without shimmer – just right without looking fake.

I’m so impressed with this product and so glad I found it online. I’ve tried a lot of other bronzers and this one is the best. FYI – shipping took almost two weeks so keep that in mind.

So far I love this self tanner! I have to admit I was a bit skeptical hearing this self tanner wouldn’t leave a smell as it processed but they’ve done a really great job at perfecting it! There is definitely a strong coconut smell but it’s so much better than the strong self tanner smell.

The color goes on great too, although I’d like to try the ultra dark on my skin. The dark goes on nice but would like to see a bit more color. I also love the feel of this lotion! It doesn’t feel sticky, doesn’t bother me throughout the day as I have it on.

That used to deter me from putting self tanners on more frequently was the way it felt and smelled during the day or as I slept. This goes on smooth and I almost forget I have to shower to wash it off.

Really, really like it and can’t wait to try a slightly darker tone!.

Iv been a model and beauty influencer for years and I often receive products from companies but rarely ever end up using them. But I must say I was super impressed with the sunlabs brand. I had a bikini photo shoot and had uneven tan lines from the summer I applied the lotion on my white areas with the mitt and it blended in perfectly! You literally could see no difference between my natural tan an the fake tan! Since then it’s been my go to sunless tanner.

Even my photographers comment on how my fake tan is not orange like a lot of other models they shoot. It last me about a week with just one application and it smells great I strongly recommend this product.

I have tried so so many different tanning products because I have really pale skin and this is the best product I have tried! Not only is it not streaky, it is so easy to apply especially when you use the glove and there is no odor.

I have really oily skin too and this makes me feel hydrated instead of feeling oily. I definitely recommend!.

I have tried almost every lotion out there over the years thinking that someone will eventually get it all right in ONE bottle. To say I was crazy happy is a understatement! The first thing I noticed when I opened the tube was the smell, it took me back to sandy beaches and tropical drinks.

Smells like coconuts and sugar! I love that the lotion itself isn’t colored, as I applied it felt like silk and was a smooth application. I do like to use my finger to apply, no mitt, ( I use a nail brush to scrub my hands after applying) and the reason is that it gives me a sense of the real quality and texture, as well as the smell that usually makes me toss it quickly.

With this lotion, you will have no worries. It also didn’t stain my clothing, sheets, etc. NO orange glow with this, no one would never guess it was a sunless tanner. What I’ve noticed since using this everyday, and yes it sounds crazy, but it also has softened the wrinkling we all get on our neck.

I’m in my 40’s and don’t have a huge amount of wrinkles, but I hate the few I have on my neck, but this is a miracle in a bottle, so to speak. I will always leave a honest review , doesn’t matter if it is good OR bad.

As for myself I love everything about this🌴.

I mix a few drops of this self-tanner with Cerave body lotion and it does distribute well (I have not used on it’s own). There are a few spots the following day that are probably obvious self-tanning application mishaps, but likely that’s a “me” issue.

There is absolutely a smell, and to me (as a 31y/o millennial who has been enticed by self-tanners for many moons) it is directly associated to self-tanner. When I am using, I get a little self conscious of hugging my loved ones because I feel the smell is so obvious that they will know that my natural-looking tan is very unnatural (noting here that yes I think it looks quite natural!).

I hate painting my nails, and this absolutely stains my nails no matter how much a scrub my hands after application. Short nails or painted nails it is when this product is in rotation. Bonus: it has never rubbed off on clothes/sheets! Tl;dr: expect a self-tanner scent, use with a lotion such as Cerave, does not transfer to clothing, expect one shade darker and nothing dramatic (I’ve never had a friend say “omg you look so tan!” which to me is the ultimate test in the dead of winter in New England).

I loved the face version of this so decided to try the body. I love that I can mix it with my own body lotion and it dries a bit faster then foams but that’s where the pros end. I’ve tried it 3 times now, each time applied more thoroughly then the last but always turns out blotchy.

The tan colour itself is not natural looking, definitely has orange tones. This self tanner is not forgiving, you have be extremely careful and diligent and even then blotches are still a possibility.

The tan takes a few hours to develop too so you can’t see if you’ve missed any spots until it’s too late. It last’s 2 days for me, I make sure to prep my skin before hand with a good exfoliator and moisturize every day.

As for the smell, it has a nice scent going on but as it dries it smells like every single self tanner I’ve ever tried, there’s no escaping that lingering fake tan smell, it’s one of the ingredients.

All self tanners try to mask it with their own formulated scent but as it dries you will notice that classic fake tan smell. Would also like to note that I am very fair skinned and didn’t find the medium/dark tan too be too much.

I was a bit concerned it wouldn’t look right on me. I think I’ll be sticking to foam tans.

Ya’ll. This product and the THE BODY drops have made self-tanning such an easy addition into my routine. When I was using other self tanning products, I’d have to plan around my shower schedule so I could make sure I’d be able to shower the morning after applying products, and I was constantly going to bed sticky and praying I wouldn’t stain my comforter.

Now I add a couple tanning drops to my facial moisturizer or face sunscreen every few days, and I can maintain a natural glow for weeks without even really thinking about it. I love the light/medium for a natural looking tan that just makes it seem like my summer tan isn’t ever going to fade.

It is buildable, but if you want a deeper glow I would go for the darker shade. I’ve found it works best if you put your moisturizer/whatever you are adding it to in your palm, then add your drops and mix it in with your other pointer finger.

Then apply all over your face, making sure to rub it into your hairline and down your neck. I’ve never experienced any streaking. The DHA smell is mild, I don’t think there is any way to avoid it with self-tanning products, so I didn’t mind the smell.

I absolutely love this product, I’m very hard to tan( very fair skin which I hate) so I have tried just about every single regardless of the price self tanning products on the market at this time. This one doesn’t give you an orange or brassy color.

I love the golden natural tan this product gives my skin. No harsh smells or chemicals you will be worrying about with this either. I don’t have time to even try to get a tan if I was able to tan so me being a fair skin strawberry blonde this product has become a best friend to me and time and money saver.

If you have not tried this product and you are looking for one , you can find the color that you desire with this product name. I highly recommend you at least give it a try by a sample if you are hesitant about buying it first and see for yourself.

I’m giving this product 5 stars from my own personal experience.

I loved the first Sun Labs self-tanner I bought so much, that I had to get another one! This time I went for a little darker shade. I got the Ultra Dark tint. At first I was worried that it would be too dark, but it actually turned out well.

It goes on very dark but then as it dries and time goes by, it actually lightened up a little for me. It still gave me a nice, rich all-over color though. One of my favorite parts about this product is how natural it looks.

I’ve used other things in the past and this by far gives off the most natural, sun kissed vibe. I’ve had many compliments about my new glow and I always tell folks about this product. It also feels great going on.

It actually helps moisturize your skin when you use it, which makes the glow even brighter. All in all, I’m very happy with this purchase. I will definitely be a long-term fan and user of Sun Labs and their self-tanners.

I may even try another shade next time just to see what they are all like. I do really like this ultra dark color the best though. It makes me very happy that there are products out there like this, that can give you a natural looking tan without the harmful sun exposure.

I again highly recommend this product to anyone looking for self-tanner that looks real, doesn’t streak, and lasts a good amount of time!.

This stuff is amazing! I bought this at Ulta and paid a pretty penny ($48 for an 8oz bottle!!!). What can I say, I was desperate! But based on the reviews from MUA and the SAs at Ulta I felt like I had chosen a winner.

I’m not new to self-tanners, I know how to use them but I’ve never really had great results. This is by far the best I’ve ever used! I am a NW20/25 and the Very Dark gives me a natural brown tan. No orange.

And it seems to last about a week which is great! It has a pleasant cherry almond smell but after a few hours that weird tanner smell kicks in. I just use it before bed so that I don’t have to deal with the smell.

It has a color guide so you can see how you are applying it. Don’t freak out when you first use it. it’s the color of chocolate pudding but you won’t turn out that color! The color develops almost instantly.

My only complaint about this product is that it stains your palms. I’ve never had to use gloves with other products before because I would just wash my hands frequently while applying and that was that.

Since this color develops so fast, there’s no way to really avoid it. I still don’t use gloves. instead I just make sure when I’m done to use one of my scrubs on my palms. It helps a bit. You still end up with a slight tint to your palms but nothing freakish in my opinion.

I would also like to add that I’m not sure if this would work for someone that already is very tan. Since I’m NW25 and it gave me a natural look with the Very Dark formula, I can’t imagine it doing much for anyone that’s super tan already.

That’s just my assumption. Most importantly, I read from another reviewer that you can get a big bottle of this for cheap at www. lookingtan. com. An 8oz bottle at Ulta was $48. On this website you can get a 32oz bottle for $40! I will definitely take advantage of that! This product is worth every cent! Highly recommend!.

7 months ago I had laser pigmentation removal which destroyed my skin barrier and now I have super sensitive skin and struggle with dermatitis. I can’t wear most of the old makeup and tan I use to wear without causing a flare up so I thought I’d give eco tan a go.

To my surprise it didn’t cause any irritation to my skin. The skin care products I use day and night are derived from essential oils and I’ve found if I mix them with tanning water the result isn’t as nice and sometimes comes out patchy.

I saw adds suggesting to use the face tan water as well as the super fruit hydrator and one drop of glory oil so I thought I’d give that a go as I felt my skin need that bit of extra hydration whilst tanning (my skin is super dehydrated since having the laser and my skin feels horrible if I miss a night of my skin care routine) and it left my face evenly tanned and feeling hydrated.

Super happy with all of the products that I even got the exfoliating scrub which I also love. I love the face tanning water but I do wish it came in a darker shade as I find I’m putting on 5x the recommended amount and I have to do this two nights in a row to achieve the colour I’m looking for.

Thanks so much for making these wonderful products suited for all skin types Xx.

So I saw this product on an instagram post and was sceptical that it actually worked. I had a major car accident and just couldn’t be bothered wearing make up (I never used to leave the house without it) and then I took a chance and purchased the face tan water.

I actually couldn’t live without this product now. I don’t wear make up anymore (except special occasions) and only use the face tan water. Safe to say I am so confident to leave the house wearing only this product.

I have a birth mark on my forehead, hence why I would always wear make up. Eco tan face tan water is an absolute blessing and makes my skin look amazing. I’m always getting comments about how natural it looks.

I have now ventured out and purchased a couple of more products from eco tan and will work up to getting the whole range. Sonya you have created the best product and should be so proud of yourself! Only down fall is they need a bigger bottle of the face tan water haha.

I am now a customer for life!!.

Hi guys, I just wanted to say that I received a really nice heart felt comment from someone about my skin. Ive had cystic acne when I was in high school and have always suffered from scarring to boil and painful acne on my face.

Ive been on very strong harsh medication to seeing a naturopath to try and clear it up. I started using your products months ago and yesterday I received “whatever your doing to your skin or whatever your using keep it up as I’ve never seen your skin look this good before, it’s the best looking it’s ever been”.

Omg it actually felt amazing to hear that my face is looking really good and it’s all thanks to Eco by Sonya!!! So I really wanted to share this with you and to also say a massive thank you for your products I use every day and couldn’t be without.

Thank you for letting me have confidence with my skin after 19 years xxxx and it’s all because you xxxxxx So if your thinking should I try their products, don’t delay and do it today you won’t regret it and you’ll never look at other products again! :).

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This product has a very nice smell to it. Application was very easy. Make sure to read directions carefully because different areas of the body require different amounts of product.

I didn’t notice any streaking at all. I have sensitive skin and there was no problem with irritation with this product.

Repeat user of this lotion self tanner. Leaves my skin feeling moisturized after vs the dry feel with foam. Doesn’t leave streaks unless you leave a thick layer of lotion somewhere. Even have used on my face and back with no acne issues.

Has a very faint scent that isn’t noticeable unless you really are breaking a sweat.

I’m so glad I found this after searching for so long for facial tanner that didn’t make me orange and gives a natural glow. It’s very gentle apply just as you would a toner twice per day on clean dry skin.

I use this is my AM and PM routine and you can use 2 coats using a cotton round to apply using a gentle sweeping motion. Results are amazing it’s organic and gives me such a natural radiant sun kissed glow.

I purchase my bottle last year during winter when I desperately needed some color. I don’t use foundation unless I’m doing a makeup tutorial video since this pretty much replaces the need for foundation.

After all who would want to cover up glowing skin. Shipping took a solid 2 weeks but so worth the wait! It cost about $40 and it’s worth every penny since the bottle has lasted me so long. In the summer I used it sparingly and if you use this after a sun tan it really gives you that coveted OMG just gorgeous sun kissed look! This is my sunless tanner it is gradual so you can go as light or as deep as you like.

Face tan water uses natural ingredients like hyaluronic acid, orange peel and rose geranium to immediately give your skin a nice feel and moisturizing glow. Over time, (I usually put on in evening after cleansing) it produces a subtle gradual self tan that is never orange.

I’ve been complimented many times on how fresh my skin looks when using this product. It has a light -almost caramel – scent, and is organic!! I bought mine in 🇨🇦. #ecobeauty #vegan #madeinaustralia.

This stuff is truly amazing. I don’t get why this isn’t more popular. The price might seem a little high, but this will last you up to a year, if applied 2-3 times a week. You only need two drops for face, neck, a little chest and even your hands.

I got my bottle in January of this year and it will most definitely last my to next January. I’ve literally recommended it to all my friends and family. I think they’re starting to think that OrganicTan/EcoBySonya is paying me.

If you are looking for a super natural looking tan or glow for your face: look no further. Start off with a clean, dry face. Put about two drops on a cotton pad and apply evenly to face and neck. I usually start the middle off my forehead, then my cheeks and my nose, chin and I finish with my hairline and ears.

I even put a little more on my ‘contour’-areas. The order doesn’t matter too much, since you can’t really mess this up. Excellent for people who never tan. Right after I put it on I usually go to sleep.

It won’t stain your sheets. When I use the Face Tan Water I don’t put moisturizer on, but when I do, I wait for about an hour so it can work its magic. I would also recommend this for people who don’t wear make-up/foundation, but want to even out their skin tone.

It actually does what it says on the bottle; give you brilliant even tanned complexion. Not orange or fake tan-ish. I think it’s suitable for fair to medium skin tones. Skin texture/type-wise I’d say that basically anyone can use this, from sensitive to oily, to dry or acne-prone.

The consistency is like water and the product is organic, so I do not think it will cause any problems. The only downside to this product is that if you use a heavy exfoliant after, it will go away. Keep that in mind.

Tanning impaired- this is made for us! I am the queen on the struggle bus for fake tanning. I get those black dots that look like blackheads no matter how I prep, I have almost translucent skin I’m so pale to begin with, along with things like vericose veins on legs.

I also have medical devices like a feeding tube and port on my chest that makes regular fake tanning really difficult to blend around and not look crazy. Plus undertones when your very fair and very neutral is hard to find the perfect one.

So, I just got back from Vegas and I took this and I bought the Bali body express tan which I didn’t even end up using. The tanologist I mix with a little bit of BumBum cream to make it a bit less dark.

It almost soaks into skin like a stain. But it gives an airbrush effect to skin but looks so real and natural like I’m actually tan. I wore this only on my legs my entire trip, even sitting by the pool and getting misted and it held up so well with sweating like crazy in 110degreeF heat.

I love that you can just wash it off with soap and water tho. But if you let it fully dry the transfer is almost non existent. I was sitting on white towels, sweating and no transfer. I still wouldn’t trust anything near white clothes too much.

But this is beautiful. You need it. For us who don’t have the time to invest in prep, waiting for tan to develop, smelling like a burnt biscuit ( no gross smell !! Yay) it’s immediate and customizable in shade.

Can definitely build the colors a bit or sheer it out like I do with lotion. There’s no big ugly glitters in it but a slight glow. It’s still a satin skin like finish in my opinion. But that you can also alter with whatever you mix with it if you so choose.

The only thing that took me a minute to get ahold of was when you first apply it, the pigment soaks into skin fast. So I’d still apply it like any other fake tan , quickly, with a mit. Or like myself I just wore a medical glove.

I love this so much. Gives me confidence to actually show my legs for the first time in years.

When I first tried it I absolutely hated it. It dried way too quickly, stained my hands, and wouldn’t blend!! But I was determined to make it look amazing and I figured out the “code”. Btw, if you’re not very pale (I’m in the shade Pearl in 24h Fresh Wear foundation), you’ll either have to use a lot of this to achieve a nice, medium tan.

Otherwise, it adds a splendid glow and evens your natural skin tone. 1. Do NOT use your hands, instead use a tanning mitt. There’s a double sided tanning mitt that Ulta sells that’s perfect for this.

2. Put a dab of your favourite lotion or sun cream as well as a dab of this bronzer onto the mitt. 3. Apply to small areas first working yourself up from your bottom to the top. For example, I started with my ankles, calves, and shins instead of trying to spread this all over my whole leg.

The lotion and bronzer should mix nicely together and blend, and just keep rubbing it in to achieve evenness. 4. Make sure you’re completely dry before putting on any clothes. Applying a full body application took me about 20 mins, and covering just my legs, arms, chest and neck took me about 10 mins.

Of course, you’re going to need to experiment with the right lotion/sun cream to bronzer ratios, but once you’ve figured it out, it will be well worth it!.

I’m really liking this product! This is great for when your tan starts to fade or become uneven. Also like a lot of other people my chest doesn’t seem to get as dark and it fades more quickly, this evens it out nicely for the day.

This is not a gradual tanner or anything like that, it’s basically a body makeup. It washes off when you shower. I get why there are some negative reviews on this guy, I wouldn’t like to use it by itself.

I gave it a try just to see how it would work alone, very hard to blend, didn’t go very far, and splotchy. But I already knew I was going to use it a different way based on the reviews here! I apply it using gloves so I don’t get it on my hands, and I mix it equal parts with my body lotion and rub it in quickly to the areas that just need a touch up (usually my chest, neck, tops of my shoulders) and it dries quickly but not as quickly and unevenly as alone.

It has a great smell! It also dries completely with no film or residue feeling. The color is great as well and blends well with my self tanner. I will repurchase but I can see this lasting me quite awhile!.

Tan luxe broke me out like crazy, didn’t last, and I didn’t love the color. It’s greasy and it’s overrated. I purchased this around the same time. the application is amazing! Especially for lazy girls lol.

No greasy gross hands just wipe and done. Comes out perfect even. I let the color develop for 12 hours and I looked definitely orange and got scared (but looked fine the majority of the day) but when I washed it off, OMG.

like I got a real tan. It even dries my skin out (in a good way) the way the sun does. It literally feels and looks like a real tan. Looks so natural and lasts a decent amount. No breakouts whatsoever and it actually cleared my skin up.

Dare I say HG??? Lol. Now that I see that self tanning is this easy and isn’t a greasy annoying ordeal, I’m gonna use these all the time. I don’t need any makeup! And I look so much healthier and prettier!.

I absolutely love these and now have them on repeat order. I am a fake tan devotee and have tried so many. I always find facial fake tans are really drying and can be streaky. These are a game changer.

They do what they say, leave a glow to the skin with a nice hint of tan. This take foundation over the top really well and then a slight touch of bronzer for a really healthy look. I am naturally pale and have uneven skin tone and these have been great.

I have read reviews that they smell, they do when first removed from the packet, but they don’t leave a lasting smell on the skin unlike some other tanning products. I have a slight reservation about the amount of packaging due to them being individually wrapped but overall, I wouldn’t be without them.

I don’t use every day, maybe every 2-3 days. My favourite discovery of the year so far!.

These are great, they work, no nasty ingredients, good for my sensitive, acne prone skin. BUT – there’s a huge caveat. I cannot use these every day, or really any more than once a week, because they have a strong AHA content.

I’m already using Mandelic Acid, Salicylic acid, retinol, and benzoyl peroxide to control my adult acne. When I tried to use these every day last week to get my desired tan shade, which I did, I seriously overstripped my skin and caused pretty bad sensitization and breakouts.

I’ll keep using these sparingly in the future, but keep in mind that one pad isn’t going to make you bronze, so I feel kind of in a catch-22 there.

I’ve tried a lot of different self tanners and this one is my favorite. It does have a bit of a scent but not nearly as strong as the other brands I’ve tried. I have pretty fair, peach toned skin and this gives me a very natural looking tan.

Not orange-y at all. I do highly recommend getting their glove to apply it which gives it a nice, smooth, even application. And it saves your hands!.

Skinerals californium self tanner is made up of a organic formula that is nut and oil free, gluten and cruelty free and is vegan. This formula is best applied with a bronzing body mitt and super important to exfoliate first.

Apply to clean skin and let dry results. After 8 hours you can shower and if applied correctly their is no streaking effects. Would buy again.

I love this fake tanner. I use the mit to apply it. It doesn’t come off orange. It has a very natural look to it. I find it to be reasonably priced compared to St. Tropez. I was using St. Moritz before, which was really cheap, but it looks really weird when it states coming off.

Skinerals tends to fade more naturally.

I kinda hate this. I love love love the face and body drops. I decided to try this out during a BOGO 40% sale, instead of the drops. Big mistake. The consistency is like runny pudding, there is no “glow” once applied and the most important part – there’s absolutely no color after the end of the day.

I used this consistently under my makeup, for a week – no color has developed. If this is a self tanner, it fails miserably. The face and body drops work much better – and you don’t have to use them daily.

This beautiful iridescent serum delivers an immediate glow to the skin and gradual healthy tan to the skin. I’m always looking for products to give me complexion more luminosity and I find that a tan always makes my complexion look more flawless and healthy.

This product delivers the best of both worlds and while it provides a glow for your complexion, it helps you develop a nice tan underneath. I love that I can use this product alone or as a primer for my makeup.

It is the perfect product to add just a touch of bronze to the skin and a whole lot of glow! It’s so easy to use and applies evenly. I highly recommend this illuminating tanning primer! Gifted by Tanologist.

I saw the tiktok video about using tanning drops as a highlighter and decided to give this trend a try. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of tanning drops before. I chose this brand first over the more expensive brands because of the decent reviews and affordable price.

Well. It works! I’ve been using the medium drops on my face 2x/ week for two weeks now. I mix four drops with my collagen cream and apply to my face at night. On one of those nights I make sure to exfoliate first.

My natural skin tone is very pale with red and pink undertones and prone to freckles and I burn instead of tanning (think Irish red head). After one use of these drops I have a nice natural glow. After two uses I look like a have a fresh tan.

Once I was happy with the results on my face I decided to use them on my whole body next. First application I was very conservative and used maybe 5 drops mixed in with my CeraVe lotion. I didn’t notice much of a difference.

But when I reapplied two days later the color development was much more noticeable. So much so my knees looked a little silly. I guess I overdid it on that spot. Be aware the drops are clear so its hard to tell if you missed a spot.

Do wear gloves or be prepared to wash your hands with soap right after applying. The one area I got a bit of orange stain was my nails.

I love the Tannologist Dark Tan Drops, They always blend and seamlessly and I love that I can add them to any moisturizer or body oil that I please. The one complaint that I have is how brief the instructions are on the back of the bottle.

They basically just say to mix a certain number of drops into your favorite moisturizer and apply, but there’s no warning of using a tanning mitt or some sort of guard to protect her hands, because if you don’t, you’ll end up with orange palms guaranteed! I actually looked up some reviews on YouTube to make sure I wasn’t the only one that had this issue, and it seems like everyone else had the same complaint.

As long as he use a tanning mitt or gloves, you should be fine. A tip that I always give for applying self tanner: even if you use a tanning mitt sometimes the product will seep through a little bit and get on your hands, or most likely, you will apply some of the leftover product onto the tops of your hands to blend in with the rest of your tan— to avoid overly tanned knuckles and cuticles, I use a nail brush to softly scrub those areas so the product density disappears.

Nothing worse than having orange-brown nails!.

I switched from the Ulta brand self-tan mist to this one and this one really surprised me! The Ulta one smelled cheap and left me orange if I accidentally over-applied, but this stuff actually works! My skin looks naturally glowy and warm instead of orange and dull after using this.

I usually moisturize, spray 3-4 mists of this on various parts of my face and rub in evenly with my fingertips. It dried quickly and doesn’t smell atrocious like most self tans do. You will notice your beautiful glow within a few short hours! I also recommend adding another face mist on top of it or SPF because it will leave your skin a tad tacky.

I rub this in, use Mario Badescu rose water and go. Other than the tacky texture, I love this stuff!.

This product is super hydrating, so buyer beware if you have oily skin! I have dry to normal skin, so this is the perfect addition to my nighttime routine. My skin is also very fair, so I notice a difference in the morning after using it.

I love that I get a nice, very light tan by the morning. Not orange at all. I have to use more than 2 sprays though (instructions states 2-3 sprays, but I do about 4 to notice a nice glowing colour by the morning).

I love the smell too, it doesn’t smell like self tanner at all. It is super hydrating though, and I broke out just a little tiny bit on my forehead the first time I used it. So now I just don’t apply as much face cream after washing my face, because the spray will add the extra hydration.

And after doing that, my skin stopped breaking out! I have officially added this product to my daily nighttime routine and couldn’t be happier.

I really wasn’t sure about this product to be honest. I have a huge Rubbermaid tub of products received from subscription boxes. I just kind of threw it in there and forgot about it. I was going through the tub, and found this…why did I not try it earlier??? It’s amazing.

I did my full skin care routine, then hesitantly sprayed it on my face. Let it dry and went to bed. HELLO morning!! I had a beautiful amount of colour, evenly distributed on my face. My tan from Mexico in April was back, and frankly, nicer! I rarely ever leave reviews, but I am in love with this stuff.

I also have the Isle of Paradise drops you can use with your body moisturizer. No streaking, or blotching at all. I don’t use it every day, just every few days so I don’t go overboard. I’m fair skinned, and I like the natural look.

I can definitely see how it would be problematic for those with oily, or acne prone skin may not find this suitable for them.

I was really excited to try this fake tan, I’m very pale so I wear fake tan almost every day and I’ve tried them all, and I mean all of the fake tans out there. Sadly this one did not meet the expectations, so one of the first things I noticed was the packaging – ABSOLUTELY LOVELY! It looks and feels luxurious but not so much that I can see they’ve obviously just spent allot on the packaging instead of the product if that makes sense.

Once I opened the box, first thing I picked up was the mit and brush, it felt great, very high quality and super soft, which is great but it’s nothing I can’t buy off Amazon for half the price. Then I got to the tan… it was tiny.

Now I understand that allot of work has went into this product and I appreciate that but sadly I just can’t justify spending £50 on such a tiny amount of tan when I can buy a bottle of st moritz for £5 which has double the amazing of tan in it.

Like I say, I understand that this product has had a lot of research and science put into it to help keep us moisturised, find the right shade, not go patchy etc etc but I diddnt notice the difference between my st Moritz and this ilmakiage tan….

This tan wasn’t very dark, even though I selected I wanted the darkest tone possible. It was a bit more orange than I thought it would be considering they state there’s no orange tones…. It diddnt last 7 days at all, i left it on overnight and washed it off in the morning and I was shocked at how pale I was, it had came straight off without me even trying, I diddnt scrub or anything! It dried patchy on my face which was disappointing considering I don’t have dry any dry skin and no other tan has done that to my face.

I really wanted this tan to be my saving grace, I really did nice why I was willing to pay such a steep price, but sadly the product just isn’t worth it 🙁 I would price it more around the £20. I bought a similar bundle from coco and eve for £60 and I got a great amount of product that lasted at least a few days, A tan bag, a tan brush, a mit, and an exfoliator, and a discount code for my next purchase.

Which I though was good value! So you can see why I can’t really justify this high price of £50 🙁 EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT – everyone’s skin is different so this tan may be perfect for you, you might aswell give it a go with their 60 day return policy.

Lol as my title says it’s definitely the best self Tanner I’ve tried & I’ve tried MANY. PROS: – I found it came out very evenly, no streaks – easy application – dries practically immediately – unlike others, if you put it on and then go to sleep you won’t be all sticky or wake up with random white hand prints left on yourself lol – you can put clothes on shortly after applying it and they won’t turn orange/brown – smells great – face brush is amazing & my face with some others tends to look super weird the next day with dry spots & ends up rly dark over any blemishes but I find this one didn’t do that & actually moisturized my face – I used the face brush and brushed over my hands and they looked normal!!! Normally with other tanners I just use the mitt and I leave my hands for the most part otherwise they look pure orange … so instead they end up being super white and there’s a clear distinction between where I did and didn’t put tanner.

Not with il makiage! CONS: – I don’t see any option to simply buy the bottle without the glove/brush. Would be nice for those wanting to repurchase – there is only one shade which I’m confused about because it did a whole assessment prior with photos to help match the colour but if there’s only one shade then I’m not sure why that was needed – I personally did not find it as dark as I would prefer Overall great product, I normally don’t spend this much on self-tanner but if there was a darker shade option I’d 100% be hooked for life lol.

If you like a more natural tan look this definitely does it! Plus you can reapply everyday or every few days to build up the tan to a darker colour but I don’t imagine the bottle would last more than a month.

Hope more shades are coming soon but I think I may give it another try with building up the tan & see what results I get! Really love this product and I’ve used many other mousse self-tanners as well as drops that go into cream, none compare to this.

PROS: – No smell (after you rinse off). Just like almost ALL other self tanners, the timeframe from when you put it on until the first time you rinse, it has a self tanner-ish smell. You only have to wait 3 hours to rinse so I can stand a little smell for that small timeframe.

– Goes on evenly with marginal room for error. As long as you use the “tint” of the foam as a guide, you’ll have little to no areas of unevenness and it’s very forgiving even if you miss a spot. – It’s NOT orange (after you rinse).

I read the reviews before trying and there were several that reported they felt like they looked orange but I’m guessing these people put it on and didn’t rinse it off and that’s when they felt “orange.

” It does look orange for those first few hours until you rinse BUT after you rinse, a sun kissed golden brown color remains (the more product you put on, the darker this will be). – It fades seamlessly with no patchy areas.

And I’m not one who exfoliates before usage (which apparently helps decrease splotchy fading) – The mit and kubuki brush are great for application (although you do not need to replace each time you order a new bottle) CONS: – Amount of product needed to maintain color is quite a lot.

I don’t think one bottle would last me a month or maybe it would, but no more than a month. This is using it up to 2 times per week. If this product was less expensive, this would not be such a negative.

– Cost. It’s expensive and on the higher end of expensive, when it comes to self tanning products. In addition, you cannot purchase the foam by itself but must purchase the kit (that includes the mit and kubuki brush).

Having to purchase the kit obviously makes it more expensive and the mit and kubuki brush do not need to be replaced that frequently. With current state of our economy , a LOT of people will not be able to afford this product regularly.

These are my thoughts based on my experience with the 85/66 tanning foam.

I used this product as an allover face tanning product and I liked how easy this is to apply. I used a rubber glove to apply this to my face and it worked really well, but I imagine it would have worked even better with the recommended brush.

Though even using my rubber glove application I didn’t have any streaking at all like promised. It was a bit watery so it did leak to between my gloved fingers, but I wiped that up with a towel and continued on with my application.

I didn’t notice an immediate difference, but in the morning, I did. I really like that this is buildable and you can sleep in it. I like a nice softer tan, so I the fact that I can start off light and build if I want to is great.

I think this is a great product as it did not turn me an odd shade of orange, it turned me a nice shade of tan like these kinds of products are supposed to. The tan did not however last 7 days because I used a facial scrubbing brush on my face and it took the product off, so if you want to keep the tan and build it up, just use soap and water to wash your face at night.

This is an awesome product for Spring and Summer.

I’m typically very wary of self tanners because they never come out right, and I especially wouldn’t use one on my face for fear of an orange, striped face. At 34 I’m also not about to let the sun tan my face naturally.

So I was very excited to try the Undone Beauty Glowed Up Self-Tanning Foam in the Light color. I was not disappointed! It has a guide color to ensure you’re getting every spot but not too ver doing it.

I applied before bed and woke up with a pretty, healthy looking glow that did not look at all like a self tanner. I’m so pleased with the results and so happy to have a product that will give my face a sun kissed appearance without the sun damage! Plus the bottle lasts for 60 applications and the glow lasts 7 days so you’re set for a long time.

I will be recommending this to everyone.

I don’t use self tanners often because I am very pale and they always end up turning me orange, too dark, or end up very streaky. I was skeptical of this one, but was eager to give it a go. I pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to apply.

I have never used a tanning foam before, but really like how this product glided across the skin. I didn’t see much initially, but after a few hours I notice that I already had a nice glow. It wasn’t orange or streaky at all.

I am no pro at self tanners, so this product definitely did all of the work. I think the self tanner can be layered to make it darker, but for someone as pale as me one application was just the right amount.

Overall I would use it again and will purchase more in the future.
