Tanceuticals Facial Self Tanner - CC Self Tanning Lotion for Face Gives Natural, Long Lasting Sunless Tan - Fresh Coconut Scent - Won't Clog Pores or Cause Acne - Easy to Apply - Dark Shade 50ml

This is a dual rating: Face Tanner/Dark & Body Tanner Ultra Dark. Firstly, I’m fair w/some freckles and red undertones. However I do get relatively tan if I abuse myself in the sun—I don’t! I would rate the face tanner as very good. It’s a nice golden brown color on my skin. Although, I did need two applications, back to back, to get the color I like. I live on the gulf coast/Beach so being darker year around doesn’t raise eyebrows. The face tanner does have a less DHA smell then others I have used. No streaking and fades naturally. Now, the ultra dark body tanner is spectacular. One application and I was tan...two applications (2nd day) and I was week on the beach brown. It’s a superb golden brown color. Pretty much matched my normal tan without the red undertones. Hands down the best and deepest color I’ve ever gotten from a self tanner. No streaking so far but I there were a few spots around my feet that got a bit too dark. This is an intense tanner so follow a good application routine. Also, it does have a tanner smell once it develops...I would not wear on a date, for example. I’m a guy, if that matters.

I have used this product for over two years now & am very pleased with the results. Leaves a very natural tan.

Best I've ever used. I was somewhat skeptical that this was the best. I found it recommended by a website on sunless tanning. I'd been using sunless tanning products for years and I had a brand that I thought was pretty good. But I wanted something without a tint. Then I got an invitation to an upscale pool party about a week away. I knew that the women would have great tans. The guys would be mixed. So, I pulled the trigger and ordered the product. Well, it IS the best I've ever used. The tan is significantly better. Two applications a couple of days apart gave me a very deep tan. I also got the face tanner, and it is excellent. One application gave me an excellent face tan. The product dries quickly, which is a bonus. So, now I'm ready for the high end party and I have the best product for the future. A few of tips. First, I wear Nitrile gloves to apply the product. Second, I transfer the product to a pump action bottle. I got two pump-action Dial hand soap dispensers for a dollar each, dumped the soap and inserted the body tanner in one and the face tanner in the other. That allows me to get just enough body tanner with just one pump with one hand. Third, for the face I put one pump into a small bowl. Then I spread part of the cream into a thin film on the side of the bowl. Then I use just one or two fingers to apply a thin film to my face. This allows me to apply the cream to my face in very small amounts each time, so I don't get dark spots from cream buildup. Also, feel free to push the product well up into your hair line. The product will not color your hair. Just one pump gives enough product to do two or three applications for the face. I wish that I could do a half a pump, but I can't, and end up using the excess on my legs. So, even though the face tanner container is only two and a half ounces (I think), it will last a long time.

To start...I'm not an avid self tanner. Every product I've used over the years when I've gotten an itch to be a bit darker has left me either orange, too dark, or splotchy. I didn't go into this with high hopes at all, but it exceeded my expectations. I'm white. Like translucent white. With very red undertones...when I do tan in the sun it's looks more red than sunkissed brown. I did a small test patch on my leg the day before to make sure it wasn't going to be bright orange on my face, and seeing how dark it got on that spot overnight I opted to take a day and stay home so I could wash it off if it was getting too dark. The cream itself is very smooth and moisturizing...great for my dry skin. It did burn a bit at first but no red skin irritations. The color was good for me, it is definitely a bit 'warm', not a true brown, more like when I tan in the sun naturally. If you have cool undertones, I can see where it may look more orange than it did on me. Be warned though...this stuff STINKS. Smells great for about ten minutes...after that, pure DHA smell. Don't expect to leave the house if you do it during the day, it smells like burnt underarm hair. Other than that, didn't rub off on white pillows, not splotchy, and there's quite a lot in that little tube. Expect if I keep it up it would last probably a month, month and a half.
