Self-tanning addict with high standards
I recently stopped using tanning beds after 15 years, so I was doing a lot of research on Amazon and other beauty websites for the best self-tanner.<br />After reading tons of reviews from about 75 self-tanners (of all price ranges) I purchased one.<br />I was pleasantly surprised by the DarkSyde  Ultra Bronze self-tanning lotion.<br /><br />**Pros**<br />Price is great!<br />---It was under $15 with Amazon Prime.<br /><br />Lasted longer than I thought it would.<br />---I would say it lasted about 5-7 days. Many tend to last 2-3 days.<br /><br />Easy application<br />----Don't freak out that it's green in color for application.  It turns to a bronzed color on your skin as it develops over 1-4 hours.<br />----Be sure to use a tanning mitt (can purchase on Amazon, Ulta or Sally Beauty Supply stores for $5 to $8)<br />---For your face, I would recommend a make-up sponge.<br />---For additional precaution to not stain your fingers and palms, I wear the disposable gloves I use when I color my hair.  You can also purchase them in 10-12 packs at the store in the cleaning products section.<br /><br />***Cons***<br />I miss the tanning bed!<br /><br />All in all, this is a great product that can be used to achieve a dark color, several applications per bottle and is very inexpensive.
