My new go-to. Fantastic tanner with no irritation!
I've been using this for a few weeks now and so far, I'm super impressed. I'm a long-time self-tanner user, and my go-to has been Loving Tan Delux Bronzing Mousse. This...is just as good! First, I'd like to note that I'm generally allergic to most self-tanners. I've never figured out what exactly bothers my skin, but I usually get some sort of rash on my upper arms and lower legs. I get absolutely NO irritation with Darksyde.  Like Loving Tan, Darksyde develops slowly, even after you wash it off. So you may think you aren't tan after you shower, but come the next day, you're glowing. The smell is subtle, but still classic self-tanner, so I choose to use it at night and shower again in the morning. On my extremely fair yellow-undertone skin, the color is golden, not orange or greenish brown. It's like an almost-sunburn tan, which strangely, is totally what I'm going for.<br /><br />The only con I've found so far is that application is VERY difficult. Even with vigorous exfoliation and proper moisturizing, the product still goes on streaky. It's like it almost sticks to the skin in a weird way. On the plus side, after rinsing, it does NOT look streaky. So, don't be afraid if you look like a disaster while you're brewing. All in all, I still give it 5 stars! definitely worth the $!
