Review (5/5): BEST TANNING LOTION EVER! NO STREAKS! FOOLPROOF!
This is the best tanning lotion I have found! I love the ease of application and the color once it darkens. There are no orangy/oompa loompa undertones. A word of caution--the lotion is GREEN! I was worried I had a bad batch or something when I first opened it but it is supposed to be this way. I apply it with a black velor/velvet type mitt and I have never once had a streak. Here is the step-by-step foolproof way to get a nice, even and natural looking tan:
1. Shower and exfoliate everywhere, especially elbows, ankles, knees. I use a facial exfoliator and then I just use those exfoliator gloves for my body because if you use something with oils in it like a body scrub the lotion won't penetrate as well.
2. Dry off completely. Pull hair up/away from face. Apply regular lotion generously to feet, knees and elbows. Then start applying the tanning lotion with the mitt. I start from the legs and work my way up. Calves-->thighs/butt-->stomach/sides/what you can reach of your back-->arms-->chest-->neck-->face.
3. Run the mitt with leftover lotion on it over the tops of your feet and backs of hands.
4. Use black latex-free gloves to rub in some regular lotion over your feet/ankles until absorbed. I also apply a little regular lotion to my wrists so there is not a line. You can use the black gloves to also apply sunscreen or other face lotion if you need to.
5. Let dry completely before dressing. This lotion is awesome because it hardly rubs off on your clothes, and any that does get on clothes will wash out in the wash. Just make sure you rinse your body off (after it's been on your body for several hours and tan is set) before exercising or you'll sweat it off onto your clothes!
I have never used a better tanning lotion, and the price point is amazing!
