Banana Boat Summer Color Sunless Lotion by Banana Boat, Self Tanner Review

9.5

Finally, an inexpensive self tanner worthy of gushing over. How do we love thee? Let us count the ways: 1) Remarkably realistic color (and so much of it!) that's more golden brown than that of competitors; 2) A truly moisturizing lotion -- oil-free, packed with aloe and vitamin E and non-sticky; 3) A smell you won't crinkle your nose over. But its "streak-free" claim? Well, the lotion's tint helps, but no self tanner can ever be completely streak-free. (Note to companies: Prove us wrong.)

Radiant Glow

I love this formula from Banana Boat because it gave my light skin a healthy and radiant glow and was so easy to use. I loved that the formula wasn't greasy and didn't streak. The color adds a soft tint to your body and is absorbed quickly for a quick color addition to make your skin look healthy. It is a soft and subtle change and won't turn your hands orange on application. — 3 years, 8 months ago

Doesn't stink!
teshie (396 reviews)

I'm subtracting a star because this stuff is freakin' IMPOSSIBLE to find. Other than that irritation, this self-tanner is fantastic. It gives natural, non-streaky color at a doable price. Best of all, it doesn't smell at all once it absorbs, so I don't feel self-concious when I wear it. — 3 years, 2 months ago
