Fake Bake and St. Tropez for the win!

I have to say I have a hard time deciding if I love Fake Bake more than I love St. Tropez but for different reasons. I love that with this tanner you get the actual product, a separate spray applicator, a pair of reusable latex gloves, and a mitt! I was very new to the self tanning thing but after reading the instructions, exfoliating the day before, making sure my legs were hair free, and figur...read moreing out the best technique for myself, I applied my first application! After putting on the latex gloves, I put the mitt over one hand, spray about three sprays onto the mitt, and do gentle circular motions starting from my feet and working up to my face. The smell of this tanner is very summery in my opinion, it just makes me want to go on vacation, and the color is absolutely gorgeous. I have a medium brown complexion and tan very quickly in the summer so I try to stick to one application a week during the winter time. The tan looks completely natural, no sign of any orange skin, it dries very quickly, and I don't worry about sweating it off. One con of this product; it seems to stain intimates a tiny bit so be weary about what time you apply so you don't risk staining your bed sheets (hasn't happened to me.) I also love the fact that this formula is gentle, I can comfortably apply this to my sensitive face and it does not burn or aggravate my skin in any way, and I just love knowing that my face matches the rest of my body! I use three sprays every time I apply to a different part of my body and have had this product for about 3 months; I would say it lasts a while but that's depending on how much you use it. For a high end tanner I think the price point is pretty fair too; especially considering that it actually works!

Great Self Tanner!

I LOVE how easy this is to apply and how fast you see results! I had a 3oz bottle of this which lasted me through a summer and a half :D (I like a very natural tan look so I usually apply this 1-2 times a week). This has a very nice and pleasant coconut scent unlike some other self-tan products I've tried. Just spray this onto the mitt and then gently buff it into the skin. I don't usually bother ...read morewith exfoliation before I apply this and never had an issue with it. (I do moisturize on a regular basis so no dry patches) It dries fast and leaves the skin feeling smooth. 9 out of 10 times I get the perfect application/tan from this. be careful not to splash any water onto the skin after it dries or it will leave a mark.

Natural Glow

I LOVE this self tanner. I appreciate it because it was super easy to apply and the color was instantaneous. It dries quickly and there was no streaking or patchy areas. The color looked completely natural with my skin. Honestly, this self tanner made my skin look flawless and airbrushed. LOVED it.

Works well

I recently tried a bunch of highly rated self tanners and this was one of the ones I liked. The color came in pretty good and I REALLY love the smell of this one. The only reason I didn't give it 10 stars was because it's a little messy when applying it.

Messy and Streaky

I tried this and another popular self tanner and this one didn't compare. I do like the smell of it, but it's EXTREMELY messy to apply. It comes out of the bottle as a liquid that gets over everything in your bathroom. It literally took me longer to clean up the mess than it did to apply it. Once I did manage to get some on my skin, it was very runny and hard to blend in. Because of that, the end result was pretty streaky and blotchy. Definitely not my favorite self tanner!

So easy and fast!

I LOVE this product. The first few times I tried it, I did it at night and woke up with nice and tan skin. It dries quickly and is incredibly easy to apply. One day I decided to try it before work when I only had about 10 extra minutes. It looked amazing and didn't come off on my clothes at all. I am just obsessed with this product

Meh.

This is a pretty standard self tanner. Beauty gurus in the youtube and blogging world usually give this a very high opinion and talk about how it gives such a nice, natural color. It does give a very natural looking color. It doesn't smell awful. And it does fade more nicely than other self tanners I've tried. However, if you're looking for a miracle in a bottle, your excitement is sure to be sh...read moreort lived. It's a good tanner, but not anything out of this world. Give it a try if you're willing to face the sticker shock, as it's quite spendy for what you get.

Love it!

I have used a few self tanners and this is my favorite. It smells great and dries super quickly. I have olive toned skin and it turns into a perfect tan colour. It is a very light tan but I used it a couple days in a row and it became darker. Lasts quite a while too.

Pretty Good Product

I'm definitely a big fan of Flawless! The smell is really great and the tan it gives me is on the darker side, which I like. There are really only 2 issues I have with this self tanner... First, it's in the form of a liquid, which can make application a little messy (I usually prefer lotions). Second, it's very sticky on the skin once it dries. I put self tanners on at night and it was ki...read morend of hard to sleep with this one on. But, with the exception of those 2 things, I like everything else about this product.

real nice self tanner

I purchased this at my hair salon and they told me it is the same formula as the airbrush tan they do in the salon. It was on sale so I got a great price. It comes with gloves and a mit. You wear the gloves and use the mit and spray the mit and then apply until you see no streaks. The mitt works great and it gives you instant bronze tan. The smell is nice and it doesnt stain clothes. It gives a great color and ive applied it and wore it out and never looked streaky. Its a very good product.
