ModelCo SUPERTAN Instant Self Tan

Times have changed...I used to lie in the sun for HOURS- I literally lived for the sun- a true sun worshipper! Now, after having a baby, and having a skin cancer removed from my face (leaving a nice big scar I might add), I am faced with having no time to lie in the sun anymore and if I did, I'd probably end up with Melanoma, not to mention very leathery skin! So, sadly, now I have to fake my tan...and I have used a few brands to find the best. Out of all the spray tans I have used, ModelCo Supertan certainly smells the best...kind of a like caramel/ chocolate scent, without that yucky 'fake tan' smell that's hard to cover up. This product goes on smoothly (if you're careful!) and has an instant, natural glow on your skin. It does not take long (a few hours) to develop and when you shower (after a few hours), you are still left with a good result, even after the 'instant' part is washed off. I LOVE the hot pink packaging too. Thumbs up from me!

Every summer I am on the hunt for a good fake tan as despite what most say - they do streak. But this new ModelCo product is awesome, especially with the mitt which means no orange hands! I didn't get any streaking and it was just a lovely, healthy glow that was so easy to achieve. It is going to definitely be my new best friend this summer and I highly recommend it to anyone who has tried all the different fake tan creams and lotions. Oh and this one had such a lovely smell as well! I noticed it straight away.

I'm one of those people who is forever on the hunt for a great self tanning product that does what it says it will do and will give me a fantastic dark but natural looking tan. This year in particular I have been doing the research into one that does stink! ModelCo SUPERTAN totally lived up to what it said it would do, it gave me a great looking tan and even better I didn't smell the next day. I even trained the next morning before showering it off and it didn't leave me feeling sticky and smelly like all other tanning products do. I also used the mitt to apply. On the first leg I freaked out a little as it was molting and leaving pieces of fluff all over my leg, but that soon stopped and it didn't affect my tan application.

This product does work and leave your skin looking very tan BUT its very strong and made my knees quite orange which i had to scrub off also if not shaken a lot the moose will be very runny and stains anything it comes into contact with. It washed off in the shower the day after i used it. But other than this the product made my legs look instantly tan and from a distance it was quite even.

I liked that this product did what it said it would and it didn't smell bad like many other tanning products do. I used it the day I was going out and it was really strong even though I've got med-dark skin it looked a bit fake. It seemed to tone down a bit after a shower the next day but my knees looked a bit orangey. Including the Mit was great but it only lasted for the first application.

I was initially pretty sceptical about this product as I have had so many bad experiences with fake tanners that I generally just stick to tinted moisturisers and don't bother with actual tanning products. I was also a bit worried because it came out of the bottle looking really dark. This wasn't a big worry though as when it was on the skin it lightened up and smoothed in well. It's great to see that it has in-built Macadamia Oil to moisturise the skin and it doesn't smell yuck either. Great product and I would definitely reuse and repurchase it.
