You guessed it, i went ORANGE!! First impression was this has a great reputation, lets try it! and the fact it came in a pink bottle, bonus! However, thats where all the awesomeness stops for me. I done everything right, from shaving 3 days prior, exfoliating twice a day, and then using the mit to apply......Streaks everywhere :( I have never had this much trouble with self tanning with other brands. I also did not like the smell. I would reccommend to freinds but i would tell them my experiance first.

Tips: Do a patch test first!! purchase the tan remover from model Co in case you do turn orange. and deffinately use a Mitt. Good Luck xx
Nice tan, is my go to if I need to be tanned in only a couple of hours, is more of a golden colour though.
Tips: Make sure you have prep'd properly on your legs or is will show terribly! Use a applicator mitt.. amazing results, can buff out tan imperfections easy!
Love this stuff, works well drys quickly and along as you take your time to apply this then you will have a perfect tan. Problem is that its a bitch to get off.
It was an ok product to use, I like the natural tan look and have my skin abit darker which is nice but the only sucky thing is that it doesn't cover up tan lines and have to keep applying or put suga baby bronzer on top and it only made a difference with one application over night but I wouldnt mind using it again but just have to keep applying once a day or two
I first purchased this after bumping into a friend in a pharmacy, after seeing how lovely and tan she was (and me forever trying to find something that helps create some colour on my fair skin) I asked what she used and she directed me to this product.
Before I tried this I prepped my skin- shaved and exfoliated atleast 24hrs before in order to get the best results. I also bought the Blend buffing mitt in order to avoid streaking and avoid orange hands!
Using the mitt makes it really quick and easy to apply and the great thing about this product is that it dries fast, so your not standing there for ages waiting for it to dry. However it would still be recommendable to wait at least 20 minutes before getting dressed. To get the best coverage use small circular buffing motions with the mitt in order to cover all areas and not miss any spots.
I found I only needed one coat of this and after waiting a few hours I had a nice evenish tan. I did learn however to avoid drier areas as it tends to stick to that and make them look darker! avoid dry areas such as knees, backs of ankles and elbows. With my second time using it I would quickly brush over those areas rather than buff or apply moisturiser beforehand so it wouldn't stick as bad to it.
Overall the product was good but not amazing. The colour was alright, a tad orangish tinge to it so a little on the faker side however I am quite fussy as personally I prefer that more natural looking tan (which is very hard to find and achieve!). I still havent finished the bottle- sits in the back of my bathroom cupboard as I use other tanning products ( absolutely loving playboy airbrush tan atm! ) however I still reach from it time to time when I run out of my other products. It is reasonably priced however if you haven't used it before and needed a tan before a special event, I suggest trialling well before that in order to perfect the application and see if its right for you.
Tips: prep your skin atleast 24 hours beforehand- shave and exfoliate. Also use the Mitt to avoid streaking and orange hands
I liked this product, it smelled good both during application and while the tan is developing. I have medium toned skin and found the colour on application really dark (which was great for an instant tan on an evening out) and the end result was a good natural colour. I followed the directions carefully and still ended up with dark patches on my knees and the odd streak, but I put it down to the need to perfect my application skills! I loved that it survived a night of dancing and didn't transfer onto my sheets afterward
Tips: Exfoliate before application!
This is the self tanner that sparked my love for mousse tanners. I liked the smell of it, it was easy to apply and it created a nice natural looking tan.
I’ve had a couple bad experiences with other products, but I really liked this self tan. My skin turns a beautiful brown with no orange undertones. Completely streak free, and doesn’t smell bad like some other products. I absolutely love the bright pink bottle!
Tips: Exfoliate and dry skin properly before applying. Also rub a pea size amount of moisturiser on knees and ankles before applying self tan. This really help to get a even tan.
ModelCo Selftanners are the best I have tried and I always find myself going back to them. This mousse applies seemlessly and gives a DEEP dark tan that looks natural and not orange on my paper white Irish skin. ModelCo is very affordable and the scent of this mousse has a nice coconutty smell, it doesn't smell of fake tanner at all.
Tips: Exfoliate before applying for best even results
Unless your legs are super prepared for this tan, it wont work.
I went a weird orange color more often than not, i still have the same one bottle i for the past year, so it hasn't made it to the empty stage just yet. I do keep it around just in case i run out of tan.
It streaked mostly on the shins on my legs and then went really streaky on the sides. I have used mouses before and found them to be idiot proof, these are not. I had to apply too coats to get an even all over color, hence i would probably go more orange than a nice natural brown.
Tips: Exfoliate your skin for 3 days in a row prior, even a wax 4 days before tanning will help remove any dead skin. Moisturize all week consistently twice a day, these steps help prepare the skin for an all over even tan. Use a buffing mitt and do upwards strokes first before buffing around, making sure your hands and feet are done last. sweep over the knee and elbow. Even putting a moisturizer on hands, feet, elbows and knees will prevent product from sticking to those areas.
