Gradual Tan

I use the tanning mouse once a week, the gradual tan a couple times a week, and the face water every other day. I LOVE these products! I'm left with a natural looking tan, completely different from other products I've used, and WAY better than getting a spray tan. The face tan water is my favorite because it leaves me with a natural looking tan and makes my face glow, and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I will use these forever, on my wedding day, and even in the summer so I can keep having a nice tan without worrying about tan lines or getting sun damage.

Gradually getting my tan.

I have LOVED Bali's tanning foam for the past year, so I was excited to try this new product believing that it would be just as great. But the gradual tan lotion is just OKAY.

pros:

- gets dark much faster than any other gradual tanning lotions I've used, I was 2 shades darker after one application (to compare, with the tanning foam I get 6 shades darker after one application)

Cons:

- very orange in tone compared to tanning foam, especially on hands and neck

- fades unevenly and is splotchy

- for how intense and quickly the color develops, the lotion should be colored so you can see where it's been applied and ensure even application (it is white). Most gradual tan lotions take a week or more of daily application to achieve the color development that this product achieves in one application

Overall, I'm unimpressed. I am going to try it as a maintenance product in between my tanning foam applications, which is what I initially bought it for but I have low expectations. My only hope is that the tanning foam will be brown enough and fade evenly enough to compensate for the orange tone and spottiness of this product.

As of now, I'd recommend picking up a gradual tanning lotion at the local grocery at half the cost.

Noticeable colour after first application. Doesn’t take long to build at all, only concern is that if used everyday it tends to be a little orange & if not applied and rubbed in properly can end up with streaks.

Pros of this product are the more subtle scent and fast results, I saw a difference the day after my first application! However the biggest con is the colour is pretty orange, if you have warm/yellow undertones or a natural tan then it looks even more orange - not ideal. Still a good product though
