Instant Grati(vacation)?
I was extremely excited to try Vacation Inc.'s Instant Vacation Browning Lotion. My previous experience with self-tanning lotions is terrible - orange skin, skin too dark, streaks, and the list goes on! So not only was I excited, I was also terrified.The first thing I noticed was the SPF 30. This is...

Didnt expect it to be so orange. I immediately washed it off. Would not purchase again
HORRIBLE!
This the WORST bronzing lotion I have ever used. It goes on well and can get it even looking. That is the only plus I can give it. It felt dry-ish on. Laid out in the sun for awhile and when I got up, my towel was completely stained everywhere my body touched it. I took a shower immediately, so I wouldn't stain anything in the house. When the water hit my body, I could see swirls of brown going down the drain. Absolutely NO color left after my shower. What exactly is the point of this stuff? If you put it on, YOU CANT TOUCH ANYTHING. No one can touch you. Get a spot of skin wet or sweat? It will come off and you'll look patchy and terrible. My towel is ruined. My bathing suit is ruined. The chair I stupidly sat on has it on it and it will now transfer to whoever sits on it next, so it's ruined. The lotion wasn't cheap to begin with and now with all my ruined stuff, I'd say it was the most expensive lotion I have ever had the misfortune of buying. Use Maui Babe instead. At least that washes out of your clothes and you still have great color after a shower. Blows my mind that they actually put this trash on the market. Don't they test stuff before they manufacture it? The picture is where my legs touched my towel, so that is what you can expect. In case I haven't gotten my point across yet, DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!
Works Decently
It's not terrible, but I wouldn't recommend it. It stained my clothes and it did not spread easily.
Messy and stinky
I love Studio Tone and was hoping I'd like this similarly. Idk where people are getting chocolate and other claimed scents here. Mine smelled metallic in a way that turns my stomach. Faintly and vaguely like fish blood on a dock? The color was really nice and I thought I could still wear it further from my nose on my legs or something. However the color transfers really badly as other reviews mention. Not worth the trouble.
Beautifully bronzes, but stains!
Bronzes your skin beautifully, but the color transfers to literally everything, even after its dry. Works better if you mix a little with a regular sunscreen, but be prepared that it will end up on your bathing suit, towel, etc. I wanted to love this (I am very pale and loved the idea of looking tan while giving myself sun protection) but the color transfer just doesnt work for an active vacation.
