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...

Definitely Bronzing
Well, it smells good and it definitely instantly bronzes you! Be careful because it is like, really brown, literally as brown as the bottle. I let it dry but then I was sweating in the Florida sun amd it stained my Lulu bag and my swimsuit. Non-lasting.
Yeah!... oh noooo
This stuff gets on EVERYTHING! This is something you take to the beach, apply it only when you have your bikini on, and probably only do your legs. You then have to rub it in extremelyyyy well or else it comes out incredibly streaky and dont touch anything after or put any clothes on because it gets on everything and the transfer is crazy. The color tint is nice in the essence that it gives you an instant bronze but other than that.. this has no benefits. Out of all the tanning and instant tanning products ive used this is one of the worst.
Really works!
The weather is suddenly warm and sunny and I want to wear shorts...My legs are lily white. I bought this in hopes that it would give me some color, and it is amazing. Applies easily, just wash your hands after. It does transfer to clothing, so be careful.
Not worth it
This lotion smells lovely, and that's where the positives end. It doesn't blend so it stays streaky on my skin and it rubs off on everything I touch. I'm very pale so that could be the issue, but it also appears very orange and unnatural on me. I was really looking forward to using this in early summer when I don't want to expose everyone at the beach to my pasty skin, but I don't have the guts to wear this lotion in public.
Awful!
Its so bad dont waste your money. If you start sweating itll streak, it smells, and it stains!
