- Q
Will this clog pores? I have a hard time with self tanner clogging my pores on my legs.
- Asked by Hope
- Official Answer By St. TropezThis will not clog your pores. We have heard from customers who have larger pores in certain areas of the lower leg, etc., that the tan can absorb into those areas and amplify the appearance of the pores. In this case, we recommend shaving when you shower post application.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
can this product be used over a lotion or is it better used under a lotion?
- Asked by giustina
- Official Answer By St. TropezFor a flawless application, please follow the 5 simple steps below: 1. Exfoliate + shave 24 hours prior to self tanning. 2. Immediately prior to application, moisturize any dry areas including hands, wrists, elbows, knees, ankles and feet. 3. Pump product onto your Applicator Mitt and using long, sweeping strokes apply starting at your ankles and working your way up. Ensure all areas are covered before lightly gliding any excess product from the Mitt over your hands and feet. 4. Wait 8 hours, then shower with warm water. 5. To extend and maintain your tan, moisturize daily, exfoliate regularly and reapply as desired.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can i use this product with regular st tropez body mousse on my body, will the colours clash where the neck and chest meet?
- Asked by 2332Honey
- Official Answer By St. TropezYou can use the Classic Mousse on your body, then we suggest using the Purity Facial Mist on your face spraying down the neck and across the décolletage to blend. The Purity range is just a bit lighter than Classic, but the same tone. You can reapply the mist to your face the next day if you want a bit more color and every 2-3 days to maintain.Was this answer helpful to you

New favorite tanning mouse!!
I am a huge St. Tropez fan so when I saw this new product I knew I had to try it. I was drawn to it because of the fact that it was clear but it also caused me to be quite skeptical. But after only one application I'm so impressed I had to write a review already. I'm a fairly pale girl so I'm not sa...

Not worth the money
I bought this hoping it would be an easy way to get a quick tan when needed. This does smell nice upon application but throughout the day that quickly fades and you smell like typical self tanner. This barely gives you a tan. I'm pretty fair from the winter months and even on my skin it barely shows...

Natural looking tan that works on olive skin tone!
Love it. Have tried others that dont alter my color at all or leave orange hue.
It's okay, not great not bad.
I tested this out twice as my first self tanner ever. I think its beginner friendly because it leaves such a faint color change. I used two days in a row to darken it. However, because its clear, its hard to see where exactly ive applied the product. The tan does not last long. The first time i applied the tan, it clung to my left wrist pretty bad for some reason. The next day, i did a second application, showered, and suddenly the color is almost completely gone on my left wrist. I think this leaves a nice color for very pale people who want a natural and slightly golden glow. This definetly isnt for someone who wants to have a deep, more rich tan. The color is nice though so I think its a good beginner tan. This isnt what im looking for, so i think ill return it. Not amazing but not bad, just meh. Oh also, the smell is NOT tropical, more like cleaning supplies. It doesnt last long though. Although sometimes i thought i could taste it in my mouth afterwards…

Would Totally Recommend for a Natural Color
This was my first fake tan purchase and i'm so lucky to have found the one so fast! I apply it on my face and neck with a makeup brush so I can get a natual airbrush finish. This product gives me a natural glow to my face and it gives me color without looking orange. I would say it's for people with a light skin tone. Everytime my sister comes home she uses it and loves it. She says its the best one she's tried! Since I only use it on my face and neck I don't know if it's transfer proof or not. Sometimes a little gets on my shirt when i sleep but it always washes off. There is a scent to it, i wouldn't say it smells amazing but it usually goes away once I wash my face. Overall I love this product and will be repurchasing!
the most natural tan ever!
So easy to apply! No streaking and a very natural looking tan. The face spray has been my go to for the last year, I am so excited they made this formula into a body mousse!!
