Very good tannerI bought this tanner for my daughter to use. We are both fair blondes and with a history of skin cancer in our family, we prefer to add color to our body with tanners from a bottle. My daughter used a different brand that she really liked but it was very expensive - over $30 a bottle. The ulta brand tanner was half the cost and we got it at a real bargain with being able to purchase a 2nd bottle for half off. I will also add that my daughter used a lighter shade in the past and did not get the darkness she wanted so she went with this darker shade. My daughter made sure to exfoliate well before applying the product which is important. I did help with applying it to her back and other areas on back and by making sure that it was evenly applied (I dont think it would have turned out as good without a second person to help, just my 2 cents). A mitt is a MUST to ensure an even application. After leaving it on for the allotted time you could really see it work and the color is great! I have had my share of orange glow from tanners,lol, but this product is brown. It has been 5 days since she applied it and did not touch up (and showered as usual without being too careful) so there are def patchy spots now but after a good exfoliation and reapplication I think that it will blend in well. I also want to say that the mousse is much easier to work with than oil and lotion forms that I have had experience with in the past. For the cost and results of this ulta tanner, I am very pleased and recommend.Not wowedI tried this out when my usual faves (Bondi Sands from another store and Dark Loving Tan) were both sold out on the same day. It was cheap and I love a lot of Ulta's makeup, so figured it would work out. +1 For the scent! To me, it smells like rich chocolate. The "self-tanner" smell really isn't strong at all. +1 for the UNDERTONE!! It's a beautiful golden color that I personally love. Most of the time I favor a darker, more violet undertoned tan. But this color finish I really did like! -1 for how light the tan is. The first time I used it I left it on for the full 3 hours and it definitely showed up, but it wasn't very dark. I'm naturally extremely pale, so I like to go for a much darker tan to really bring my skin alive. This added color to my skin for sure, but not enough for my taste. HOWEVER it is a very natural tan and if you are new to tanning or like a less dramatic tan, this would be a plus for you! -1 short-lasting. Personally, I had to really look closely to see if the tan was still there after about day 4. Usually, my tan lasts about 7 days. Not a huge deal, but I have a really busy schedule and would like to touch up my tan less frequently. -1 Kind of streaky. I've been using fake tan for a while now so I don't think it's my application method that's making it so streaky. I always use a moisturizer prior to use and it still really sticks to my dry patches and the formula kind of clumps a bit? It just goes on stronger in some places no matter what I do. Bonus round: It doesn't like to be layered. The second time I used it I tried to layer on the color (not recommended for most tans) just to see if I could get some more depth out of the color. I definitely did get more color, but of course, it was even streakier and while the color deepened, I still didn't quite achieve my ideal color. I do recommend this brand to someone who is newer to self-tanner OR someone who needs a quick bit of color for something happening the next day.

I have been buying this for about a year now and I LOVE it

I have tried a bunch of other self tanners and this one has been the only one that has stuck with me. I highly recommend for the girlies who are looking for a good tanner that's budget friendly.

Formula changed

I have loved this stuff for years and now it's green and watery and doesn't stick to your skin!!

Awful

I got the light to medium and not only was it too dark it was green. The product is so hard to blend out, it dries too fast and is patchy. In some spots the more I tried blending it the more the product came off and became splotchy(it's not the mitt I use, I've used this mitt with other tanners and the finish is perfectly fine). I also found small build up of the product in what looks like dead skin all over.

Formula changed?

I used this self tanner for a couple years and loved it. It seems recently they must have changed the formula. It barely leaves a tan anymore. I hope they fix this.

Don't waste your money.

I worked at a tanning salon and have been using self tan products for quite awhile. I wanted to give this a chance because of the price…figured it was worth a shot…no. It's so streaky…I cannot for the life of me get it to blend into my knuckles especially. Honestly it's like all the product RUNS straight there. I tried all the tricks in the book but nope just doesn't apply well at well. Oh well.
