Bondi Sands Light/Medium Self Tanning Foam 200 ml

Safety seal was broken so unuable

Hello universe! I cannot speak for others. But for my objective (a natural, healthy skin tone that isn’t necessarily TAN but rather NOT PALE, keep reading). I am one of the most pale people on the planet. And that’s no joke. I’m a natural red head guy with skin as white as milk. I think men don’t use products like this that often but I often get made fun of for how pale I am. So here we are! To start, I do NOT want to look “tan”. That would be too obvious. I want to look NOT PALE. if that’s your goal, this may be helpful. I have tried a few other brands, including jergen’s natural glow (light to medium), Jergen’s self tan mousse (light to medium), and tan luxe drops (also light to medium). All of these products would tint me orange at various body crevices but would not actually add color to my arms/legs/skin (sorry couldn’t think of a better way to say this haha), even when I heavily exfoliate and moisturize the dry areas. I would have weird looking limbs in the sunlight that would make me look like I got poisoned and my arms and legs were still WHITE AF. Or, I tried the St Tropez instant mousse (again, light to medium) and that product was comprehensive but made it look like I put an orange-y tan layer of skin all over my body. It even peeled off on my arm and made me think I was wearing a tan skin suit. It was very noticeable HAHAHA. Anyways, that’s my background before trying this product. I’ve watched countless tutorials on how to apply this stuff and I was pretty confident it was not user error, and that My skin just wasnt compatible with most common tanners. I was about to give up. I figured I would try this. Honestly I had low expectations because I thought, going into this, that this product would be like the St Tropez instant mouse and make me look ridiculously tan/orange (I AM TRYING TO LOOK LIGHT -> MEDIUM, NOT LIGHT -> WANNABE VERSION OF OOMPA LOOMPA). My first attempt with the product, I left it on overnight. This was kinda gross, similar to other tanners. Also, the coconut smell is nice, but as a guy it’s not very subtle. Secondly, when you sleep in it, your entire room smells like a coconut bomb went off and I still can’t get the smell completely out. So I don’t really recommend sleeping in this product if you can help it. I still gave 5 stars for scent though because this scent somehow masks the self tan scent that other products give you. And I know you may be thinking “no way. Every self tan smells like shit”. And I would believe you. I’ve been there. But they put a shit ton of coconut in here. BUT TO ALL MY EXTREME* PALE BROS AND SISTERS OF THE WORLD, I have a pro tip. If you wear it the full time (6 hours or so), maybe you’ll like the color. But for me, it was a bit too tinted and was kinda a giveaway that I was fake tanning. I think my friends could tell. My objective (which is probably different than others, who want to look beach tan) is to look healthy and not radiantly white. I just want enough skin color that I don’t look like milk, and people can still make fun of me for being slightly paler than average, but ideally nobody would notice that I’m using a product. And MY TIP (finally, sorry for writing so much) is to apply this for 1-3 hours, and then rinse. You might be thinking, that’s not allowed! This ISNT an express tan! But let me tell you - the back of the bottle even says you can rinse after one hour. Now, after one hour, my face, and upper body, look perfectly colored to the point where I am not a ghost, but I am not tan. I am a healthy normal skin tone. My legs usually require 2-3 hours before rinsing (or do a second application of 1 hour, which is what I’m doing as I write this review hahaha). I think your leg skin is thicker. Or my leg hair is causing problems hahaha. Anyways. That has helped me to find a perfect solution to my problem. I will apply in the evening after work for an hour or two, or in the morning before leaving (after following a normal routine of shower > exfoliate with a hand mitt > moisturize elbows, armpits, knees, ankles, and wrists). I hope this helps someone. It would have helped me a while ago if someone (a guy preferably) helped me with this and gave me a solution I was looking for. It usually lasts around half a week. So you may have to apply twice a week. I know that’s not ideal. But if youre only wearing it for an hour or two, like me, it’s pretty easy to fit in to your routine. I also found a mitt on Amazon that came with a face mitt applicator - this face mitt thing saved my life. I was always afraid to apply self tan to my face (again, as a guy I feel like it will be MUCH MORE NOTICEABLE, if you screw this shit up - people will notice you look weird and you can’t put makeup on to fix your mistakes) - but a face tan mitt saved the day. Again, when you only leave this product on for an hour, it really doesn’t do a TON, so you almost can’t mess it up. I’m serious. I even soaked my finger in the product for an hour on accident, and when I rinsed it off the finger was just slightly darker than the rest. Easy mistake. Again, that’s another perk of only keeping this on a short period of time, there’s less chance of error. Good luck friends!

Autobronzant effet très naturel et sans trace grâce au gant . Texture mousse très facile à étaler.

Ho utilizzato la versione light-medium e ho ottenuto un colore molto naturale adatto a chi ha pelle chiara. Niente toni arancio. Sono rimasta sorpresa per l’effetto! Sembra abbronzatura naturale! Odore molto gradevole. Dopo la doccia non rimane nessun odore. Attenzione nelle ore di applicazione prima del risciacquo perché in quel momento il colore si trasferisce ovviamente sugli abiti. Io ho usato un vecchio asciugamano scuro. Super soddisfatta. Credo che rinnoverò l’applicazione a distanza di una settimana.

Lätt att använda med handske och blir fin färg snabbt

Łatwo się rozprowadza przy użyciu rękawicy, kolor jest niezwykle naturalny. Opaleniznę można stopniować. U mnie trzyma się niecały tydzień. To mój pierwszy samoopalacz, który nie śmierdzi, gdy się utlenia.
