Bondi Sands Everyday Gradual Tanning Milk | Long-Lasting, Tanning Body Moisturizer Enriched With Aloe Vera and Vitamin E for Glowing Skin

Perfect tann! It's a nice tint and has a different glow to it then others I really love it a lot.

(I am kidding/my review is super long.I’m sorry, and I hope you’re ready)I have a VERY olive complexion that gets very tan easily if I sunbathe. This isn’t quite as dramatic of an effect as a day at the beach, BUT it’s a really great substitute for a bunch of sun damage (I have hyperpigmentation AND acne scars, that are being treated; plus I’m over 35(I’m 36)*Disclaimer * I’ve already used multiple parentheses........ this is gonna be, well long ( like who writes their whole rout... nope not gonna do it again in the disclaimer too! So turn back now if you don’t care about how I use this*Its really easy to apply and I use it on my entire body; except my chest, face, and neck. (On those areas, I use a clear serum that gets mixed with my moisturizer by Tanologist.) The only downside is that for some reason, it dries out my skin (even though it’s marketed as a moisturizer.The audacity is palpable!). I just use my regular moisturizer in the mornings when I do this because I always use this product at night because the smell makes me want to cocoon away from everyone (it doesn’t smell great, but I deal with it).I don’t mind the smell too much, but it does make my fluffy, rainbow, tie dye, robe smell (not my pjs or my clothing the next day). I just spritz some body splash or perfume on my skin and I’m good to go. I work with kids, (they smell worse than me) and I’m always washing my hands or using sanitizer/rubbing alcohol. So it’s durability is impressive. It performs well against: mud, getting wet all the time (Those children smell worse than me because of it! And they don’t even know! dirty children......so dirty 🤦🏽‍♀️ 😪😷), and general life Showering daily (Mostly, if I’m being totally honest), shaving once a week (again when necessary), or even maybe 🤔, 2 times a weekIt lasts a few days (2-3). So, on the weeks that I am motivated and/or have an event, I use this at most 3 days in the week and I am very pleased with the results! I have tried several different methods, and several different brands; but this is so easy. It absorbs/dries in no time (2-3) minutes. Then, I just wash my hands, carefully getting a few key areas: fingers, palms, wrists and knuckles. I leave the majority of the top of my hand alone, put on my pjs and I’m done (It is the exact same amount of steps. I could care less about having dry skin to sleep. It impedes nothing that happens in beds.) I do to go to bed right away my sheets aren’t stained, And the price is great, (even at full price).The bottle is only half empty after a month and a half of regular use; twice a week for most weeks of the past month (3 times a week a few times throughout, when I had to for a special occasion, or something *wink *wink*, like that). It’s (basically) $14 to be tan for almost 3 months. That’s a good deal to me.

Love this brand for gradual tanning lotion goes on great and looks good especially with my fair skin tone it doesn’t make me look orange or have a bad odor.

I use the BS mousse and use this to freshen my tan and especially on my hands, which I wash a lot so I need to apply every night before bed. Great neutral brown color no orange at all. I’m pretty pale, blonde hair blue eyes red/pink undertones cool skin tone. Violet tanners make my skin look very red/purple but green base cancels the red and pink undertones really well.

It works, but I kind of hoped it would be darker. This is probably the lightest/mildest tanning lotion I've ever used. If you're looking for something very subtle, this is your product! Just not personally what I was hoping for.Otherwise, the application is good; a little goes a long way, and as long as you have a good application technique, it'll be pretty even. The smell is pleasant - like a mixture of chocolate and coconut. The only area that became a little splotchy and oversaturated was my toes. I use a makeup brush (blush brush) to apply the product to my hands and feet and go very lightly on my fingers and toes (and my fingers were fine), so again, not sure what happened there, but it could be user error. I decided to start skipping my toes after my third application and they look okay now. Oddly, it seems like it really does not want to stick to my shins, and I know you're probably thinking that's probably because of shaving, but it sticks to my arms better than anywhere on my body and I shave those more often than everywhere else. Very weird, but I'm going to assume that's probably due to some unknown thing that I'm doing.Zero patchiness with fading, though I may be applying it too often to give it a chance to fade. I shower every two days and applied this every other day. If it was applied not on a shower day, I dry brushed my body first.Do not apply this to your face, it will dry it tf out. It does not dry the skin on my body out, but it was so drying on my face I swear it temporarily gave me new wrinkles. Can't explain that either 🤷‍♀️.After 4 full body applications, I am ~⅔ of the way through the bottle, so assume you'll get around 6 full body applications from it. A little does go a long way but you're still using a lot of product at a time. It goes quicker than you expect.I have had zero issues with this color transferring to anything but skin! My boyfriend helped me apply it to my back, with gloves, and he still managed to get a noticeable streak on his arm and thigh somehow, lol. However, I do not wear many white clothes nor do I have light sheets. My sheets are brown, and all the underwear and pajamas I wore after applying this (and standing naked for ~5 minutes to let it set) were dark in color. Lighter colors worn the day after application saw no transfer. YMMV.Overall, I was not wholly dissatisfied with this product but I will not be buying it again. I probably would if it yielded a darker result.
