Bondi Sands

The color is nice, and the foam spreads reasonably easily. When applying, there’s a coconut scent, but the smell of DHA comes through later, at least for me, quite clearly. The tan doesn’t always fade very neatly from the skin. Quite expensive, in my opinion, you can get the same quality cheaper. [hashtag]

I’ve tried 4 other tanning mousses, and sadly all of them ended up in the trashcan. The problem was they were always: 🤎 too dark (I’m pale af) 🧡 too orange (I have a neutral undertone leaning cool) 🐯 too patchy/streaky I have improved my pre-tanning technique but after trying this tanner I’m never trying any other tanning product again. I used the isle of paradise brush on my body and the accompanying self-tanning serum in sapphire from Bondi sands on my face. The tan IS subtle but it’s definitely there. However I did use it for more hours than directed (6 hrs) before rinsing off with lukewarm water, which might’ve helped in deepening the color. The tan is still there after 5 days (the face faded more due to my skincare). Who is this for? -those with fair - > super pale skin -those who have a neutral/cool undertone -those who want a more subtle but buildable tan So if you don’t fit that category then I don’t recommend you spend the money on this self-tanner. But if you do then be prepared to find your holy-grail 🥰🤎

I was a bit skeptical due to comments about a bad smell but was pleasantly surprised, it smells like cocoa but the scent fades quite quickly so it doesn't become very annoying. I have so far used Dove's self-tan lotion and think Bondi Sands' is much better, it dries quickly and isn't sticky like Dove's, the smell is much milder. The color itself is also more natural and nice (I am very fair-skinned, usually use NARS Chantilly), I use it together with Bondi Sands tanning drops and it gives an even and nice result that lasts long.
