Tanologist Self Tanner Mousse, Dark Self Tan Mousse, 6.76 Fl Oz

I absolutely hate the smell of self tanner. It makes me sick to my stomach. Thankfully, this product has other scent in it so it’s not so overwhelming. I can smell it a tiny bit, but it’s very faint, I’m debating not even rinsing it off this morning. Usually I’m in the shower the second my eyes open because I hate that specific smell! I’m very fair skinned, so most self tanners look orange, or just too extreme, if that makes sense. Like it’s obvious that I’m wearing self tanner. This product isn’t like that! I typically would buy a light or medium shade, but I got dark this time, and I love how it turned out. This truly looks like a natural tan on my skin. But if you’re expecting to wake up looking 5 shades darker, this probably isn’t for you. I’m curious if this will layer well, I might put another layer on and see! I thought I’d not love that it was clear, because how do you see where you put it? But application was fine as long as you pay attention to where you put it. It’s not streaky at all, very even. No splotches. And most importantly ITS NOT IN MY PORES! That’s a huge issue with my skin, it seems like every self tanner just pools in my pores. This one isn’t! Very smooth and even looking. I thought it was just as sticky as other tanners shortly after applying, but waking up in the morning I didn’t feel sticky. Overall, I love it. I might try the “extra” dark if it doesn’t layer well, but I think this is going to be a product that I keep on hand! It did arrive with the cap off, unsealed. Kinda gives me the ick but I don’t know I’m so happy with how this turned out, I’ll get over it.

I really like this self-tanner! The mousse is easy to apply and spreads evenly, making it much easier to get a smooth, natural-looking tan. I also like that the dark shade gives a more noticeable color without having to use a huge amount of product. It’s easy to work into the skin with a tanning mitt, and the mousse makes it simple to see where you’ve applied it. The bottle is also a convenient size for keeping in my bathroom or taking along when traveling. Overall, a great self-tanner for anyone who wants a deeper, bronzed look without spending a lot of time at a salon.

I have tried Il Makiage, and it's great. But I think I like Tanologist better. It stays on well, even when I was sweating. I used two applications, because one application didn't give me a DARK Self Tan, as the label suggested. When I had to get back and touch up my knees where my pants rubbed the color off, I was able to do so without streaking - blending was easy and looked good.

After this tan faded it looks super nice! Only four stars only because I was hoping because it said it was safe to put on your face I did and started breaking out but probably because I have sensitive skin.

This is one of the best at home tanning products I have ever used! Hands down! I have attached a photo of what two coats look like-a perfect deep bronze with no orange tones whatsoever. It goes on smoothly and doesn’t have a sticky feel. Would highly recommend it to anyone! 🙂

I don’t usually take the time to write reviews, but I truly dislike this product. I tried it because I wanted something more affordable than the other brands but… you get what you pay for apparently! I thought the first application was just a fluke, but I did another application last night and it was not a fluke. First off, it stays sticky even when “dried.” I ran a fan on me while I was applying it thinking that would help. It didn’t. My sheets stayed stuck to me all night. Second, the smell is there which is to be expected by any self tanner but the first application I could hardly deal with it. Third, this is only my 2nd application and half the bottle is gone already. I’m not a big girl, so there isn’t much product. Fourth, the “dark” isn’t dark. I would say it’s a medium for other brands. I even added more foam this last application and it is a nice light/medium except on my hands and feet. I’ve never had an issue with application before until this brand. I look like I’m wearing a skin toned fingerless glove on my hands. My feet haven’t been much better either application (again, only a problem with this brand. I have not changed technique, just product). And it doesn’t last long (thank gosh for my hands!). It lasts a few days at best. The only problem is that I haven’t noticed transfer on my sheets which stuck to me due to the stickiness. I’ll be going back to Bondi. I wish I could get my money back for this. I hate writing bad reviews, I truly do but I researched before changing products and now I’m annoyed with a bad self tan.

I am a fair-skinned ginger gal and I love this stuff. I've been using it for 4 years now! One layer/one application is enough for me. I don't feel the need to be reapplying all the time. Usually lasts me about a week and I workout a ton, so I am showering and sweating constantly. Be sure to moisturize after tanning to help it last longer!

Update: I added a second coat and it looks a lot better now. Still some patchy spots but I do really love the natural color.. I will keep working with it. I really wanted to like this. The only positive is the smell and hydration to my skin. My tan came out streaky and the color is not dark by any means. I self tan once a month and have never had an issue with my application process. I’m embarrassed to wear a dress for a party now because it looks like my first time trying self tanner.

Applies nicely on application but doesn’t give a dark tan and it goes SO patchy after a couple of days despite moisturising daily. Won’t be repurchasing

This product is free from animal testing, has a pleasant smell and is easy to apply with a mit. It is a natural looking tan and doesn't rub off on clothes.

Excellent product, easy to apply and no streaking. Would recommend

Mi son trovata benissimo. Non sporca. Con attenzione non lascia macchie. Unica cosa dopo vari utilizzi tende a seccare un po la pelle

Au top, il faut juste le laisser agir plus longtemps que prévu si vous voulez une teinte foncée (toute une nuit pour les jambes) Aucunes traces si l'on applique avec un gant
