Bondi Sands Skin Firming Gradual Tanning Lotion

It's my second bottle of this gradual tanning lotion. Gives you instant color when you apply it. Nice scent and doesn't end up with that stinky sunless tanning lotion. It smells like chocolate to me. Lasts all night and til you wash it off. I wear it alot. It doesn't seem like it rubs off on your clothes. I've never had issues with that. Love the color it gives my skin.

As a complete self-tanning newbie, this product was great. It took me probably about 2 weeks and a full bottle to get to the tan I was looking for, but it is really forgiving. I used a mitt and put it on every time after a shower. The smell is strong and of cocoa, but it is pleasant. It dries quickly so I didn’t have to wait to get dressed after. The tan color itself is really lovely, not orangey. I recommend this for beginners and people who have time and patience to wait for the tan!

I used whole bottle over a weeks time and got no color.

This is my favorite budget self tanner. It smells better than the rest and does a great job!

Smells like hot cocoa which I love, but I didn’t see much of a tanning difference. After a month or 2 it starts to separate like lotion from oil and I’ve stopped using it.

When people say gradual, this is GRADUAL. As a very pale person, this was exactly what I was looking for, but I can see why those with even medium skin tones would not notice any difference. Scent is very sweet, and I didn't notice any transfer to sheets/clothing/towels. I'm only removing a star for price value, because I've about used this entire bottle up with 2 weeks of applying every other day.

Works great and smells pleasant. I love the instant color and it looks natural.

This is just the subtle coverage I need. Recommend using the mitt (separate purchase) to apply evenly. LOVE that is smells like chocolate and not like tanner.
