Beauty by Earth Self Tanner - USA Made with Natural & Organic Ingredients, Moisturizing Self Tanning Lotion with Aloe Vera & Coconut for a Natural Glow, Streak-Free Fake Tan, Medium to Dark

Okay…. Please read before buying or applying it. I have naturally fair skin and don’t want to sit in the sun to tan as I’ve been more conscious about sun damage. I bought this stuff as well as the Cerave body moisturizer because my skin has been super dry and I also planned to mix the products. It took some trial and error but I figured out a solution. After I shower/shave/ and exfoliate well (I just use the Tree Hut brand) I will apply about a dime sized amount of this lotion with some of my cerave lotion and rub it between my hands to mix and blend it and then I put it on my arms/legs/body and blend it well with my hands. I then take my eco tools tanning mitt on top and blend it even more using that until my skin feels “dry” or like I’m not blending it in anymore. I go gentle on my knees and elbows since those areas tend to be drier. I also used the Cerave lotion BEFORE to moisture all of my skin- then I go in with the tanning lotion and Cerave lotion mix and apply it. I then let it sit for the recommended 15 minutes BEFORE putting anny clothing on and I usually just go to sleep with it on. WASH YOUR HANDS after you use the mitt. This will prevent them from staining. I use a small buffing brush I got from target or I’ll use the eco tools tanning brush also from target to blend my hands and feet well so they’re at-least not pale white. For my face I mix the tanologist face drops with my night moisturizer- only a few drops and then use my hands to blend it well- don’t forget your neck- and to blend it up into your hairline so there’s no line. Apply the tanning lotion to your whole body including shoulders and neck/ the back of your neck- everywhere and BLENDDD with your hands and use the mitt after to smooth the product even more then I use the tanning brush by eco tools to blend my face/hands/ and feet after I used my hands to get most of it blended and put on. You can build this tan up gradually and it doesn’t make me look orange and with the routine above it has worked well for me. I did get streaks the first time I used it but I did not blend it with the Cerave lotion using my hands. Make sure the 2 products are well combined by rubbing it through your hands before applying it. Best self tanner I’ve ever used. I got the shade light/medium because I’m new to tanning and also wanted it to look more natural on me. Pictures are the day after I used this product.

I’ve been trying to find cleaner options to the beauty products I use. I’ve been looking at this tanning lotion for a while. The price was my biggest hurdle. When it came out on sale, I decided to order it. Firstly, I would say my experience in application with a tanning mit was similar to any other lotion tanner. It takes more time to make sure you get an even application. That being said, I got an even coat with my first application to my legs (which is normally the only area I use it on). Ankles and knees are always tricky so I try to only apply to these areas with a lighter amount left on the mit after applying to my legs or thighs and I did pretty well with that method. So far so good! The light to medium shade gave my a very natural sun-kissed look. I am not looking for a dark tanning bed/spray look. I just want a little color on my legs that just don’t seem to get any color out in the sun (with sunscreen of course) any more. There is a faint pleasant fragrance out of the tube. As the day goes on, I could smell a much fainter smell similar to the much stronger smell I got from regular cream self tanners. I can live with that. Using it only on my legs, one tube should last me several months. Still wish it wasn’t so expensive.

This is a real review. I was very skeptical of this working for me, I get hives from every self tanner I have ever tried (and I've tried a lot). They say only 2 out of 100,000 are allergic to DHA and I must be one of them. Anyway, this product worked for me without any allergic reaction and it gives a nice golden color! I got the fair to medium. The first day I used it someone complimented my tan! If you get hives from self tanner, I highly recommend this product. I thought I was going to be pale forever, not anymore! I plan on trying more products from this brand soon. Oh, and it smells good, like coconut, a lot better than every other brand I tried!

I read the reviews before purchasing. The tanner works very well without any smell! True, a little goes a long way. I mix my with another lotion for easy application. Works fast! The only bad thing I can say about it, and others have mentioned, if you have freckles, dark spots or sun spots this will definitely enhance them, and I have a lot! Especially my legs where I needed the color the most. It made them worse so I stopped using it. Overall, it is a very good product!

I got the fair to medium shade to try out before I went full dark for Summer, and I am impressed. I love how it’s lotion, and it gives the most subtle natural looking tan. I don’t feel bad using it during my pregnancy due to the natural ingredients. I love you don’t have to rinse/wash off. The only small complaint I have is it is advertised as no scent, but after several hours when it really starts working I do smell a small fragrance coming off my skin and it transfers to my pillows at night. The smell is nothing compared to other leading brands I have tried though. Despite this, I still high recommend the product.

I had first left a one star review when I used this product and I didn’t see a change right away. I reapplied the next day and let me tell you it looks more real than any tanner I’ve ever used. I have never gone back and change a review of my life but if you want to get a great tan and you don’t want streaks or to be orange, just use the product and reapply and eight hours. Today’s Wednesday I reapplied last Saturday and I’m still tan .

I normally buy a L’Oréal product under $15, but I bought this hoping that it would last longer than my old standby which only works for 3 days. I gave it 4 stars because it works like my standby but since I’m barely at day 5 I’m wanting to see how much longer it can stay on. Its application is the same, however this one doesn’t smell as bad. My old standby does however have a luminescence quality that I like better. The real test for me, is how long it stays on.
