Bondi Sands Everyday Gradual Tanning Milk 375ml | Enriched with Vitamin E | Suitable for Sensitive Skin | Vegan + Cruelty Free | 375ml/13.2 FL Oz

I don't use tanning products because of hassle or streaks or the "orange" tint, however, this is such a great product.Dries instantly, no streaks, blends well with my pigment (I'm yellow tint - orange tans look awful on me), moisturises my skin and builds up gradually so I control the shade.The only downside (subjective) is I can't stand the smell. It's like a cocoa type scent. If you had a cocoa-malt drink, it'd probably smell like this. Ovaltine tanning lotion haha. It's not extremely smelly, I'm just a sensitive soul and don't like food smells in lotions.I would happily use this every summer.

Really like this gradual tan, smells lovely, easy to apply and Non-greasy also soaks into skin quickly.

Ive come to amend my 1st review! At first i complained about the strong smell. However, shaking the bottle before use has ensured the smell is minimal. Colour is subtle. I am a very pale red-head and it looks natural. Very happy and would buy again.

Easy to apply with even coverage. The colour also suits my skin tone( Auburn hair). Highly recommended *****

Tbh the dove gradual tan gives you the best tan on first application you have to do 3-4 days in a row with this to get the same tan I'm pale too I suppose if you're really pale red hair freckles pale then it would be a really good self tanner to give you a little bit of colour without being orange but id rather pay half the price for more product that I only have to apply once or twice a week instead of every day it smells nice when you apply it but does have the fake tan smell after an hour so I would like to use my usual nice smelling body lotion after the tanning one in-between but you can't with this have to apply every day

Arrived really quickly and packed well, no damage at all.I’m very very pale and have been looking for a tan that suits me for a long time. Most tans for light skin come up quite orange or too dark/green. I bought this after hearing good things about bondi sands and good reviews on this product in particular.Before applying I exfoliated using exfoliating gloves and shower mousse, dried my skin thoroughly and applied with my hands. It gives off a slight cocoa butter scent but nothing too strong. I’m very surprised that there are a couple reviews saying this feels sticky or doesn’t sink in. This does in fact sink in really well and feels exactly like a normal moisturiser. In fact, this sinks in more than my normal body moisturisers and leaves my skin feeling soft and not sticky at all. The only thing I would assume is that they are applying too much.After around 10 minutes it had completely sank in and my skin felt normal again, I don’t have particularly dry skin either. After about an hour or two, I did get that that usual fake tan smell, but nothing like other tanning creams. It wasn’t too bad when I woke up and faded completely by the end of the day.The colour itself had developed just after one use and I found this really impressive for a gradual tan. I am pale so this obviously makes a difference but I’ve found that other gradual tanners take a couple days to show some colour. With this, one application left me with a really nice subtle bronzed look. I had no streaks at all and it didn’t stick to my dry areas (feet, elbows, knees) which to me is a massive deal. After a second application I had the nicest tan! The colour isn’t orange at all and looks very natural. Mine lasted a few days without fading but when I exfoliated it faded nicely, not patchy.Overall this is easily the best gradual tan on the market in my opinion. The price seems a bit high but is 100% worth it and miles better than the cheap ones, especially because the colour shows after one use and lasts a while.

Love this product. Lightweight but gives good moisture to skin. Not greasy. Easy to apply and smells nice too - almost like Cocoa butter / chocolate smell. Leaves a good, slight glow after first use, second and third use really builds and colour noticeable. I’ve not had issues with streaking but do use gloves now as found it stained my palms badly and would not wash off. Once I have applied to body I take gloves off and either use a brush to draw lotion over tops of hands or do one top of hand and then the second. I then use wet / damp flannel or cloth to wipe over the palms of my hands to ensure no staining.

I usually use the gradual tan foam from Bondi Sands but thought I’d give this a go for something more moisturising.Overall, I would say it’s a great product. I do find if you apply too much of a thick layer, the next time you apply be careful as too much buildup becomes patchy and peels.I am fair skinned and ginger haired and the colour comes up lovely on me. Again, if I add too much in one week I can risk an Orange tint but my skin is extremely pale so I usually expect a dance with getting my colour right with any product.It stays on a long time, you really need to scrub to get it off or apply a self tan eraser and it will come off in no time.I sometimes add moisturiser on top of once it has dried or shimmer powder depending on then type of evening and the finish I need.
