Bondi Sands Light/Medium Self-Tanning Foam - Lightweight, Buildable Formula Gives a Sun-Kissed Glow for a Flawless Finish; 200 mL/7.04 Oz

As a complete tanning novice, I’ve always avoided self-tanners because they seemed like too much faff — but this one was surprisingly easy to use. The lotion applied smoothly and, even though I worried about leaving streaks during application, the finished result was streak-free and very natural looking. It really feels quite foolproof, even for beginners. The instructions could be clearer on how long to leave it on (other than the six hours for a deep tan), but I left mine for around four hours after adding a second layer as suggested. After rinsing, I was left with a lovely natural glow and no transfer onto my sheets overnight. I imagine it would work well as a buildable tan too. The scent is strong coconut — which I didn’t mind at all, and definitely preferable to the usual “biscuity” fake tan smell. That said, I did notice a faint hint of the latter underneath, but nothing unpleasant. Overall, this is a brilliant, user-friendly tanning lotion that gives a natural result with minimal effort. Perfect if you’re new to self-tan and want something easy and reliable.

First time using this tan and can confidently say it will now be my go to. I’ve tried so many tans in the past that were either too dark and or left me looking orange. Because I’m ginger it can be really difficult finding a tan that looks natural, plus I am fair olive which makes the process that bit more difficult. This tan is hands down the most natural looking I’ve tried and I have tried quite a few over the years. The mousse went on really easily, smelled really nice going on but I will say the typical fake tan smell does appear once the tan has developed. I applied one layer and left it on for 3 hours before rinsing off which resulted in a beautiful natural looking glow. Definitely try if you’re nervous about tanning or are worried about turning orange.

Best self tanner out there.! I’ve always been the human equivalent of a highlighter. I literally glow in the dark. SPF 100 is my best friend. But after discovering Bondi Sands Self Tanner, I’m not just glowing, I’m glowing in the best, bronzed way possible. The mousse is lightweight, doesn’t streak, and smells like coconut dreams (not like that weird fake-tan smell you’re used to). I applied it in the evening, went to bed and woke up feeling like I just returned from a tropical vacation. My skin looked like I’d been lying on the beach in Bali for a week, minus the sunburn.

Good tan, nice even colour and easy application. Does transfer to sheets when tanning at night even when dry unlike the Bondi aero light self tan.

Not usually one for leaving reviews but I felt I just had to with this product. As a very pale skinned person who doesn't tan but loves to be tanned, I have had a very love hate relationship with false tans. I've tried SO many I lost count but always ended up with a streaky or patchy finish, looking darker on certain areas and not taking to others at all, washing off in patches, that horrid fake tan smell, hard to apply, etc, etc...I gave up for a while and stuck to my old faithful instant tan but its such a ball a c h e having to reapply every day, expecially in summer. But wow...this false tan has literally changed my life! I exfoliated beforehand in the bath but pretty half heartedly, applied a little bit of moisturiser to my elbows, kness and ankles (dry areas) and used the Bondi Sands mitt to apply (amazing mitt as it is waterproof lined so no tan on your palms). The foam has a slight instant tint so you can see where it's going and it dries in instantly so you don't have to keep rubbing at it for ages and no streaks! It smells beautiful as you're applying, coconutty, and it's just so quick and easy. Straight away I felt I had a nice glow and after a few hours a darker colour had developed (as shown in the photo). The notorious false tan smell did develop a bit with the tan but not horribly so. The next morning I showered and the tan stayed fully in place. I am absolutely in love with this Bondi Sands product! Would fully recommend.

Love this product. Goes on easy and gives you a lovely natural tan. It doesn't streak like most self tanning products do, dries in seconds, will definitely buy this again.

I’ve not used a self-tan for years because of how bad they used to be on the whole. This tan is fantastic. It’s a lovely light foam that goes on really easily. Use a mitt, that’s why they exist! If you put this on with your hands then off course you’re going to stain your hands. And of course there’s colour transfer while the tan is developing and before you wash it off - that’s a given, just don’t get dressed and sit on something dark until you do. Common sense. Once you’ve washed it off and moisturised it will then continue to develop into a lovely deep tan that lasted nearly a week (and that’s with showering every day). Great stuff! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Have used this Tan in Medium for years. I have just nosed at the reviews and a few people have mentioned things like rashes and it leaving a mess on your bed sheet so I thought I would write this to help some of the people that are a little unsure of fake tan or just beginners of tan in general. follow these steps below and you will have such a pretty/natural look. Go in the shower the day before you are due to tan and only then shave, this gives your skin time to calm down before adding more chemicals on your body. The following day have another shower but this time exfoliate everywhere with a sugar body scrub (make sure you get your knees, knuckles, above your heels/bottom of your legs and elbows) use a form shower gel that is soft on the skin, get out and pat your body till completely dry. Next you want to cover your body from head to toe in moisturiser (make sure you get those same important areas...knees, knuckles, above the heel of your foot/at the bottom of your leg and elbows) wait for moisturiser to naturally dry into your skin and then use a small amount of vaseline on those again areas as stated twice above (get in between your toes and fingers so no orange colour) ones this is all done then move on to the tan...no matter what tan you use it will never look right if you dont use a good bit (I recommend the purple glove with thumb shape one from Primark, cheap and brilliant) apply one layer of tan all over your body and get into every area (I normally use 2 pumps into the pit for each part of my body) wait after done for 30 mins (no clothing) then re apply exactly the same and same amount all over your body again (wait 30 mins to naturally dry and then sleep with loose clothing on which you dont mind getting tan on (this tan washes off straight away in the wash off clothes and bedding so dont worry. Then when you wake up go in the shower one last time and wash it off using only your hands as you only want a slight layer of the tan to lighten not be removed. after out of shower PAT try with a towel and thats it.
