Bondi SandsSelf Tanning Foam | Lightweight, Self-Tanner Foam Enriched with Aloe Vera and Coconut Provides an Even, Streak-Free Tan

I recently tried Bondi Sands Dark Self Tanning, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results! This self-tanner provides a beautiful, natural-looking tan that rivals a professional spray tan.The application process is seamless, thanks to the easy-to-use spray bottle and fast-drying formula. I love that it glides on smoothly without streaks, and the color develops evenly over time. The dark tan is rich and vibrant, perfect for achieving that sun-kissed glow.One of the standout features is the pleasant scent—far superior to many other self-tanners I've used. Additionally, it lasts for several days without fading unevenly, which is a huge plus.Overall, I highly recommend Bondi Sands Dark Self Tanning to anyone looking for a reliable and effective self-tanner.

Beginner friendly (though from a beginner, please heed the instructions and get a mitt for application). It’s more grey than orange, so it worked more like contour than bronzer for a very nice, natural looking tan on my pasty white skin. The scent is also very nice - coconut, not too strong. I applied it and kept it on about 6 hours under black linen trousers, so I can’t tell if there was staining or not, but the foam seemed to dry down pretty quickly at any rate.

I love this product! Very little to zero streaking. If you’re like me, you’ll need someone’s help to apply it to your back. I’ve found that it’s easier to blend if you start with there and continue with sides and arms first. Otherwise you have a hard edge to contend with. It’s possible to have a flawless transition big you slowly and lightly feather the product with the application mit (purchased separately). It smells better than most, but it will rub off on your clothes if it’s not completely dry prior to dressing. Even then, I’ve had bedding and clothes stain. Overall I still think it’s the best self tanner I’ve ever used.

Okay so to start I ordered this product after watching video reviews on YouTube and reading reviews on here and they all seemed very positive. Before using this product I had only used the Jergen’s gradual tan lotion in dark and received actual spray tans from machines or had someone tan me with a spray machine. But if y’all know getting spray tans is pricey and that is why I decided to buy this product.When I received the item it was wrapped in plastic and I’m assuming they do that because of the leaking problem other buyers seem to have had. Mine was also leaking a little which was a little messy to open and it stained the lettering on the bottle pink. I also purchased the Bondi Sands mitt which I loved.Before applying the product I showered, exfoliated, and had shaved. Once my body was dry I followed the instructions on the bottle which say to use long strokes with the mitt and then to wait 30 mins before applying a second coat for a darker longer lasting tan.I used two pumps on the mitt and began applying to my legs first.**the foam is green looking**I believe this is the guide color so you can see where you have applied the product. I do not believe this means the product is defected. The reason I say this is because when you shower after applying it the water has a greenish tint to it.I also posted a picture and this shows one leg after about 10 minutes of application and one leg with no application. You can see the leg I applied product to looks an olive tone.So after I applied one layer to my body I waited the 30 minutes and then did the next layer. This foam does leave your skin feeling pretty sticky so I was pretty much naked for an hour total to allow this product to dry before getting dressed. (I had tried to put clothes on about 10 minutes after applying the second coat and it stained the inside of my jean shorts).Alright so after I completed the application which was around 5 pm I went on with my day and initially I was really pleased with the color I had.Here is where I messed up. I didn’t shower at the 6 hour mark which would have been at around 11 pm. I had a long day and when I went to put my daughter to bed I accidentally fell asleep with her. So I didn’t end up waking up until 9 am the next morning, meaning I had sat in this for about 17 hours. I think this is why I wasn’t satisfied with the end result, which was a very dark orange looking color. Now the positive is that the color did not look streaky at all! The mitt and the foam product worked really well together. The only other thing I would suggest for application is to maybe apply a regular lotion to knees, elbows, tops of feet, and hands before applying the foam as well as applying the foam VERY sparingly to these areas. I think that if I would have showered at the 6 hour mark I would be more satisfied with the final color. You can see the extreme color difference in my photo of my legs before and after the completed application.So I hope this was helpful and I will be posting an updated photo once I have the chance to reapply knowing what I know now!Also the scent is nice and it does fade but if it never gets to strong or gross smelling. If you have used the jergens that one has a pretty strong smell that lingers and this doesn’t do that.

I’ve tried many many self tanners and by far.. this is the best one! I apply it straight out of shower with my skin still damp. It applies so easily.. however I do use a mitt. After I finish my routine, I apply a great skin moisturizer.. it doesn’t rub off on my hands.. it’s streak free and especially!, the color that develops does NOT have an orange tint. Wonderful product for a great price!! It doesn’t have the ‘ self tanner’ scent either. Will be buying again
