NorvellVenetian Sunless Self Tanner Mousse with Bronzer, 8 Fl Oz - Instant Self Tanning - Natural Looking - Anti-Orange - Fake Tan for Bronzing Glow

5 stars for the color, quality, value and scent. This is the exact same stuff the technician sprays you with at the spa/salon. In fact its the brand they used that I loved when I worked at a spa and lived in FL. The color is ridiculously perfect. NO ORANGE - just a deep reddish brown. You will definitely not feel like your sunless tan is ''on the yellow or orange side'' compared to the real tans at the beach or pool. I have a very light skin tone, I'd say its a neutral skin tone because I have both pinks and yellow/green tone throughout my skin and very very fair with zero sun or tanning, I dont burn too bad but I don't tan dark brown either. Some say it has a ''greyish'' hue to it and they don't like it because ''it looks dirty''. Well, everyone, that is exactly what combats the orange/yellow and its the exact tone of the people who naturally tan dark. All you need to do is thoroughly work it in to your skin and you will not ''look dirty'' at all and you won't look like you are wearing fake tan because the color is so on point.With that said, I would say you really have to know what you are doing to use this product by yourself or it will be a disaster lol. You cannot be afraid of this product you have to go all in and be very thorough in how well you blend it all over your skin. Have a very slightly damp microfiber cloth nearby so you can touch up imperfections, you can even very lightly go over the whole area with it to make sure the color guide is blended flawlessly (this is if you don't have a tanning mit around, I did not today so I used gloves and a damp microfiber cloth) If you do have a tanning mit, you should have no problems whatsoever blending this on your skin, for the most part, if you have some experience. The dark color guide will cling to any fine hairs on your body which if you leave it there will look terrible, but they can easily be lightly buffed away with the damp cloth after application. It sounds like a lot but its so worth the results of this product, because of the price and how long it lasts. Big bottle!This product smells so good - cherryish and a very subtle developing smell, but nothing like most products - even a lot of the higher end ones stink. And obviously be sure to properly prep (exfoliate and moisturize the night before) your skin, not only for the final result but it will help the color guide to look very pretty on your skin while you wait for it to develop during the day, and not a dirty streaky mess. Go ahead and use on face but use very sparingly in that area and reeeaallly blend well or you will look weird lolIt is slightly sticky for about an hr. In my opinion that is a very small price to pay for what you get here. Just like after you leave an airbrush session, wear loose fitting clothes that you don't mind getting some color guide on. Should wash out of clothes but you don't want to wear your best light/white clothes after application. Its always a sad thing when the time comes to shower and you have to wash off the deep dark color guide, but the tan it leaves is still that same very pretty red/brown tone...just slightly lighter. Apply a high quality deep moisturizer to your skin so that the fade is even and not flaky looking - this is the trouble that you run into if you are very fair and put a deep dark tanner on, no matter the quality of the tanner. It can be done but you can't be lazy about the care of it. Also mix in a little light tanning lotion of whatever brand, I use Caribbean Solutions (which is also great natural color on its own, just not as dark as Norvell, all organic, and the ingredients are like bathing your skin in vitamins) mixed with a good body butter or lotion daily to prolong the tan and so it fades slowly and evenly with no flaky blotches.

After a shower, dry off, use the tanning mitt to apply moose evenly all over the body. Use lightly on elbows and knees. The results are amazing. no need to go to a salon any longer. Results are a beautiful, even color. reapply to keep from fading after a few days. I love this product. No more sun for me!

10/10 highly recommend! The quality is amazing! After using muiltple other brands this one has stood out. No bad smell, not streaky. Has the perfect bronze brown tan!

I’ve used St. Tropez for years, but Novell has officially become my new go-to! I brought this tanning mousse on vacation and was blown away by how well it held up. I swam every single day, and it still lasted about a week with a beautiful, even fade. The color was natural-looking, not orange or streaky, and the application was super smooth. It also didn’t have that typical self-tanner smell, which was a huge plus. If you’re looking for a long-lasting, easy-to-use self tanner, this is it. Highly recommend!

Smells good. Like the violet undertone for a deeper, rich tan vs. the green undertone. Not an immediate bronzing mousse. Let develop overnight for color. Lasts a few days. Better self tanners out there in the same price range with immediate bronzers.

I am not a big reviewer of products, but I wanted to provide some feedback on this item. For one, I really do love this product. I have a fair to medium skin tone, and I love the color this product gives. I have tried numerous other brands that are suppose to be the next best thing, but find they do not give me the tan this one does or last as long as this one does. It gives me a nice warm glow that is not orange at all. Truly great product! I did have an issue with an expired date on a bottle I purchased recently. I sent the buyer, Sunless Tanning, an inquiry about the issue. They got back to me in an expeditious manner and went above and beyond to handle the issue, sending me a replacement bottle and communicating with me through the whole process. I highly recommend buying this product from them, as they are a professional company with integrity. This day and age, you never know what kind of service you will receive when an issue arises, but I am happy to report I had a great experience and highly recommend the product and this company!

I had high hopes for this product, as I’ve read all over that a lot of professional spray tan businesses use this brand. Maybe they use a different solution or the spray version works better. My legs were still pale and my arms were just slightly darker when I woke up the next morning after sleeping the whole night with this mousse on my skin. And I’ve been using self tanners for about 15 years now and take all the proper steps for ultimate results. I’ve used other self tanners that were a lot cheaper and worked better. Don’t waste your money on this.
