I usually have spray tans as my friend is a mobile tanner, but she was on holiday & I needed tanning for a wedding so I thought I would give Xen-Tan Dark Tanning Lotion a go!

Fantastic product!! I purchased the Dark Tanning Lotion & Body Scrub in a package for about £30 incl P&P.

The body scrub is to be used before tan application and then during each shower after (excluding 1st shower). It has a lovely refreshing minty smell and leaves skin very soft.

The tan lotion is very dark brown when it comes out of the bottle but it gives such a lovely and natural brown tan, no signs on orange!! It smells like cherry bakewells and once dried does have a bit of a "fake" smell but nothing too heavy. Application is very easy - I use latex gloves, but with or without gloves the tan is very easy to apply evenly.

I use cotton wool pads to apply to my feet and hands lightly. I also apply to my face which looks great.

From my experience, for the best results apply 2 days before you need the tan - I needed it for a wedding on a Saturday, I applied Thursday evening and slept in it, then had a light shower Friday morning. Friday evening I touched up any spots I had missed and by Saturday it was PERFECT!

Havent yet to notice any staining on clothing or bedding. Lasts about a week to ten days and I always receive compliments.

Worth every penny!!!
