Xen-Tan Deep Bronze

There's a lot of things I like about this self tanner. The color it produces is pretty nice (I used the "dark" version). It smells kind of like vanilla pudding, which I also like. However, the main things I wasn't a fan of were the dark guide and messy application. When I was putting it on, it felt like it was getting all over the place. And it was a little "thick" in consistency for my taste. So I guess overall I'd put this one above average, but not outstanding due to the messiness of it.

Used this product quite happily last year but sadly they must have changed the formula because it smells quite vile. I won't be using it again and have consigned it to the bin. The smell lasted ages on all my clothes. I emailed Xen Tan and told them with the comment that if its not broke, don't fix it.

I have been using xen tan for 3 years and my clients and i loved it, unfortunately they have recently changed their product and i have lost a lot of clients because of this as their improved tan smelt funny and didin't develop properly. I have contacted xen tan to raise this issue only to be told that can not offer me a good will gesture as they are so popular they dont need my business!!

Xen tan have spoilt a perfectly good product, not only does the tan stinks and wash off like water off a ducks back the customer service clearly acts in the same way!!!

Can anyone recommend a good spray tan, I am truly disappointed???

i bought my xen-tan dark lotion of ebay so im curious whether it is a fake or genuine product! when it came, it wasnt sealed. it just looked like a plain white bottle, with a fake sticker round it and filled with any old stuff! has anybody else found this if they have bought of ebay? i wont be doing it again!! i also paid £23 altogether which is only a bit cheaper from the ones in the real shops.!

I have used average priced spray tans and found that they lasted much longer than X Tan. Was very disappointed with this product. Wore off in in few days in bitty patches. Didn't have the desired colour that product claims.

AWFUL!! Another FAIL from Xen Tan.

Doesn't smell too much like fake tan but is quite stong vanilla/chocolate smelling. Difficult to tell where you've put it once rubbed in. Like all self tanning creams it steaks a bit around fingers, toes and ankles. Unfortunatley it also turns green in the tube if not used for a while, you look like the hulk when applying it. I still think it's a bit orangy despite claims that it is a dark tan colour.

I love this product its the best one i have ever used until yesterday i was out in the sun and my face was sweating especially around my mouth and when i looked in the mirror it was all blotchy now i am afraid to put it on my face,its not the one for the face its the spray one as the one for the face did not work on me,can anyone tell me if they have had the same experience thank you

I think I have used every fake tan under the sun. I have found St Tropez smelt too much of fake tan and fake bake wore off unevenly on my skin. Everybody's skin is different so it's just good to try different ones. I have quite dry skin on my legs and arms so need a tan that's moisturising. My natural colour is quite pale but I tan well when on holiday.

I bought Xen Tan Dark Lotion to begin with but it was a bit of a hassle to put on (like any fake tan), there was no way I could've put it on in a hurry etc. It also wore off unevenly on my skin.

So I decided to try Xen Tan's Luxe Bronze instead. Wow. I will NEVER EVER use a different fake tan now. This is FANTASTIC. It's sooo moisturising, no need to faff about applying moisturiser too. I have a shower, dry off, and using gloves apply Luxe Bronze just like a moisturiser. It's fool proof. Straight away I have a tint of a tan then after a couple of hours its a lovely golden colour. I usually apply one coat on one night, then another coat the next night.

The tan usually lasts 7-10 days on me (even with my dry skin) and fades evenly, no patches. I use St Tropez moisturiser as a daily moisturiser and this keeps my skin mosturised and it doesn't react to the Xen Tan.

I would like to see it a bit cheaper, but it doesn't put me off buying it. Now it's also available in House of Fraiser and Harvey Nichols so I dont have to wait for it to arrive when buying it online :)

I always make sure I have a supply of this tan. Love it!!!

Rubbish . very disappointed. I spent around £20 on this tan so was expecting something very good because i dont even pay this much for a spray tan. The smell is okay and it goes on nice and doesnt leave you sticky like i have found with others but ive used it twice now and both times i cant see a change in skin colour what so ever and i am very pale skinned and usually other tanning products work on me. Dont waste your money if your to get one i recommend Subline by loreal it works great and is only around £10
