Fake Bake Beyond Bronze Self Tanning Lotion

I heard great things about this tan, so I decided to try it for myself. I went through my pre tanning routine and all that, applied the tan which I felt was not exactly the easiest to apply as it more or less dried immediately once in touched the skin, which made it impossible to blend in. I left it to dry for awhile, waited about 12 hrs before washing of residue. When I woke there was ZERO colour development, It just highlighted dry areas. I showered and whatever "tan" was supposed to be on my skin went down the drain, I applied my moisturiser hoping to make some difference but I just had this dirty tinge on my skin, with some areas having gathered parts of the product.... Would have gotten a better colour if I rolled around in the mud! Waste of money waste of time waste of a product. I think listing this as a tanning product is laughable!

This dries too fast u cant even blend it in as soon as it touches your skin its dry. Leaves many, many streaks, and is way too dark. Nice color, not orange at all, but way too dark with only one application. The formula itself is nearly black and goes on that way it is impossible to blend evenly especially on feet arms and hands. I will try mixing with lotion and applying that way and see how that goes but will definitely have to find gloves or tanning mit my hands are sooo stained as I am used to clear self tanner!!

I used to be a massive fan of this product, telling all of my friends to try it.Recently i bought a tube of it and have found it awfull. It doesnt blend wellon your skin and totally washes off the next day.I always apply at night time and wash off thenext day.Very very didsapointed.I will not be buying again.

I love this tanning lotion. I am a big fake bake fan but often cant be bothered with the hassle of applying the mousse, so I decided to try this gradual tanner which is applied like a moisturiser and the colour can be built up.

I used this one night before going to bed, was really easy to apply and the next morning I had an even, golden colour, after just one application. Was really pleased with the result and now use this a couple of times a week to keep my skin looking golden. This gives a really even colour with no hint of orange or any streaks at all

My only gripe with this product is you have to use quite a lot, and a bottle does not last long, especially if you apply a couple of times a week. Its not exactly cheap either, but its a great product so worth the price in my opinion

i bought this fake tan from a hight street store as i didnt like the colour i was getting from other fake tan products ive used,however i should of kept my £20 and spent it on something else,first i will start with the mess this product makes, my bathroom is a proper mess there is tan EVERY WHERE it's on my skirting boards in the grooves on the radiator its changed the colour of my towels its all over the place and it does not wash off the bath easy, you have to really scrub and the last thing you want to do is start scrubbing when you have just tanned up,then theres the durabilty i spent all that time tanning up to get in the shower the next morning to see my tan washing away down the plug the water running off me was brown and i dint go mad with it in the first place i was back to being pasty again...not good!..the colour i can not fault it is lovely and if you wanted a tan that does not last long for a special occasion then this is the one for you..keep your spraying hand nice and steady tho or you wil also end up with brown flecks of pure tan on you.

Fake Bake Beyond Bronze Self Tanning Lotion:

I'd like to begin by stating just how important I think the patch test is! I have heard of quite a few people getting a really bad rash when using this product. Usually people with very light sensitive skin. I did the patch test on the inside of the top of my thigh and left it 24hours.

This lotion comes in a simple yet trendy bottle, something you wouldn't mind keeping on display in your bathroom. I like the fact it has a pump included. Gives you more choice when applying the tan. It does have a bit of a nasty smell but not a very strong one. You can only really smlell it during application and after if you literally sniff yourself! Its not a bad enough smell to stop anyone using the product in my opinion.

I was pretty shocked at just how dark the lotion was, but when putting onto the skin I could see why it was so dark. It completely eliminates the chance of you getting streaks as you can see EXACTLY where the tan is going and how even it is. If it does go streaky then I would say you only have yourself to blame!

I was extremely impressed with how easy it was too put on my feet and around ankles, there is nothing worse than a beautiful tan with white feet! It was also quite easy to blend into the hands. I had no problems with my elbows/knees going darker, however I am a regualar lotion tanner and have the exfoliating nack down to a fine art now! You should exfoliate your whole body, but don't scrub too hard as it will make your skin sore and may sting when you use the fake tan.

I would definitely suggest keeping an old flannel or towel near by during application of the lotion so that if you have put too much of the lotion on a certain area you can wipe it off quickly.. as mentioned in the products instructions, this lotion starts to work as soon as it meets the skin, hence why gloves are provided.

After applying, you need to wait around 10 mins to let the product fully dry. I wore some satin PJ's to bed and in the morning there was not a mark on the bed sheets. I think satin PJ's work well as they do not stick to the fake tan like cotton perhaps would.

My tan the next day looked very natural, and exceeded my expectations. I had not bothered to do my face in case it went terribly wrong but next time I definitely will. 1 application leaves quite a light tan. I will be re-applying tonight to make it a bit darker and I think that will be enough.

I would definitely recommend this product. It is pricey, but you do get what you pay for. It is a very natural tan colour and definitely the best streak free tan I have used.
