Banana BoatSummer Color Self-Tanning Lotion, Light/Medium Color, for all Skin Tones, 6 oz Tube

I enjoyed the feel of this tanner, it is not sticky and leaves more of a natural color than many similar products I’ve used.

This is great tanning lotion. The color looks real and doesn't streak. Just use gloves during the application process and make sure to rub in very well. Ankles, elbows, and knees tend to be drier so be careful so the color doesn't apply strangely to those areas. Definitely a better option than risking skin cancer from the sun and tanning beds. And you get to do it in the comfort of your own home. The only thing I do not like, is the smell. Leaves a sweaty smell on the skin, so just make sure you put better scented lotion over the top after it has had time to absorb and dry

I have tried several self tanning lotions over the years but have very light complexion so I could never find a lotion that resulted in a real looking skin tone. I mix the lotion with some basic Vaseline skin lotion (about 50/50) an hour or so before I go to bed about 2-3 times a week. It gives me a very good natural looking skin color without staining my clothes. I always wash my palms after application to prevent having a tell tale sign of using self tanning lotions and nobody has any idea I use it yet I have received compliments.

I had several friends who recommended this self-tanning lotion. I like that natural looking color that it provides and it doesn't streak. However, as with most self-tanners it has a smell that seems to stick with you for several hours. It's not a terrible smell, but I continue to be on the look-out for something that has a great color that is odorless.

I have tried quite a few tanning lotions, and this is the best yet! The color is incredibly real looking. Not orange in color at all. And for someone with very pale skin, it means so much to find a product that works so well. Within a few hours of applying, the color is noticeable and great looking. I recommend applying to well moisturized skin, because it can pigment dry skin in a strange manner. The color has good stay power and will last, but can be softened with exfoliation. I mixed the lotion with my favorite moisturizer for application on my neck and arms to prevent too much color too fast, and it worked great. With some lotions this may have caused streaking, but with this lotion there was no issue, just great color.

This banana boat item had a few promises that did not come true: This product does streak so you have to be super careful applying it. It came off on the towel when I showered the next day and two days and a day after that. The smell is awful and lingers. Its self tanning so you do not expect it to be a beautiful smell. I won't order it again. I tried it.No good.

Still gives a person that odor after a day of using it.. at first its great smelling. The tanning part (I'm very fair skinned)is OK. Not very much of a difference after a few days of use. Kinda hoped it would be darker. There is no streakingand it does go on very easily. I put mine on after a shower and it does seems pleasant enough at first.. just turned offlater by the odor and the very light tan it gave me

It's the only tan lotion I will use. You can put it on and then go to bed! It's not greasy and dries quickly!
