I don't usually write reviews because I am lazy, however, I decided to write one because as a complete newbie to self-tanners I thought It deserved one.
First of all, I am of Latin American and French descent so my skin has olive undertones, however I ha e medium fair skin tone, I never go into the sun because I don't want skin cancer or wrinkles, I wear rash guards at the beach and never leave my house without SPF 50 on my face.
I decided to get self-tanner because during the period of quarantine I started to look a bit sick since I hadn't gone outside of my house. I also have skin discoloration a bit everywhere because my mother and father have different skin tones. (For years my mother was convinced I had skin "mushrooms" caused by swimming competitively- the humidity, turns out, its both my parent's fault I look like a leopard).
I had heard from everyone that Self Tanner's stain sheets, smell, etc and I was never interested until I saw Tan-Luxe had this colourless mousse, and after weeks of researching, I took the plunge and bought the Medium to Dark and the Light Medium mousse.
I got the medium to dark, bough a Tanning mitt and an exfoliating glove, I showered and exfoliated with the glove, put moisturizer on my knees, elbows, feet and hands and started with the tanning process. I did 2 pumps for each body part ( legs, hips/bum, stomach, chest/neck, each arm, my back) and 1 pump for my face. It dried out pretty well and quickly and I wore my PJs. I kept looking at my skin trying to see a difference, and I finally slept, my bed sheets were not stained or my PJs, and I showered to remove the self-tanner. After doing so I used micellar water on my face (I can't start my day without it) and wore my gym clothes. I rubbed my arm again my bed sheet and nothing came off.
My colour is golden colour but light, I never wanted to look brown, I wanted to look healthier and these two pumps were enough to achieve the look.
I decided to Keep the light-medium so I could try it later on and see the difference and maybe try it on my face only.
I am very happy with the result, I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do!
