b.tan Dark Self Tanner Kit | Get Tanned Bundle - Self Tanner Mousse w/Tanning Mitt Applicator, 1 Hour Sunless Tanner, Fast Glow, No Fake Tan Smell, Vegan, Cruelty Free, 6.7 Fl Oz

I'm not orange. It doesn't have a super strong smell but it is faint. Legs have 2 coats on them. The rest of my body has one layer on. I used the B.tan forever and I used the b.tan mitten and the "we've got your back". For my face I used a foundation brush and went sparingly, blending all over my face and down my neck, chest and any other spot that needed a little touch up. Pro tip, don't forget to do your ears ( I used the foundation brush to do that too.) I did this after my kids and husband went to bed. I applied to my legs 1st, let it set an a couple hours, rinsed in cool water. Then I used it all over my body and face. And went to sleep in it. When I woke up, I rinsed off in the shower (about 45-90 seconds to rinse off the greenish application color) I did not exfoliate or anything. When my husband saw me he said, wow.. that looks really good, actually!! He had his doubts. 😂 He's seen me in a dark spray tan for our wedding and then again for our honeymoon in Mexico but it's been years and years since I spent money on a spray tan We have 2 kids and 1 income (mom guilt is so real!!) So, me spending money on myself for a spray tan wouldn't happen but for $10 I can look this tan. Okay!! I'll probably put another application on the rest of my body when I don't have to put clothes on right away and I think I'll be happier. I do wish it was a little thicker. I lost some on the floor because it fell off the "we've got your back" applicator. I also dripped some on a really light blue shirt but rinsed in cold water immediately and put some Mrs Myers soap on it and let it set wet over night. Put it in the washer this morning and it came out, to my surprise!! Pros: -Affordable -Easy to use -No orange umpa loompa color -Very light sent -Little to no color transfer to other fabric -Dries pretty quick -Not sticky afterwards -No UV damage Cons: -You do need to have time to do it -It did make my skin feel more dry -A little itchy until rinsed but nothing that wasn't tolerable. I'm very curious to see how long this will last. I feel like there isn't a ton left in the bottle so if I can't get at least 2 decent tans out of it, it will loose the affordability aspect for me. None of my pictures have filters or any editing 1st picture is how pale I am naturally, the rest are with b.tan forever. This is just an honest review from a stay at home mom of 2!! Also, I always apply some sort of cornstarch based powder to myself after any tanning applications. It definitely helps in the areas like under the bum, behind your knees, inner elbows (the ditch), under cleavage, around belly button, basically anywhere you might sweat or have clothes rub. Don't forget to shake the bottle very well before each use 😉 I received nothing to give this review. 6/8/23 Will update if it fades weird!! ***UPDATE*** 6/21/2023 Just get it, if you're on the fence just buy it. I'm out fades beautifully. Just like a natural tan would fade. ZERO WEIRD SPOTS. I also noticed that when I'm in the floor with my toddler, my knees are still tanned after being on the carpet. I've spent 3Xs the $$ on a spray tan that literally rubbed off on carpet. This stuff doesn't do that at all. I got no weird spots, even though I thought it was very uneven. Once I did the 1st rise, everything looked smooth and even. This stuff is like stupid proof!! You don't have to know what you're really doing and you'll still get a great tanned. I can't rave about this stuff enough! My 1st review 6/8/23. Today is the 21st and I'm still tan.. it's just fading so beautifully. I'll probably reapply before I go on vacation in a couple of weeks so that way the tan will last me my entire vacation with just one application!! I'm just so excited about this. I did NOT receive anything for anyone for this review. Just my honest opinion, busy mom, very pale naturally, I burn so easily in the sun. I'm changing my 4 star review to a 5 star because of how nicely it fades away. We all know, this will make or break a sunless tanner. And again, ZERO ORANGE color.

I’ve tried my fair share of self-tanners over the years, and I can confidently say the B.tan Self Tanner Kit has officially earned a permanent spot in my beauty routine. From start to finish, this kit delivered a flawless experience that exceeded expectations. First off, the application was incredibly smooth. The mousse glided on effortlessly, and thanks to the high-quality mitt included in the kit, I was able to achieve an even, streak-free finish with zero hassle. The mitt itself feels well-made and durable—not the flimsy kind that falls apart after one use. It fits comfortably and gives you full control over application, especially around tricky areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. What really impressed me was the color. No orange tones whatsoever—just a gorgeous, natural-looking tan that blended seamlessly with my skin tone. The tint developed evenly and left me with a sun-kissed glow that looked like I’d spent a weekend at the beach, not like I’d just applied it in my bathroom. And let’s talk about the smell. Most self-tanners come with that unmistakable "fake tan" odor, but not this one. The scent was light, clean, and actually refreshing—something I genuinely didn’t mind having on my skin while it developed. Overall, the B.tan Self Tanner Kit is everything you want in a self-tanning product: easy to apply, streak-free, natural-looking, and pleasant to use. Whether you’re a seasoned self-tanning pro or new to the game, this kit makes the process simple and satisfying. I’ll definitely be repurchasing—and recommending it to all my friends!

Listennn I am a PALE GIRL ok? I might get a little tanned but most of the time either Casper white or tomato red...so...I needed to feel pretty, cause sometimes feeling pretty makes life a little better. This is so budget friendly, so easy to work with, and for us pale bebes it's not gonna make you look like you got dunked in a pool of spray tanning solution. A gentle summer glow if you will. Smell isn't the greatesttttt but it is what it is. Decent timely manner for dry time, I do use a fluffy brush and some baby powder on the bits that get toasty just to be safe. Plus it stops the sticky. A good glow that stays for a few days, and does not seem to fade patchy. Definitely recommend. Also definitely recommend doing the prep work, and doing it with quality care. You want good results, you gotta do the work..and it'll be worth it ☺️

This product works great and isn't orange. It applies green in color. It lasts about three days, so perfect for a weekend getaway or a night out. I love the mitt, keeps my hands from discoloring. Con: It does have an odor that is like other sunless tanners.

I’m naturally very pale, so I’m always on the hunt for a self tanner that gives me a noticeable glow without looking orange or streaky. This one absolutely delivered! It added a ton of color, I was honestly surprised (in the best way) at how rich and even the tan looked after it developed. It gave me that sun kissed bronze tone I usually only get after a vacation. The application was smooth and streak free, and it didn’t cling weirdly to dry spots like some other brands I’ve tried. I used the tanning mitt, which I’d definitely recommend for even coverage. The scent was mild and faded pretty quickly after rinsing off. What really impressed me was the longevity. Most self tanners fade after 5–7 days, but this one lasted close to two full weeks on me even with regular showers and moisturizing. It faded gradually and naturally, without patchiness. If you’re fair-skinned and want a deep, realistic tan that lasts, this is a fantastic option. Just make sure to exfoliate beforehand and moisturize daily to keep the color even.

B.Tan is the only brand I’ve used for the past 6ish years! I’ve tanned since I was a child for cheer competitions, so I have over 15 years of experience with tanning. B.Tan is by far the best lasting, and natural shade of tan I’ve used. I always get compliments on my tan and never worry about looking orange. Like most tans it does transfer to sheets, and clothes prior to washing off. I have not had any staining issues, and always wear satin material clothing while the tan is setting. Best practices for tanning: **I like to tan while sleeping - exfoliate and extra moisturizer the night before - morning of shower/shave, extra moisturizer on elbows, knees, ankles, and hands - night of shower, put lotion over areas above - apply tan with mitt take time massaging the tan into your skin - apply tan to large makeup brush for face contour, and fingers - sleep in satin pajamas - wash off in am with WARM not hot water - do not apply soap to areas besides armpits, private area - heavy lotion for the following days to keep skin hydrated and tan even

Real honest review. I really put this to the test. Let's start with the pros. #1 as a fair skinned girly it didn't make me orange. #2 the color payoff is great. #3 it's very build able. #4 it does have a fake tan smell but nothing too terrible. The cons. #1 neither the tanned af nor the forever & ever tanner holds up. They both will come off and make you look splotchy if you sweat, go in the pool, and/or the ocean. It really defeated the purpose for me trying to look tan while at the beach without damaging my skin from the sun or tanning bed. #2 after applying but before showering you have a terrible sticky feeling up until rinsing it off. #3 when it does start coming off from sweat/water it made me look kinda yellow. So if you're going to use it don't be in a situation where you're going to get hot or wet, or you're going to be in an ugly situation. Also, despite the fact the forever & ever claims to hold up for 11 days don't believe it, there again if you're going to get hot or wet it will very much rub off. I had mine on for 3½ days before I got into the pool and I had to scrub the rest off that didn't rub off in the pool.

I will say I really like things about this product. In my photos you can see me in the same outfit and similar lighting/time of day before, and then 2 days after tanning (1 rinse after applying, then 1 shower with soap ). I like the mitt it comes with and application is fairly simple once you get used to it. It’s also nice that once this product is dried on the skin (before rinsing off) it does not transfer to things. Like I slept in my bed overnight with it on and my white comforter had no tint on it which is impressive considering other products have ruined some clothes I own. I start with applying my back first (to avoid blotching on other areas like my arms etc) then I do my stomach, arms, then legs. The last step I do is my face and feet. They do sell another product for your face I think it’s a mist or spray. But a tip is apply with just the remnants left over after tanning the rest of your body. And or moisturizer before applying to the face so it doesn’t get too dark. If you’re like me, my skin has dry spots. My knees, toes, fingers, ankles, and elbows. I exfoliate daily and vigorously the days before tanning to try to soften these spots. I have tried the trick of applying lotion or moisturizer to these spots. And I apply only the excess of the product left after tanning the rest of my skin. All these tips help a little, but no matter what I do (see pic) my knees and ankles and feet still come out looking darker and splotchy. Which isn’t very seamless or cute. I wish I could fix this. I’m going to try to find other techniques or maybe a different product from their line like the face mister possibly. Because I don't think anyone skips their feet or hands when tanning, nor wants a tan line at the top of their feet or hands. I believe the moisturizer trick worked well for my hands though and my hands look seamless. Another thing, for this product boasting its long length of tan (at least 11 days it says) I have to disagree. After one shower it is there, but once I shower twice or three times it’s almost gone. And I follow the tips of using lukewarm water not hot. And I don’t exfoliate when I’m tanned. Sure there’s a tint still, but it i’m white after 2 showers. I’d say this lasts 3-5 days depending on your shower routine. After that point, the amount left on your skin isn’t effective enough to call it a tan. I’m going to try doing a second coating after rinsing the initial coat off. Last point.. or tip, do not exfoliate or use a wash wrag with coarseness or a loofa to wash your body after tanning, that is if you want it to stay. Also do not dry your body off vigorously with a towel. You will scratch the tint off on your skin. I’ve had patches on my knees and feet with my white skin peaking through due to this. My final thoughts, I’m likely going to try to find a different product because for the amount of effort and rinsing for the tan for application, it’s not worth the time it lasts. Or I need to find a way to get those rough patches of skin gone but it’s unlikely I can get that removed completely. A product I actually like more is the jergens brand tan lotion that you don’t need to rinse off after applying. The only thing is it transfers initially if you put clothes on right after but after it’s dried and on there it doesn’t have that issue.
