THE BEST SELF TANNER BY FAR! April 9, 2008 3 out of 3 found this comment useful.
I highly recommend it because this is the ONLY TAN that doesn't streak AND doesn't clog pores! The tinted self tanners are the ones that streak and stains. Also, they'll easily fade away with the first shower! But this one is so easily applied you just smooth it in and it will dry out with NO STREAKS plus a golden hue!! NOT ORANGE! ways to apply it is u should exfoliate 1st then apply lotion all over (if you're applying it to your face then u should moisturize it because thats what I do), wait for it to get absorbed by the skin for 15-30 mins then apply the clarins self tanner. If you want a darker color re-apply it after 3 hrs or so. THE BEST!
Great Sunless Tanner! February 3, 2008 6 out of 7 found this comment useful.
This is one of the best sunless tanners I've tried, and I plan on purchasing it again. I used it on my face and body.
The Pros:
1. The color turns out really natural looking, not orange at all.
2. It does not darken pores. Before trying this product I was using Fake Bake. Fake Bake did give me nice color, but it also darkened every pore on my face. The Clarins product does not do that, it goes on very even.
3. Some sunless tanners seem very drying to the skin, but this one left my skin feeling soft and moisturized.
The Cons: (why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5)
1. There's no color guide, it goes on clear. So if you miss a spot it's a little hard to tell. For the most part I didn't have a problem, just a little bit near my ankles at first. It just takes practice.
2. The price is a little high for the amount you get. However, a little bit of this stuff goes a long way.
3. It does smell! The smell is the strongest for about the first hour you put it on, then fades. The smell does go away completely after you shower.
really good self tanner January 29, 2008 4 out of 4 found this comment useful.
ive used clarins self tanning instant gel for about a year now. this has to be the best self tanner ive used for my body. however i have used it on my face and noticed that i had breakouts and it would be blochy in the areas where there is dry skin, so i dont recommend it for the face. i used it on my legs and found that its not that great either, the color is really good and natural, it wont streak or look orange, its just that it comes off from shaving your legs and if you use it during the summer, it will come off in chlorine and in the ocean. i use it on my arms, chest and neck and i absolutly love it. its so unbelievably natural. the only thing is that i am very pale so it looks okay on me doesnt give me a tan, it just gives me a color so that i dont look pale. i think it would be best on darker skined people and give them really good color. just be sure to wash your hands after it will leave them orange. ive just ordered the clarins radiance plus self tanner instant gel-cream. ive read a lot of good reviews on this and am going to try it on my face, hopeuflly its good! i recommend the clarins self tanning instant gel and think everyone who is looking for good , natural color should try this!
Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel 4.4oz December 2, 2007 4 out of 4 found this comment useful.
This product is awesome. I live in the Caribbean. I spent 10 yrs sailing the Caribbean. I now live in Tortola BVI and don't do the beach and sun like I used too. I am 56 and know the damage sun can do, but to be tan I really didn't care. Somehow I look much better than I should, due to Retin A, but prefer to be tan. Based on the reviews, I tried this product, and even though I am always tan, this product enriched my color and without lying out in the sun everyday, I look great. No orange, have had no issues with it staining my clothes, dries quickly, and the color is nice, not orange. Just wash your hands well after applying. I usually apply in the am, get dressed and on my way. I just ordered another 4 tubes, but they won't ship down here so have them sent to my sister and she mails them down. I told her to keep a tube (she lives in Fla.) and try it. I highly recommend it, and I have tried a lot. Typically they won't go beyond my initial tan, but this one works. Denise
Great Product! September 6, 2007 3 out of 3 found this comment useful.
Really natural looking. easy to apply. the smell other reviewers complained of dissipates within minutes. I typically hate self tanners but really like this one bc it dries fast and isn't streaky
