Self Tan Dark - Mousse de Bronzage

Loved it, light texture

This was gifted to me by StTropez. I love it, it was so smooth and such a nice glow. It smells amazing ! Foamy texture, easy applicable. I used a small brush and even tried it on my face as contour and came out perfect.

 Good product

The white one last longer, but this is a quick tan I like to make this one with the white when they make for the perfect dark lasting tan

does the job

the pros: won't make you look orange, doesn't transfer too easily once it's dry, isn't streaky after it washes off. cons: strong self tan smell. not an issue, but they shouldn't claim it doesn't when it does. be prepared to wake up early and do this on a weekend, because although the end result doesn't look patchy, it goes on patchy. ESPECIALLY on the face. any healing acne scabs turn dark brown. you basically have to stay home for the whole 8 hours. and it's STICKY. and uncomfortable. other reviewers should remember the colour that goes on is only a guide colour so you can see what you're doing. it does not reflect what the tan will look like. it has a green tinge so it doesn't look orange in case you decide to go outside.

The very best

My favorite brand of all time. I’ve been through 15+ bottles of the dark, the original, the express, the Purity (clear one with no guide color) and the face spray over the years. I always keep one of each in my cupboard because they’re great for different events. In a hurry? Express tan. Want the darkest? Dark mousse. Want to tan and walk out the door without the guide color on? Purity mousse. Want to tan when you’re at your palest? Original tan. This review is about the dark- yes it comes out green. Yes that is on purpose, it creates a natural olive color that looks so nice. Trust the process! I’m a freckled Irish/English person and the dark is what I use a month into summer when I finally have a hint of a base tan from all the time I spend at the pool. I use SPF daily and St Tropez allows me to have a tan without the skin damage. All of them are sticky while they dry but I find that within 3-5 minutes I’m good to go. I have literally never had a streaking issue with any of them. I do lotion my knees beforehand so that the tan doesn’t accumulate there. But other than that, I don’t take any precautions besides going slowly and deliberately. One reviewer mentioned bottles breaking. I’m not sure what they’re doing to their bottles but I have never had one break in 6+ years :) The blue St Tropez mitt sucks and won’t last more than three tans before tearing. I’d recommend buying a high quality reusable one.

Not worth the hype or price.

First of all it just does not dry. So sticky forever! So you can forget about putting on clothes or doing anything until you shower. And when you shower about 95% washes off. Also pump stops working about half way through the bottle so can’t even get the product out. And it is so drying on your skin!

Love love love

I have used this one and the classic mousse for years. I by far prefer this one over the classic. For everyone saying bottles are expired and green - no. I had a bottle sitting in my cabinet for years (went through a period of no self tanning) and it was perfectly fine when I finally used it. The green color is supposed to be there so you don’t look orange like other self tanners. It looks so much more natural on my fair skin (makes it more olive toned than golden). I will say the biggest con with this is the stickiness. I try to stand in front of a fan after applying but it still does feel sticky. I leave on 8 hours and just suffer through it because the color is so good. It gets you TAN but so natural. It also fades super well and not splotchy. Love love love.

As always, St.Tropez works

St. Tropez always gives a non-streaky look no matter how terribly you apply it. It's fool proof! However, it isn't as dark as I would like. It also has a pretty potent self-tanner scent. Overall, it's good!

Great product! Mine was not green and it dried fast. Loved the results

Too green!

Too green! I’m sure they are trying to make it more natural looking with olive tones with the green instead of orange but I look like I’m a shade of green and sick! I’m always trying new tanning products but I’m definitely sticking to Loving Tan or VersaSpa

Make sure you keep deodorant and perfume on you

Not a terrible tan BUT it left me with the WORST spray tan BO I’ve ever had. I was so self conscious throughout the weekend visiting friends because it was so pungent. I don’t normally even struggle with BO but for some reason this tanner made me stink like no other. For that reason I will never use this product. Gave it to my mom

Do not buy this product, it is extremely sticky also too way to long to dry. I was expecting to be really really dark by the look of it when I put it on, all of it washed off in the shower ( I have never seen this happen before) the color isn’t dark at all. I also used 2 coats and came out a lighter color than using 2 coats of the classic color. Returning asap.

NO!

The color this gives you is beautiful. BUT I still get water streaks after 12 hours of applying this tanner. This tanner does not hold up as well as it says! Half the bottle, in the trash!
