Bondi Sands Technocolor 1 Hour Express Tanning Foam, Available in 4 Shades

Works extremely well for pale skin. Actual pale skin, that does not tan. Not sort of tan skin that people call themselves pale. Legit pink pale Irish skin, this looks natural and goes on really easy. Not too dark. Smells slightly biscuity but not too bad after washing off. Didn’t give me the fake tan hands or feet either. Used a brush and then lotion on all my dry spots before and after which I think is the trick. Didn’t even stick to knees or elbows. Works like a dream. Slept in it and color came out great next day. Highly recommend.

I'm incredibly pale with very sensitive skin. I've been searching for a self-tanner for literally over a decade that doesn't stink, isn't streaky, look even remotely natural, and won't make me look like an oompah loompah. Not only does this product smell good, but it also dries incredibly fast, isn't streaky at all, and gives me the most perfect olive-toned tan. It makes me look like I actually have the ability to tan naturally, which is insane. I absolutely love this product and recommend it to all of the pale girlies with pink undertones. Avoid anything that says "golden". I cannot recommend this product enough

I have extremely sensitive skin. This is the only self tanner I've ever used that doesn't break me out. Ever. It goes on beautifully, gives gorgeous even color without streaking, doesn't fade patchy, and reapplication is seamless. I cannot say enough good things about this product. The color looks EXACTLY like my natural tan. I do leave it on for longer than one hour (usually somewhere around 5 give or take before rinsing) and I bake in brown lounge wear so I can't speak to transfer, but once I've rinsed off, I've never gotten any staining on my clothes. I've also not been brave enough to try it on my face yet lol. I really hope this doesn't get discontinued!!!

I’m violently Caucasian to the point of being almost translucent with cool undertones. I’ve tried so many self tanners over the years and usually end up orange. Even the violet based ones usually end up making me look orange or they just don’t work. I bought this on a whim and received it today and am absolutely blown away with the results. I was a bit thrown off by the bottle because it said to twist and I did and then the top came off and now there’s some tan juice on my bathroom floor BUT besides that, this tan is so so good. It goes on smooth, dries down almost immediately so make sure you work fast, isn’t sticky, and somehow blends seamlessly into the places you aren’t tanning so you don’t get those intense lines. I don’t love to tan my feet and hands so when I’m done with my body I use whatever’s left over on the mitt to lightly go over them and after waiting for 2ish hours and rinsing, everything blends. No streaks, no harsh lines, and the blue undertone matches my skin tone so well it looks exactly the way I look when I get a real tan. I saw some reviews that said it’s not very dark which is true but honestly I just want to glow.. not change my ethnicity via self tan. If you’re the color of printer paper naturally, a subtle glow is really all you need. Overall I’m extremely pleased with this product and will update on it’s longevity, how it holds up with working out and sweaty summer heat and if it layers okay. I’m hoping I’ll only need to use it once a week but I can’t form any opinions on that until some time has passed.

I’m Irish/finnish. I’m as white as can be, and tanners normally look horrendous on me and then I’m even more self conscious than I was before. Not with this. It’s so natural and easy to apply. It’s very dark when you put it in which is great because you can do your whole body and know that your entire back is covered!!! No more pale square in the center of yalls backs 😂😂 just commit and buy!!!

On a mission to try all the self tanners until I find one that doesn't turn me orange and actually sticks to my stretch marks (so far the only fake tan that meets the criteria has been a professional airbrush tan). This review is for the Emerald version of this one, which is supposed to be a dark olive tan. Pros: - Streak-free! Absolutely by far the most consistent application I've gotten with any DIY tan, including other Bondi products. - Is one of the better ones as far as stretch marks go. Some self tanners do not stick to that skin at all and I end up looking like a tiger. Others look kinda muddy on the skin surrounding the stretch marks. This one doesn't make them the exact same color as my "normal" skin, but at least it does tan them a little. - the tan seems to be pretty buildable. In my picture, I did the first application left on for 4 hours and then did a second application the next day for 1 hour. In the picture - my arm already had a good base tan but my stomach was fully un-tanned with all previous self tanner removed. Neutral: - has the bad self tanner smell that every one has. Lingers for a solid 24 hours even despite showering. - the guide color does rub off on clothes but not as bad as some others. You still need to sit around on a towel pretty much naked or in very loose clothing that you don't mind getting stained. Cons: - the color Emerald is ...weird. I have a neutral-cool skintone and every self tanner, even the violet base ones, pulls orange AF on me, so I figured it couldn't hurt to try olive and see if the green undertone helped... it did not. On my fully natural pale skin, it actually looks like a nice olive tan and isn't super orange. However, on my skin that DOES have a real tan going (my arms and legs), it is probably the worst of them all as far as orange tone goes. I'm *certain* it would look better on someone with a true olive tone so I'm not going to give it super low stars. I think the color mismatch is my own fault. But this one is NOT for people with cool toned skin 😂

I've been using St. Tropez Express tan for years, but I recently tried this and it blew my mind. I'm extremely pale with ZERO yellow/warm undertones in my skin. I'm one of those people who burns after being in the sun for five minutes, and year-round I either look transparent-white or pale pink depending on how irritated my skin is (I have rosacea). I'm not one of those people who claims to have fair skin but actually wears a neutral or warm foundation shade. I'm genuinely EXTREMELY fair, like "the lightest shade of foundation still looks orange/yellow on me" fair -- so I know what I'm talking about when I say this tanner is actually pretty cool toned... more than anything I've tried yet, at least. Of course there's still some golden tones , but it's mainly a dark pinky beige when it fully develops. For girlies who actually have fair cool-toned or pink skin, you'll know how rare this is. It's almost impossible to find any complexion product that doesn't pull orange, but the first time I had this on after it fully developed I felt like it mimicked what I would look like if I could actually -theoretically- get a natural tan -- dark pinky beige with just a hint of warmth. I knew it was promising when it literally came out of the bottle looking INDIGO GREY. Real ones know the excitement of finding a true grey-toned product.... As far as performance goes, I personally think it's hard to fairly judge self tanners because a lot of it comes down to user error. Even people who have been tanning for years can do a lazy job exfoliating and their tan will turn out blotchy and come off in 5 days. That being said, there was a NOTICEABLE difference in how quickly and evenly this faded on me. The St. Tropez tanner used to come off SO bad in the creases of my elbows and knees after about a week, and I'd have these huge awkward white spots where you could clearly see where the tan had rubbed off. Well... not with this one!! Again, idk how much of that was down to my skin prep, but I'm on my second application of this product and I still haven't seen any rubbing off on those high-friction/sweat areas (I live in Texas, so YES this is thoroughly sweat tested). I can't guarantee that this product will work this well for everyone, but for the true fair/cool toned girls out there I think you have a way better chance of success with this than with other more "universal" self tan shades. Everyone has different preferences so this might STILL look a tiny bit too golden for your taste if you're as pale as I am, but this is definitely the least orange-toned self-tan product I've ever used. Never going back to St. Tropez lol. And this is cheaper too!

This was ok...didnt last as long as I would like. Also not as dark as I would like.

Erstes Ergebnis TOP! Farbe etc. - habe mir einen Pinsel und Handschuh zum Auftragen gekauft und je nach Zone benutzt. Wenn jetzt noch die Haltbarkeit passt, bin ich begeistert!

Applicazione e rimozione facili, colore perfetto e non esagerato specialmente per ragazze di carnagione molto molto chiara (anche per pelli a sottotono neutro o freddo). Non da assolutamente sull’’arancione ma su un color abbronzatura naturale. Perfetto anche per principianti. Durata circa 10 giorni, se dal sesto/settimo si effettua un leggerissimo scrub durante la doccia (es, con una spugna non troppo aggressiva) non lascia a macchie e tende a scaricare il colore gradualmente. Consigliatissimo, nessuno si è accorto che si trattava di abbronzatura artificiale. Il risultato è ottimo anche solo con un’ora/ un’ora e mezza di applicazione. Applicato su un’abbronzatura preesistente da un effetto ancora migliore.

Absolutely love this tan. The glow is so natural, & does not make you feel/look like the adolescent days. (Does smell like regular tan) The way this tan fades is unreal. I have never experienced patchiness, which saves you from having to scrub. I do 1 coat, 3 pumps each limb segement. I apply early afternoon & leave it on until the night of, have a shower like normal. Stray away from using too much soap+scrubbing when removing.

Perfekte

Great color but it gives me red itchy allergy bumps all over my body.
