Review on B.Tan Bronzer Free Sunless Tanner Water - Achieve A Darker, Transfer-Proof Tan Fast With Coconut Water & Vitamin E - Vegan And Cruelty-Free by Lloyd Rodriguez

Ok so I'm Scottish and Irish and have GHOSTLY pale skin. My normal skin color in the summer is paler than most regular white people in the winter. You can see all the pink undertones and the veins and everything. I also have very very textured skin and my legs and arms are always dry and bumpy so very self tanner, application method, and application tool combo I've tried has always resulted in various degrees of streaks and splotches, no matter how much I exfoliate, moisturize, blend, etc. I also am not fond of coconut oil or its smell. I tried a tanning water before this and as long as I blended with a dense self tanning blending brush) until my arm muscles gave out and then some, after a ton of exfoliating and moisturizing, it worked kind of well. I'd still have to scrub my wrists, elbows, toes, around my feet, ankles, armpit creases, and cleavage to get the darker areas lighter and then add more tanner in certain spots on my arms and legs. Still had to wait like 8 hours to shower and still ended up a little orange-y.With this B.Tan Act Natural, I exfoliated, moisturized rough spots, and then applied with my tanning brush everywhere except my belly and mid and low back. It didn't feel as sticky as other tanners and dried a little more quickly. The coconut smell dissipated after awhile and turned into a less pleasant smell but not horrid. After 1-2 hours I jumped in the shower and gently cleansed my skin with just my hand and some Cetaphil cleanser. I was a little darker by then, which is when the picture here is from. After washing it off and then going to bed, I woke up the next day a little darker too. The tops of my feet and my ankles and wrists were way too dark even though I went very light on product and even wiped lightly with a tissue after blending those areas. On the rest of me though, the color was golden and not orange-y in the slightest, and my skin was very soft and moisturized, and it stayed moisturized after showers with no lotion. This tanner does come off my face VERY quickly though, in like 2 days. I don't wear makeup except once or twice on weekends but I work out almost every day and shower and wash my face with a gentle cleanser, and then I use some micellar water in the mornings. This has worked the best so far overall. I think next, I'll try a different variety from this same brand.
