Bondi Sands Liquid Gold Self Tanning Foam | Lightweight + Quick Dry Foam Enriched with Argan Oil, Provides a Hydrated Streak-Free Tan | 6.76 Oz/200 mL

Between Bondi Sands and B.Tan products I don't think I'll ever be rocking my completely natural skin. It's too easy to look gloriously golden like I did as a kid who spent too much time in the sun every day. I loved the tan I had in my pre-tan years but as an adult, I cringe at the thought of the skin damage I'd cause by soaking it up now.Bondi's Liquid Gold line is probably my favorite of all their products. It really doubles down on that golden tone so you glow beautifully. It's not an especially dark tanner (though you can double layer it for one) but being so very pale (KVD Light 004 and NARS Siberia kind of pale) that's a bonus for me. I don't want to wake up the next day and have people thinking I'm wearing Brownface. The color this gives me from one application is a lot like I'd expect after a weekend at the beach, but I've always been someone who tans exceptionally well despite my fair skin. So I'd estimate one go of this takes me about 3 shades darker, maybe 4.Development time is true to the 5-6 hours, that's when I saw the most prominent color and it didn't seem to deepen after that. There's little to no DHA smell and the Bondi coconut scent is subtle but pleasant and dissapates relatively quickly unlike with their gradual tanning milk where it tends to linger a while. It dries down fully with no remanining tackiness on the skin within about 10 minutes but you can safely sit down and put on a loose robe or something within a handful of seconds after buffing in the mousse. Huge bonus for me! I do not like standing around almost naked like an idiot waiting for a self tanner to dry.Color is also super even and doesn't cling as badly to dry areas as other mousses have done for me. I always rub a little Aquaphor or one of my thicker face creams on my elbows, knees, and wrists before tanning and nearly always end up with them much darker anyway, but not so with this. My elbows are maybe a bit dark but not terribly so and I put that more on just how rough that area is for me usually. Also impressive is how well it blended out some of the stubborn old tan I had left in a few patches that just would not come off my skin. fI was careful to not put much product in those areas but some overlap still happens. Yet, the deepening was almost negligent in those areas and the rest of the color blends into it so well you can hardly tell unless you're really looking for it.Highly recommend this tanner if you're looking for a medium kind of depth and/or a newer person to tanning. You'll get a very visible result but not a shockingly dramatic one with a very easy-to-use product (no rinsing or showering required here!). Bondi also tends to last pretty well, especially if you use a gradual tanner to help prolong the tan or just aid it in fading nicer. I rarely get icky patchy fading anywhere but my wrists where I have to wash my hands often for work, but those are easily corrected. It's so nice not having to babysit my tan every single day.

I love this self tanning foam! It has a tint to it so you can see that you are covered evenly. It has a nice clean smell and a natural looking color. It does not look orange or have a nasty smell. This is my third bottle and I plan to always buy this product

When I first apply this product I find the smell to be pleasant, but after a few hours it does develop that frito smell. To achieve the shade I usually go for, I have to use 2 coats of this 2 nights in a row which uses more product that I’d normally like.

It’s easy to use, no mess. I also purchased a mitt to apply it. After a while, my legs, arms, and face have a nice bronze. It doesn’t wash off even after a shower. It’s a good product, for the price.

IN LOVE! Definitely gives you the gold color, easy application and smoothly, if you want to remove just get tanner remover! Last about a week!

I looked up dozens of self-tanners, and truly - any product is dependent upon your skin type and how "tan" you're looking to be. I just wanted a glowing tone, but something that wasn't going to look super unnatural (as unnatural as it already is!). It goes on very easily, especially using the mitt. The scent isn't terrible, but it does linger on and after a while was nauseating... however, most tanners will have a strong odor to them because of what it is made of. After the first use, I noticed a bit of a glow within several hours. Then the more I put on, it didn't seem to get any darker. I think this is meant to be just a slight glow tone and not "tan." So I guess it depends what you're looking for - I do like this product because the toning is gradual.

I've tried lots of different self tanning products, but this is the only one that I'll buy again because it's great! Easy to apply and looks natural.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff. I have used it on several occasions now - for family photos, vacation, a wedding, to a concert in the summer heat, and even just on a weekend to feel good about myself. Coming from someone who used be able to make even Jergens natural glow moisturizer look streaky on her legs (which is nearly impossible), I can tell you that this foam Bondi Sands is incredibly easy to apply and I have NO STREAKS!! Admittedly, I do use a wonderful cheap Amazon self-tanning mitten to apply it, but even when I apply it to my face with my hand, it's an even tone.Every time I have used this, I get asked if I was on vacation or if I had been tanning. It is a very natural color, not orange. I apply it at night because the smell is VERY strong and not the greatest. I usually do two application in advance of my event and I look perfectly sunkissed by that 3rd day after the two applications. As usual, carefully around hair (like eyebrows) and joints with loose skin (like knees and elbows).I highly recommend this product!
