Does this product work as a self tanner, or does it only work if you lay in the sun/tanning beds?

it does not. It has very little cosmetic bronzer. I would recommend Tan towels or fake bake as a self-tanner. This product is best used in a tanning bed for natural color enhancer.

I let it dry for a few hours & had no problem. It's been the best self tanning product I've ever used!Sondra D.

Supposedly yes. That was the reason I purchased it for. I did not like it. Too stiff and did not massage evenly into the skin. I used it once and that was it. For normal lotion that would work ok, but for self tanner it has to go on evenly and I felt it did not do a good job.

The soft brown side and the self tanner has some color to it so you can see it on your skin as you apply it. Be sure not to shower for 8 to 10 hrs after application Be very easy over elbows knees heels and feet. Apply a few nights now row to reach desired color then only reapply once a week. Before first application exfoliate vigorously and shake it really does help absorb the color. I hope this helps!

It is not a self tanner, it works great for outdoor tanning. This is the best outdoor tanning gelee that I have used. It doesn't really have a tint of color in it. It is a orange gel that melts as you rub it on so it's like a oil. Definitely worth trying

Honestly, I have not tried it with a spray tan. However, I don't think it would work because it is a bronzer, and it's very light so it's designed to work with the beds. You could probably try a sunless tan lotion, but if it were me I'd just buy either a tan extender such as Hempz or if you're doing a "cocktail" (lvl 3 tan + spray tan) on the same day this could work. I'd try a sample packet of either this or what they sell in the salon that goes with the cocktail. Sorry! Hope this helps a little! :)

Hey Joyce! I use this product after I tan and I absolutely love it...it helps keep me from peeling if I get a little too much sun and it extends the life of my tan. I've never remembered it to have any self-tanner or bronzing qualities...only moisturizing. I hope this helps!

This is for tanning beds and outside tanning. It also says to wear out for a shimmery look. It is not a self tanning lotion but is very nice to wear even when not tanning because it smells good and has great hydration!!

I am agree with 1st answer by PsychoTrixie. I am regular tanner and always looking for better tanning products, it worked quite well. I am satisfied. At this moment it is my NO1.

No. This browning lotion is not a sunless lotion. If you apply this lotion without going into the sun when you shower, it will all come off and you will be left where you started. It should be used either in a tanning bed or when outside in the sun. I also wouldn't recommend wearing this lotion out or with clothing as it is greasy and will stain fabric.

I would say yes and I recommend this product for a slight tan appearance. I am sure with the real tan combined with the self-tanner your skin will look amazing. Just watch out for how often you apply this cream because the label reads: "Apply every 2 day."

No it isn't a self tanner. It leaves skin healthy looking with out the thick sticky greasy look of lotions. I would definitely spray on after using a self tanner, tanning bed, spray tan. This product is that light and works wonders

I didn't actually use mine in a tanning bed. I go on vacation and never come home with a tan. I recently just took this lotion to Mexico, and I came back with a definitely noticable tan. I works in the natural sun for sure. Just watch the amount that you put on your face, I found when I started to sweat from the heat, it got in my eyes and it stung a bit.

No this product is to be worn in a tanning bed and not alone as a sunless tanner.

Self tanner seems to always leave my skin fairly dry and I have very sensitive skin. I tend to receive rashes from self tanner as well. This is an all natural self tanner here. I find if I put the self tanner on and make sure to shower immediately following 8 hours I am fine. I use aveeno lotion after my shower (for sensitive skin/extra dry skin). This solves my issue. I happen to be a chemist and have looked up the chemicals personally and their harmful effects. This lotion rates very low for harmful skin side effects. I would recommend it if you tend to have skin issues. You might want to look up if their is such thing as a hypo-allergenic self tanner.

It doesn't really make you much darker immediately, its more like it adds a kind of glow to your skin.I have VERY pale skin and I've been using this for a month and laying out a couple times a week. I havent gotten sunburnt and I'm the darkest I've ever been!

This product is for indoor or outdoor tanning.. not a self tanner. JWOW offers a self tanning spray which I unfortunately don't carry.
