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

Literally could not be a better product for my first time at-home tanning. Does an amazing blended job and when its developed to the color you prefer you just rinse off. It doesnt turn splotchy when its fading and I am even able to scrub and do a new tan every week with no issues what so ever. LOVE THIS.

I love this self tanner, this is my go to in the summer. It's a great color, not orange and holds well through showers and swimming. It does have a bit of an odor so I apply mine overnight and wash in the morning to get rid of the smell.

Not super dark but leaves a natural tan with a decent coconut scent! Perfect for the winter or summer.Lasts a few days and doesn’t require to be washed off after application .

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.

This is my first time using a sunless tanning solution and I’m so happy with the results of this product! Definitely buy the package with the hand mitt or get the mitt separately - this makes the application process a lot smoother and more consistent for color results. As for results, it’s true that it doesn’t bleed onto your clothes or the bed - thus far at least in my experience - and it is key to exfoliate. And I’m very happy that it doesn’t look like I’m trying to be an Oompa Loompa - therefore, the tan looks very natural and not orange. For me, the tan stays present for several days - maybe even longer than a week - and reapplying once I feel near to my natural coloring is made easier when exfoliating some of the bends of the body (elbows, ankle bones, etc.) I did notice that if my skin gets too dry, there will sometimes show faint speckles indicating the tanning locations I’ve covered - however, this can be remedied by hydrating my skin. Additionally - and this is very niche - I noticed that when I wear my Apple Watch for sleep tracking, this can mess with the coloring on my wrist if I wear it too tight with a silicone band. Loosening the watch slightly seems to do the trick! Another niche thing; I’m Italian and thus, very hairy, and I had initially been concerned that this would mess with the coloring results but, it didn’t! Yay tan and hairy! And finally, listen to the instructions when it says to do long strokes when applying - this makes the coloring, again, more consistent - and you can use remaining foam/a small amount of foam on the edge of the mitt in order to get your face, nooks and crannies, etc. and if you need some extra help, phone a friend or partner(s) to get those regions you can’t reach because you’re not a contortionist! All in all, this is a great product for your self-tanning, sans risk of melanoma solutions!

It contains Phenoxyethanol, a known allergen that can cause itching. (For me it DOES afterwards)Studies have shown that repeated exposure can lead to developmental toxicity, as well as adverse effects on blood, liver, and fertility. It may also disrupt the endocrine system.As someone who is now experiencing chronic illness from when I used to be completely healthy, I have become more aware of the toxic substances in everyday products. It is important to be mindful of what we put on our bodies, especially when it comes to products like tanning lotion where you’re rubbing it all over your body.That's why I have switched to Beauty by Earth Tanning Mousse in Medium to Dark. Not only does it give me a beautiful color, but it is nontoxic and fragrance-free, something I have struggled to find in other products. I highly recommend it as a safer alternative!

Works well
