+ Lux Unfiltered - Summer Skin Classic Gradual Self Tanner - Santal

I’ve repurchased this multiple times! I am very fair skinned and am an avid self tanner. This is by far my favorite gradual lotion I have found! Lightweight, super hydrating and not streaky at all!! The scent is incredible and smells expensive!!! I use this on its own for a quick and easy light tan, or as a midweek refresh to my weekly self-tanning foam. No orange color at all, just the perfect bronze, sun-kissed glow that lasts me up to a week! SO GOOD!!!

The most gorgeous, natural tan but the best part is the smell. Oh wow. I’ve tried tonnnns of self tanners. The new vanilla scent is insaneeee yall. It smells like perfume. Also buildable but great results after one use. Doesn’t dry out my skin and dries super fast after applying. I apply after shower and before I get in bed. NO transfer onto sheets. 10/10, no notes. Best tanner out there. Will be stocking up and won’t be using any others.

This is my go to for sun-kissed looking skin. I am pretty fair (I tan easily but avoid due to skin cancer in my family) and this color is SO natural and beautiful. My husband couldn’t even tell it was self tanner and in the past he has called me out for poor self tanner 😆 And the smell! The scent is vanilla caviar and literally smells like expensive vanilla lotion. I put this on after showering as my daily lotion twice a week. Some weeks only once. If this product is new to you, please, please, please remember to wash your hands after! If you don’t your palms and hand will look crazy. I learned this the hard way. So, now I wash my hands really good and use a brush to brush on a TINY amount onto my wrists and top of my hand. This is probably my 7th bottle of this product and you can tell from the picture that it is well loved. But the first 4 I bought were the old scent and formulation (Santal with a wood cap) but the last 3 have been the new vanilla formulation and it’s even better. I will be repurchasing for life 👌🏼

This was the first self tanner lotion I've used. I thought the Santal smell was okay, it definitely lingers for a while and I found it a little nauseating, so I'd like to try vanilla next. I'm pretty pale with pinkish undertones, and I felt this one was a little yellow after the first day, but it fades really well and is quite flattering. I applied with a soft mitt, making sure to add a generous amount and blend well. I added a bit of lotion to knees, elbows, feet, etc before application but still ended up with streaky blotchy feet so not quite sure how to master that. I added just the slightest amount to my face, and broke out, so stick to a face tanning product instead. Overall I think it's a very forgiving gradual tanner that is easy to apply and build up color over a few days.

I don’t write many Amazon reviews but this product deserves one. First, love the tan. It applies really easily and develops throughout the day (or night). I apply almost directly after showering. Application takes less than 5 minutes. Truly the lazy girl/or super busy mom way to tan. I have a few lessons learned and notes: 1. Use a tanning mitt and brush for your toes and hands 2. It takes longer than 5 minutes to settle in. I usually don’t put clothes on for at least 10 minutes to let it fully dry 3. At first it just smells like the scent of the lotion, the. throughout the day as the tan develops, the smell develops. It’s not terrible but it doesn’t go away until you shower 4. I’ve used it on my face twice, once in the morning but I sweat it off throughout the day. Once at night, that was better. I didn’t break out, but I don’t recommend it. I’d just adjust makeup shades or get bronzing drops 5. Alone, it provides a subtle shade change. Paired a few days after my self tanner(same brand), it looks incredible and extends the tan life 6. Exfoliates off easily 7. It does not come off on my white sheets while sleeping after applying 8. Do not apply and then put yourself in a sweating situation for at least 2-3 hours, it will streak or wear off 9. Takes 5-7 hours to show with 8 hours being the final color for me 10. No rinse off needed like self tanner so super convenient for passive tanning!

I had high hopes for this product because I purchased it based on an influencer that I follow that uses it. My opinion is that it smells good, the application is smooth. But when I slept in it and woke up this morning I took a shower immediately to try to wash some of it off because it’s too orange for me and it definitely left streaks. I’m disappointed.

Update: I've used this product 3 times now, and even with using regular lotion on my hands, and washing them immediately after application, my palms are still SO ORANGE. Bumped down to 3 stars. Original review: After using this product once, im giving 4 stars. **I showered, exfoliated and shaved, then put on this lotion, and went to bed an hour later.** (I will update after more use) Pros: 1. LOVE that there is not even a slight chemical development smell. 2. Leaves a really nice color after just one use! 3. Getting in bed sleep soon after application did not cause any streaking! Cons: 1. The fragrance is pretty strong (but definitely smells like roses and is personally preferred to a chemical smell) 2. Really focus on rubbing it in or it will streak 3. There is a very distinct color break on my wrist from washing my hands, but my palms are still a little orange Overall, I am pleased so far!

So I didn’t have high expectations on this but figured eh why not try it. Well I was shook when I woke up this morning and saw what transpired! Another reviewer said she put it on before bed, so that’s what I did. I need to say I’m not one of those “take your time and use sponges etc kinda girl”. I put it on like lotion, let it dry, went to bed (hoping my sheets wouldn’t be ruined”. Woke up to a nice tan! My sheets had zero residue or transfer (I have white sheets 😮). I am shocked after one application that this is the result. How will it wear? I’ll have to update you. But thus far I’m sold! Smell is eh. Initially it smells like self tanner. But this morning I don’t smell any of that, so it does fade thankfully. I will say around my wrists and toes I will be a bit more careful putting it on. But overall this is a win and so easy, which is a major plus for me. UPDATE: So it wore great! Faded naturally off (unlike those booth spray tans) and I did not reapply this for a week and color stayed as it did in the picture. I’m buying more!!

Ich habe helle Haut und durch die Lotion einen leichten Teint was mir sehr gut gefällt. Im Hochsommer wird es etwas fleickig durch das starke schwitzen.

This had a smell which I hate. Would not recommend. Bought it because I am allergic to most tan products but this was ok but smell let it down

Excellent fake sun tanner cream. Easy to rub in, no smell ( Santal version ).

Love this tanning lotion, blends well no streaks, easy to apply. Very gradual natural tan. Bit expensive but worth it.

The colour produced ( takes around 8-10 hours) looks really natural and even and good level of moisturisation too. Initially the smell is nice but after 1 or 2 hours it does have that 'fake tan' smell. Not as badly as some, but still there. Overall though, very pleased and would buy again.
