Self Tanners - Tomball,TX

I am in the same position. I started using Jergens tanning lotion and it is not like the self tanners. It doesn't wash off and I don't look orange and it really works.

Both my daughter and I are redheads and fairskinned. When I was much younger, I had to work up gradually to get my tan, since I taught simming lessons and was a lifeguard.
My daughter does it the easy way, she gets a tan sprayed on that lasts for several weeks, she just has to be careful the first 24 hours until it 'sets in' and not wear white the first day or two.

Banana Boat has a self tanner that works good. It does not streak and doesn't smell bad. Good luck!

Avon has a good self tanning product that works well, does not turn you orange, and does not have a strong smell. If you don't know anyone that sells avon you can go online and order from their website. I hope that this helps.

Mary Kay has a good, subtle one.

Hi B.! I use a great self-tanner!! You can buy it at Ulta or Sephora and it comes in different forms (foam, lotion, etc). It also can come in travel sizes and has different steps, however I've only used Step 3. It's called ST. TROPEZ and it's in a white bottle w/turqouise writing and a black pump. It's extremely dark when going on so use latex gloves or wash hands after applying. It lasts for about a week & I LOVE IT!

It's the only one I've found, used, and liked that doesn't smell bad, and looks natural. It definately won't make you look orange!! You can also mix it with a little body lotion & or face lotion when applying and it won't be as much tan if you don't want it too dark. It works on all skin tones as I'm a pretty fair-skinned woman!

It does cost more than the others around $25-$35/bottle but it's worth it! Mix it with the body lotion and it lasts longer!

Hope you find one you like!

Flash Bronzer by Lancome. Looke for the gift set that has the exfoliating scrub and an after lotion. Looks great and smells great and lasts a long time. Hope this helps

Origins and Clarins both make really good self tanners. All self tanners have and odd smell due to the reaction with your skin. The smell will last as long as the lotion is still on.

This is not a self-tanner but a tan-accelerator and will get you a nice dark tan in a very short amount of sun time and it lasts forever and smells a little like coffee and brown sugar but the smell only lasts as long as you're wearing the stuff in the sun. It's called "Maui Babe" and it's miraculous!!!! You have to order it on the internet from Hawaii, it goes on brown and reacts with the sun to brown you to a really beautiful color of brown. I'm very fair-skinned and get a gorgeous tan with it in just a couple of days of 1 hour sun-stays....It's not a self-tanner but you do have to put it on like one (i.e. wash your hands after you apply it and be careful around the knees, knuckles, etc....it has a bit of iodine in it but coffee from Maui is the ingredient that seems to make the difference.

Try Mystic Tan! It is a spray on tanner they do in a tanning salon.

If you need a quick tan, spray tans from the tanning salon are great, but don't seem to last very long even with exfoliating before and maintaining with good lotion. I really like this gradual tanning lotion called Malibu. They have it at Walmart and its about $5-$6. It smells good and doesn't stain your clothes. It leaves a very natural looking tan after a few uses and is easy to maintain once you get the color you want by using it every few days. I also think the Jergens Natural Glow lotion works well, but personally I do not like the smell of it.

I just love Jergens Natural Glow. It give a natural look. I am pale and have searched online for some good self tanner reviews and found that this one had great reviews. After trying it, I didn't notice a tan till after the third day and it looked like a natural tan as if u were to lay out in the sun. It is gradual so when u achieve the tan u want then u can stop and start whenever you want. It didn't give me a orange color either. And the smell well....I kind of don't notice smells so my suggestion to you is to go to the store and find this product and flip the cap and see if it gives a scent that makes you cringe or makes you wanna try it. Good Luck!

Howdy! I've used so many ... My favs are when I'm on a budget coppertone airbrush self tanner walmart or for daily use jergens glow I hink someone mentioned that and it's good with a skin firmer or for like $25 lancome flash bronzer... They will all wash off because ur skin is steadily sloughing off dead skin cells, to help prolong he life of ur tan exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate all over!! Hope u love it/them ... I'm too pale I need to tan as well... Tanned fat looks better than white fat heehee!! Peace and love!

Look at the Arbonne self-tanner. You can get a sample from a distributor, not me (email me and I'll send you her info as she's seen great results from it, after past years of skin cancer issues). Our skin is very important to protect and I know Arbonne ingredients won't harm you like 99% of the other brands will. (Oh, also, the Arbonne self-tanners are beautiful, healthy, and I'm sure the touch of scent wouldn't bother anyone.) Enjoy your summer!
