- + Lux Unfiltered N°32 Deep Gradual Self Tanner, Hydrating Self Tanning Lotion with Shea Butter & Squalane - Non-Sticky, No Transfer, Natural-Looking Tan - Vegan & Cruelty-Free Sunless Tanner - Santal

I do not tan a warm color, more of a cool beige. Most self tanners seem to look great on places I am already tan, and jaundiced on places I am not. I don't know what is different about this one but on my skin it is a slightly cooler tone that does not make me look like I have liver problems, and I do not think I'll ever buy a different brand again. The smell is OK, and it's a gentle formula so easy to use, just exfoliate first, it's not a dramatic self tanner but a buildable one so goes on pretty evenly and dries quickly enough.

Love this product so much! I am a natural, VERY fair redhead and I have tried numerous self tanners, most of which leave me with an orangey color or with a terrible/super noticeable scent. This product has a decent smell and the best part is it doesn't look like tanner at all, just me with a natural sunkissed glow. I personally like the deep version the best to achieve this. Disclaimer, the product does go on clear which can be a deterrent to some, but I promise if you follow the directions, lotion your more susceptible areas, ie wrists, elbows, knees, etc. you will get such a gorgeous effortless looking color! I have other lux unfiltered products and they are all 10/10. You definitely get what you pay for with this brand and it is very apparent that they care about producing the best, highest quality products possible.

I've been using self tanner for as long as I can remember. This one has such a nice buildable, gradual tan, yet the color does show up pretty quickly in comparison to some other brands. It smells amazing...no "tanner" smell. It leaves your skin feeling nourished and moisturized without a heavy or sticky feeling. You can get dressed pretty quickly after applying. A little more pricey, but a little goes a long way, so for me it's worth it. I will definitely buy again and again!

Got this after seeing someone I watch on YouTube recommend this for scent and gradual tan that’s not over the top. I do really like this. Initially it seemed quite orange on me (maybe it’s supposed to be bronze-like, but for my neutral Asian skin tone, was used to more brown-ish neutral type tan that I used to have when I could naturally tan. But after the first day or so, it does settle down and definitely looks more natural. Love the rosewood scent so I’m glad I went with that as I know I can’t stand earthy/manlike scents like santal. It doesn’t initially have the tanning lotion smell until later when the rosewood scent dies down the next day. But nothing too bad, I’ve had worse. I feel it does dry down reasonably quick for me, but I give it a good 20-30 min doing nighttime routine just in case to give it time to dry. My skin is so smooth and decently moisturized, but I also don’t normally use lotion on my body, so my legs/feet respond quickly to this lotion for sure. For ease of use and scent, I do really like it. I’d definitely consider repurchasing.

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 know this review will hold little weight bc I didn’t include photos—which I would’ve if I had a moment to write this review sooner—but this tanning lotion SUCKS. I’ve tried many. I applied this with my mitt and even though the directions don’t require, I always opt for the mitt bc when I do it with my hands it’s streaky. The lotion took forever to dry. Once it did, it transferred to my towel— which wasn’t too bad, but the weird thing is is the smell was left behind on everything I wore and my sheets in the few days after. The next day I noticed that my feet were all blotchy, there was a huge weird mark on my thoughts, and the crevices behind my ankles were splotchy. The smell was really the worst part of it all, tbh. I’ve had better experiences with $5 tanning lotions. Don’t waste your money! Idk what the other people with the good reviews are doing differently, but I’m not a newbie and I hate this!!!

I’ve definitely used better. A few positives - it goes on smooth and is easy to rub in. I also enjoy the smell. The negatives however definitely outweigh any positives. I got the deep color and find myself having to use it 2-3 days in a row to get some color, and it isn’t a deep one. It washes off and fades quickly even using those 2-3 days in a row. It has almost zero staying power. Not worth it IMO.

Finally found my go to! So much easier than tanning with a glove and foam. Love the results and so so easy!
