Coconut Dream Ultra Dark Tanning with Clear Bronzers, 8 oz.

Smells great gives a beautiful tan

I love this product I have been using it for years. It's great and it smells fabulous.

I wasn't sure how well this would work considering the price. I bought this for my husband, who has psoriasis/very sensitive skin and Spicy Chocolate (twice as expensive) with black bronzers and tingle for me. I must say, Coconut dream blew Spicy Choc (from Brown Sugar) & Red Hot (from TanPro) out of the water. I don't have sensitive skin, so I usually like a tingle, but coconut dream gave me the best color despite not having a tingle. And I'm very happy with the clear bronzer formula. I had never used a product with CB before and I love that my color was very even, not blotchy, and brown, not red/burnt. And it smells good even after you tan! No burnt smell. I highly recommend this product.Note: I tan very easily and can get very dark in the sun or a sunbed. However, in a bed, it tends to take me a while to get an initial tan. I just started tanning again this past week in a cheap, level 1 bed, and i already have an excellent base tan. This NEVER happens!! I wish I could return my expensive lotion. I'll be stealing this from my husband for sure, lol!This one far surpasses the others if you want:- A good base tan without orange streaks- No blotchiness or itchiness- No redness/burning of skin- A great cocunut moisturizer leaving skin feeling soft, nourished and clean- Doesn't leave you smelling like your flesh caught on fire!Ps I paid full price for this product. I'm getting nothing in exchange for this review. I rely on customer reviews when I'm looking to purchase items, so I try to do the same for others. This is 100% my opinion.

I'm not sure how I feel about this product, although everyone always comments on how tan I look after using it, so i guess it's doing it's main job. But I'm not sure if that's a temporary typical coloring because I don't feel like it makes me darker for longer (ie actually intensifying how much I get tan).A lot of reviewers commented on how liquidy it is. I have the opposite experience, it comes out so thick I have to use a LOT if it to cover myself. So I don't feel like it's going to be great value. However unlike other reviewers mine is at least full of product and not air.The scent is meh.. I was expecting tropical delight and I find it to be mild.It's not oily feeling going on, but I do feel a little oily after the tan session.It's a light beige color coming out of the bottle.Just not quite feeling thrilled or like I would recommend it.

This lotion is okay, but nothing special. I was a bit apprehensive upon ordering it that I would get a watery bottle, as many other reviewers have claimed, but that was not the case. This lotion is not as thick as many others in a squeeze tube (e.g. Fig Get Me Not), but it was comparable in texture (not quality!) to JWOWW One and Done. I suspect the issue many reviewers had was the bottle got left outside or in their mailbox on a hot day. Or the bottle could've been exposed to heat before it was delivered. Leaving a bottle of tanning lotion in the heat is a sure-fire way to get the watery lotion they described. However, I did not personally have that issue with this bottle (I ordered it in winter).The biggest issue I have with this lotion is the smell. In my opinion, it doesn't really smell like coconuts, as the name would imply. It has a light vaguely coconut smell, but it doesn't at all cover the dreaded "tanning smell." In fact, I think it makes the tanning smell worse because it REEKS of DHA. The good part about this is that it means the "white bronzer" claim is true - the lotion is lighter in color than most bronzers (off white), but since it smells SO STRONGLY of DHA, I know it does have bronzers in it. If you use this lotion you'll probably want to do it at the end of your day when you can go home and steep in fake/spray tan scent. You won't want to shower straight away, or there's no point in using a bronzer. However, I personally don't want to go out smelling like a VersaSpa, so I only use this lotion when I know I can go straight home and chill for a couple of hours. The bonus is my white sheets, shorts, etc. don't get irreversibly stained, as happened when I used JWOWW and Designer Skin bronzers.At this point, I'm not sure if I'll repurchase. I like having the white bronzer, and you definitely can't beat the price. However, I just really hate the smell.
