I loved this fake tan. I was a little concerned when I saw the colour come out of the bottle, but the tint really helped me apply the tanning lotion so I could apply it more evenly and without streaks. The resulting fake tan was a lovely subtle colour (which could be made darker with subsequent applications. It was also a smooth, easy to apply and readily absorbed consistency.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the scent, although the product says fragrance free it does have a slight smell, like moisturiser, perhaps the cocoa butter & honey. It was very light which is great because I often get migraines from really strong scents, especially those that you get from other fake tanning lotions.
I really liked this product and the generous sample will allow me to use it throughout winter, which is great.
I would recommend this to others.

Initially I thought this self tanning lotion would be like the others….,fake. But it wasn’t, after using it on my legs which by the way are pretty pale I was left with a beautiful rich, brown, natural looking tan that lasted around 6 days. There was no bad smell or any horrible orangie marks to be seen. If anyone is looking for a sexy tan throughout winter without forking out big dollars in expensive tanning salons then they should really get some sense and use Sun Sense Self Tan !!! I would definately recommend this product to ANYONE..

I liked the feel of the lotion & the fact it is tinted so you can see where you have already applied it. It dried quickly & a nice even colour. Pleasant smell not like some self tan lotions. I was a little worried about my sensitive skin however I had no allergic reaction at all. Would definately use this product again & recommend it to friends.

I have never used a fake tan before so it’s fair to say that I was a little nervous when I first tried this out! Thankfully, this product is pretty much foolproof. It says it is fragrance-free so no nasty fake tan smell, but it does have a subtle cocoa butter scent. It has a gel like consistency which is super easy to apply and the tint of the lotion allows you to see where you have been and (more importantly) where you have missed!
The self tan didn’t stain my hands, clothes, or anything else and by morning I had a lovely natural looking tint which lasted for 5 days. I have quite sensitive skin and suffer from eczema, but I had no reaction from this product.
I am very impressed with this product and will definitely continue to use it.

I don’t normally like fake tan but I will use this one again. It went on evenly and the colour is subtle. I have sensitive skin and it didn’t irritate, I’ll recommend it to my friends for sure.

The tan is great because of the dark colour so you can see where your going with it its pleasant on the nose and worked within the hour for a tan that didnt look like it came from a bottle ( my partner said it looked real so the proof is there)
thank you so much for letting me trial this product and i will be recommending sunsence tan to all my friends and colleges x

Im really impressed with the SunSense Self Tan.
Applying the lotion is was easy as you could see where it was going, and it felt so soft. Even after 24 hours my skin is still feeling silky and moisturised.
The colour came out perfect, not yellow like alot of other self tanning products.
I will definitly be using this product again.

I have been using the tan lotion and haven’t had any reactions or anything. I have found it tans really well and I like he colour it comes into.
Hasn’t marked my clothes either like previous ones have. And the smell is fine also. Its great that you can put as many layers on with out overdoing it and to the colour you want to be, and also very moisturising.
Recommend it for sure.
Thanks for the trial.

I have never used a tanning product so this was my first time. I was very inpressed at how easy it was too use. I was worried as I have fair skin at how ‘natural’ it would like but it was great and not to dark. I liked how you can control how dark a tan you would like to get gradually. The application was easier than I thought and it was a pleasant smell as well. I would definitly recommend this product.

Never used a fake tan before, long lasting and moisturising, great substitute for the real thing

It is an excellent product & I will purchase the product.
It works really well.

This is the first tinted fake tan I’ve used, so I was surprised at how moisturising it was! My skin felt nourished by it, and the chocolatey smell was perfect and not too strong. It helped to get rid of the ‘fake tan’ smell that is so common-win!I found that though had my doubts on the merit of tinted fake tan, it really did help in application. I found that even on my fair skin I needed two consecutive applications for the bronze to really come thru, and I love that because there is less chance of turning into a tandoori chicken if the tan is thin layers=) When I put it on I could immediately see the streaks that I had to work harder on, which was perfect because I then knew my tan would be streak free. This dried really quickly though the tube itself led me to believe otherwise, and so I was free to get dressed and go about my business without a thought.
This is an absolute winner of a fake tan, and I will be recommending it to my family and friends, and reviewing it again on my blog.
Thanks Ego and Sunsense!!

I am not usually a fan of at home tans. This might just change my mind.
During the first application I went quite dark instantly, although I was able to rub it in to the colour consistently I liked. Another plus was it was easy to wash off my hands, usually at home tans stain my hand with an awlful orange colour- this didn’t happen with SunSense, warm water and the stain was gone.

This was easy to apply and left a nice nonfakelooking tan. I applied again after 24 hours and it lasted well even after showers. Will definitely use this product on a regular basis

I really like this product. I usually use spray on tans but this one is easy to apply and you look tanned immediately. It smells nice too which is rare with fake tans. The only thing I would say is it is quite dark (which I loved personally) but maybe not too great for someone with very pale skin.

I got a bad allergic reaction but it does tan very well! Ur brown even when wash it all off with a sponge! Best ever! Pitty I got the reaction otherwise I’d become a long time user
