Gorgeous color, BEST self tanner
PostedAugust 27, 2010
Prosmoisturizing, natural-looking, easy to use
I love a dark, natural tan from the sun but since I don't want skin cancer or too many wrinkles, I have traded my sun tan lotion for sunscreen and the sun for self tanner. In the past, I have been using the St. Tropez lotion which works great. However, after seeing Xen-Tan in a magazine and reading reviews online, I decided to give it a try.
I applied it last night and was very pleasantly surprised with the initial delicious vanilla scent. I did not smell the DHA at all. It was also very moisturizing and not sticky AT ALL. St. Tropez definitely has a somewhat unpleasant odor to it and it is very sticky and I feel gross with it on which makes it impossible to sleep in. With Xen-Tan, I felt like I had nothing on and I could easily sleep in it. I was a little thrown off as it didn't seem as dark as St. Tropez when I first applied it. Then, I looked at the bottle and it said it is "time-released" so I climbed into bed and couldn't wait until morning.
My tan the next morning was deep, dark and natural! I was so happy! I got in the shower and the majority of the tan didn't wash off in the shower which happens with St. Tropez! I am so happy with this product... from the initial application to the end result! I would definitely buy it. I am not sure how long the tan lasts since I've only had it on for about 12 hours but since the application is so easy, I don't think I'll mind it if doesn't last extremely long. I know its expensive, but its well worth it... not only because its a fabulous product but because its saving your skin and your health! :)

This self tanner works great! It gives you a dark, even tan without the overpowering DHA smell because it has a vanilla scent that does a pretty good job at covering it up. As long as you exfoliate and are careful with the application,(taking the time to be sure you haven't missed an area) you will have a dark, olive colored tan. I did miss a spot on my arm the first time I used it. I went over the streak the next day and within hours it blended in and the streak was gone so even if you make a mistake, it's fixable. I'm fair skinned and it gives me great, naturally dark looking color. I will buy this again.

I've used them all and Xen Tan is one of my favorites. Smells like vanilla-I actually get compliments on it. I've purchased this twice, it's one of the best.

Best self tanner ever

I use self tanners for over 5 years and I'm an expert living in Florida tan is a year round look, I have try them all by now. Dark Absolute Luxe is the best self tanner in the market worth every penny, a little go a long way, dry fast I use it in the morning and continue with my day finally NO SELF_TANNING ODOR YEAHHH!!!, perfectly even in elbows, feet, knees and hands the color is golden brown natural looking even on my pale skin also great for my face is the best tan I ever had. With only one application I get all the color I need and it last a little over a week before I need to apply it again (not like other self tanners need to be apply 2-3 times a week to get the same results). Just exfoliate before and apply a tittle extra on top of the hands after you wash them to be even with your arms. I am getting complements on my tan no one knows is self tanner...
