Australian Gold Sinfully Black 15x Deep Dark Bronzing Tanning Lotion, 8.5 Ounce

Works great

So far I'm getting a nice base. Decent smelling lotion.

Many years ago, I was a lifeguard, and spent probably 50-60 hours a week in the sun... Using this lotion for three, 10-min sessions (4-days apart) and I'm almost as dark as I was back then. The color is a nice bronze, not orange or fake looking... it brings out the natural tones of your body's tan, and keeps it there. I've not been to the tanning bed in nearly a week, and the color has faded only slightly.The lotion is a bit thick, but spreads evenly and easily, and soaks into the skin quickly - should apply it at least 10 min before tanning, but could be applied much earlier, or at the last minute, too. The lotion also has excellent skin conditioners and moisturizers, as my skin is probably the softest it's ever been in my life. The fragrance is a bit fruity (berries), but not overpowering, and it does not fade to the burnt orange smell you get with some of the higher-priced lotions. It's not bad for a man, but probably better suited for the ladies (fragrance-wise).I do recommend that you do not wash this off (take a shower) for at least 4 hours after tanning, as it continues to work for several hours after your session. I also recommend that you use a good lotion after your shower to maintain the health of your skin (and the glow of your tan).I've tried many MUCH higher priced bronzers that don't come close to the efficiency of this one. The cost is perfect, and it just works well!

This stuff works well ! I got the best tan ever from this tanning lotion. It goes on kinda thick so doesn't go a long ways!

You can’t get any better than this brand. This is the more conservative version at 15x compared to a 40x my wife had bought years ago, but it still showed results in one tanning session and in 4 she had a pretty nice tan before vacay. (Always depends on how light/dark you already are though, so remember that)

the smell is the best part of this tanning lotion. I don't like the feel of it and how it goes on and the results were not as good as others i've used. I still prefer "somewhere on a beach" for lotions in this same price range. I'll finish the bottle because I have it, but I likely will not order again.

This broke my "Tanning Barrier" is what I like to call it. Like you use your normal lotion and it feels like you aren't getting any darker. But this one seemed to give me the boost I was looking for. It spreads easier, and the scent is not that overwhelming coconut smell that majority of lotions have.

The thing I've read most in reviews about Australian Gold tanning lotions is how thin they are; making them go on easier. Now I finally understand. Its not thin as in watery, it just smooths out easier than most lotions I've used. I used it the first time today, and the odor going on and after tanning is probably the best I've ever smelled. It had a fruity scent applying, but after getting out of the bed I barely noticed the odor at all. When I got home, I applied some Playboy Vegas cologne to my clothes (not on my skin to avoid thinning out the bronzers in the lotion,) and I can't smell the lotion at all anymore. On top of that, I'm used to feeling at least a little greasy using any lotion (including Designer Skin lotions,) but I don't feel greasy at all after using this. The only drawback to this lotion is that it comes in 8.5oz instead of 13.5oz, but considering the price it doesn't phase me at all. Another tip for those who are serious about tanning and buy a lot of different lotions; I purchased this through Tan 4 Less, and they charge something like 6 or 7 dollars for shipping, but if you add a lotion to your order from them, they only add a dollar per item, so they are like a true wholesaler. I got this, and 2 different bottles of Designer Skin lotions for a total of $54, and that price included shipping. I would have spent around $140 in my salon for the lotions I purchased. Props to Tan 4 Less.
