Bondi Sands Technocolor 1 Hour Express Self Tanning Foam, Innovative Formula, Hydrates for Natural Enhanced Skin Results, Available in 4 Shades

I've been using St. Tropez Express tan for years, but I recently tried this and it blew my mind. I'm extremely pale with ZERO yellow/warm undertones in my skin. I'm one of those people who burns after being in the sun for five minutes, and year-round I either look transparent-white or pale pink depending on how irritated my skin is (I have rosacea). I'm not one of those people who claims to have fair skin but actually wears a neutral or warm foundation shade. I'm genuinely EXTREMELY fair, like "the lightest shade of foundation still looks orange/yellow on me" fair -- so I know what I'm talking about when I say this tanner is actually pretty cool toned... more than anything I've tried yet, at least.Of course there's still some golden tones , but it's mainly a dark pinky beige when it fully develops. For girlies who actually have fair cool-toned or pink skin, you'll know how rare this is. It's almost impossible to find any complexion product that doesn't pull orange, but the first time I had this on after it fully developed I felt like it mimicked what I would look like if I could actually -theoretically- get a natural tan -- dark pinky beige with just a hint of warmth. I knew it was promising when it literally came out of the bottle looking INDIGO GREY. Real ones know the excitement of finding a true grey-toned product....As far as performance goes, I personally think it's hard to fairly judge self tanners because a lot of it comes down to user error. Even people who have been tanning for years can do a lazy job exfoliating and their tan will turn out blotchy and come off in 5 days. That being said, there was a NOTICEABLE difference in how quickly and evenly this faded on me. The St. Tropez tanner used to come off SO bad in the creases of my elbows and knees after about a week, and I'd have these huge awkward white spots where you could clearly see where the tan had rubbed off. Well... not with this one!! Again, idk how much of that was down to my skin prep, but I'm on my second application of this product and I still haven't seen any rubbing off on those high-friction/sweat areas (I live in Texas, so YES this is thoroughly sweat tested).I can't guarantee that this product will work this well for everyone, but for the true fair/cool toned girls out there I think you have a way better chance of success with this than with other more "universal" self tan shades. Everyone has different preferences so this might STILL look a tiny bit too golden for your taste if you're as pale as I am, but this is definitely the least orange-toned self-tan product I've ever used. Never going back to St. Tropez lol. And this is cheaper too!

This tanning foam is everything I wanted and more. The magenta undertone gives such a rich, deep tone that looks natural and glowy—not orange or patchy at all. It develops beautifully in just one hour, but I’ve also left it on longer for a deeper result and had no issues.What I really love is how hydrating the formula feels—it doesn’t dry out my skin like other express tans. The foam goes on smoothly, blends easily, and doesn’t cling to dry spots. The color payoff is even and lasts several days without looking dull. It’s become my go-to for last-minute events or vacation prep. Total game changer!

🤯 I am about as white as a sheet of paper and translucent to boot. I have very pink undertones and I’ve tried multiple self tanning products in the past. The color has always been “off”. They look green , they look like I took a dirt bath, and they are splotchy. I was really excited to hear about this tanner but still skeptical. I tried one swatch on my upper leg and holy cow! If you are someone who easily tans , if you are someone with olive or golden undertones ….. this will probably not work as well for you. But for the girls with super pale skin who look like peppa pig if you get too hot , this is it!!! My skin is super sensitive (hence the red dots from shaving). No irritation from it at all. I ordered the face tanner too , but I haven’t tried it yet.

I’m violently Caucasian to the point of being almost translucent with cool undertones. I’ve tried so many self tanners over the years and usually end up orange. Even the violet based ones usually end up making me look orange or they just don’t work. I bought this on a whim and received it today and am absolutely blown away with the results. I was a bit thrown off by the bottle because it said to twist and I did and then the top came off and now there’s some tan juice on my bathroom floor BUT besides that, this tan is so so good. It goes on smooth, dries down almost immediately so make sure you work fast, isn’t sticky, and somehow blends seamlessly into the places you aren’t tanning so you don’t get those intense lines. I don’t love to tan my feet and hands so when I’m done with my body I use whatever’s left over on the mitt to lightly go over them and after waiting for 2ish hours and rinsing, everything blends. No streaks, no harsh lines, and the blue undertone matches my skin tone so well it looks exactly the way I look when I get a real tan. I saw some reviews that said it’s not very dark which is true but honestly I just want to glow.. not change my ethnicity via self tan. If you’re the color of printer paper naturally, a subtle glow is really all you need. Overall I’m extremely pleased with this product and will update on it’s longevity, how it holds up with working out and sweaty summer heat and if it layers okay. I’m hoping I’ll only need to use it once a week but I can’t form any opinions on that until some time has passed.

So I can’t say I don’t love the color, it’s great for my skin tone. It only gets two stars, the photo above shows the product, a paper towel I had to use to wipe it down and the carpet in my bedroom it leaked all over. I had to wipe off the bottle four separate times, it doesn’t just leak from the nozzle, but also the top cap. I didn’t realize this until I looked down and saw my destroyed carpet(where the Bobby pin is) I will now have to rent a cleaner for. I’m probably going back to Coco and Eve after this. If it was a little leak, no biggie but this thing DUMPED product

If you’ve got a fair complexion, this is the self tanner for you. It goes on pretty dark so don’t be worried. It does not transfer after you rinse off! I have white sheets and wake up with no problems. I’ve never had issues with this. It lasts a good week and a half if you don’t exfoliate in the shower too much. Doesn’t get patchy. It does smell. I’ve never had a tanner that doesn’t though so idk what to tell you there. It’s not a bad smell. Easily covered up with lotion and/or perfume.
