Review: "Horrific is the only word that can describe what my legs looked like after using Tarte Sunburst Body Beaded Bronzing Lotion With Self tanner. The lotion had little beads of color in it that burst when you applied them. The beads burst all right; my legs looked like they were bleeding. I tried to rub it in, but after 10 minutes, I simply gave up and had to scrub it off. (Luckily, I forgot to exfoliate before applying so I had no permanent stains.) Initially the lotion seemed harmless, with no scent and a good consistency. I wasn't skeptical about the beads of color because the box clearly said that they would burst with pressure; I just had no idea how much pressure it took. Another reason the lotion looked shocking was because the pigment was too dark in contrast with my pale skin." -- Mary

I have tried the Jergen's gradual tan lotion before and it seems to work just fine on my skin. I definitely did not look orange at all. It was a nice, warm bronzed glow. It took 3 days of applying to see any results which was my only complaint but once that 3rd day rolled around, I saw a nice color on my skin!! I've also tried Sevin Nyne from Sephora. This was an aerosol spray tan that was a deep tan color once sprayed onto my skin. I think this spray worked awesome and I saw results as soon as I applied it!!!! It's a bit pricey but well worth the money if you're looking for instant tan results and no orange color.

I only tried one of these, it was by Lancome, and my skin looked absolutely ridiculous. I looked like an orange alien
