Bondi Sands GLO Matte One Day Tan

Best instant tan I’ve used! Was so sceptical about this as I HATE fake tan. However, since falling pregnant, I hate being pale even more 😂🙈 I usually have regular spray tan’s fortnightly as often as poss, but due to washing my hands and face a lot, I find that my spray tan comes off faster in those places. This is an amazing product for topping up in places I need. I was super shocked at the coverage as well!! It’s amazing and actually like a foundation for your skin! Makes mornings a lot faster as I only need to apply this. I’ve missed my usual tan this week which would usually be a huge pain! But knowing I have this to use on visible areas if I need to go out- makes life easier haha. A trick I’ve started to do for ease is to use my hands when doing my face, I put my moisturiser in all the places I usually would, add bits of tan to them same area then work them into the face together- outwards circular motions. It produces a lovely finish. I’ll use a make up brush around the hairline/ ears/ jawline and neck to blend out too. Another tip is to use a make up brush for application on the hands. I also make sure I put a little bit of moisturiser on them too (especially the dry areas) let dry, then work the tan into the hands and fingers/ in between. Wash your hands after but only applying soap to the palms to get rid of any build up on the hands from doing the face (or you can do this before you start on the hands) and it shouldn’t come off the tops too much at all as long as you pat dry the palms after 😃 Hope it helps someone as it took me a little while to get to grips with it being so intense (but in a good way!) Will definitely be using throughout and maybe even after my pregnancy- It’s become one of my make up bag essentials for that nice summer tan. The shimmer is good too, but defo not as much coverage and more subtle, with hints of a glow so you can pick which suits the look you’re going for 😊

Was actually pleasantly surprised by this. I’ve never really used instant tans as I always feel like I’m wearing make up that’s going to rub on anything I touch. I have always used self tans that wash off but due to having laser hair removal treatment I can’t use that currently, so decided to try this for odd occasions where I want to be a bit more tan. When you put it on its thick and brown and feels like you’re putting foundation on - but it totally dries and goes on really well! Would advise a good mitt - the bondi sands double sided one is perfect as it’s nice and soft. Smells good too, not like fake tan really. A little transfer onto sheets and clothes but to be expected and not as much as I’d thought. The matte finish is definitely my fave and think it’s the most natural!

This is excellent wash-off tan. No streaks, great colour, natural looking and doesn’t easily transfer to fabric. I have used a few different brands but they have always been a bit of an odd texture or streaky. I usually use a gradual fade tan but this is great for an instant fix. For 20 years I have used a very well-known make of gradual fade tan, but I have been so impressed with this that I am going to try the Bondi one.

This is great as either an instant tan or putting on top of fake tan for a night out for a more bronzed look! It goes on really orange but then it does turn a nice brown. This always saves me with last minute plans, and having to put it on because I’ve decided to go out that night. I do sometimes put this on my face UNDERNEATH my foundation, but trust me when I say a little goes a LONG way & it makes your face ORANGE. But, if you put foundation over and blend and also concealer and bronzer then it does give a nice bronze. It can be hit and miss with the face though, so usually I just put a self tan on my face and then foundation etc & then it develops throughout the night giving a nice bronzed look.. no hit and miss lol.

I love this self tan.Its so easy to apply no streaks, looks great and for a 1 day tan it stays put until you shower it off with soap and water.Really only purchased for my legs after reading recommendations decided to try Bondi sands 1 day as i have used Bondi sands tanning mousse before and found it easy to use.This one day tan is ideal for weddings, nights out or celebrations where you dress nice and like to look your best.

Just tested this out and omg this stuff is amazing! The scent and colour is very good! Goes on very easily. I’m am very pale and its such a nice colour. I also suffer from psoriasis on my arms and legs and it doesn’t clump around it like some do (as long as it’s not mega dry) I’ve attached a little picture to show the colour against my skin tone

Love that it doesn’t have a scent and a little goes a long way, and dries quickly (I used tanologist body buffer brush). However, it is not water resistant and went patchy after a little rain hit my skin. For the price and the purpose though, I’d use again.

I am fed up of the tan on ny face fading and looking odd, if i dont want to wear makeup,, or my inner elbows and behind the knees always seems to wear away. I was super skeptical so as soon as it was delivered i rubbed it on my inner elbow and it dried super fast. It wasnt remotely sticky at all or tacky. As the day went on i expected it to wear away but it didn't. I rubbed it and it didnt come off. I am amazed. It didnt come off with water, or sweat after a workout. It only came off scrubbing with soap and water in the shower. So when your tan is looking iffy or you dont want the commitment of properly fake tanning this is a godsend. I love bondi sands and this is another exceptional product from them.
