Summary
Tan Physics' range of self-tanning products claims to give you a vacation-worthy glow without the risk of skin damage. These products seem to contain safe, effective ingredients, but the resulting tan might be more subtle and short-lived than you want.

I was sold on the "no streaks" and "even tan color" so I spent over $100 for the exfoliations step and the tanning step. I used this product ONCE. I did the exfoliation step then applied. I have streaks and blotches that others have mistaken for "healing bruises," asking me what happened. When I explained that I tried this product they understood. I am very disappointed.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

My order never arrived and I have been unable to track it. The last available tracking showed it had arrived into New Zealand, then nothing more. I have no idea how to get my money back or who to complain to! Definitely a scam!

The lotion does everything it states it won't...smells of copper after about 40 minutes after applying, leaves orange streaks. Would never pay this again as what I've bought at local drug stores for under $15.00 does as well if not better as you can pick your light, medium, or dark tan. Not happy with this product for what it cost at all!

This product is misleading. I have very fair skin, I have put it on 10 times today and it can’t even be noticed, not one person has said anything. It is way too light, there needs to be different levels or colors.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It is the most awful stuff I have ever used and I have used them all. I followed it step by step and I woke up orange. My feet are the worse. Now I want that money-back guarantee and I will send your product back so you can put the money back on my card.

It DID streak, and the color was not natural looking but orange. When I didn't use it all up I tried it half a year later and it turned my skin sky blue! I ended up liking the sky blue better than the "tan" and used it as an eye shadow that lasted about a week for each application.
Length of Use: 1–2 years

I have read all the reviews from real people as well as all the reviews on the web-page... I too was not satisfied with any of the three products that I purchased.. I followed the instructions to the T and did not see the results as promised. Although I have found that using rubber gloves helps with the orange hands. I still did not like the results of the products. I kept applying like it says and did not color my legs in the least. I was very disappointed and I still have a lot of product left and want to return all three bottles.

I personally don't really have any issues with this product other than you must wash your hands immediately after use or you're stuck with dark palms and weird half and half coloring through your fingers. I saw my tan within 3 hours from my first time. I have a nice glow and skin is soft.
I only bought the tanning bottles, 5 to be exact, pretty silly of me. Try to put less on the face and really work it in carefully.

Tan Physics did not perform the way they hyped it up to be. We used it and did not shower for two days and when we did it washed off and left my skin with blotches.
It does not live up to its hype. Too bad because it smells real nice and dried fast but it did not moisturize your skin like they say it does/

It smells nice, feels good on the skin. The color fades very quickly if you don't use it everyday. I bought the extender, that's a waste of money. You do have to wash your hands right away after, I wash them with a sugar rub and I don't have any issues. If you use it more than three days in a row it does become more orange in color. I was hoping it would give you a nice brown base, but it really doesn't. And if you have freckles or dark spots it accentuates them. Wish it was more of a brown even color and it can streak if you don't apply it evenly.

I bought this product mainly because it claimed to not smell bad like ALL self-tanning products do.
It does! It smells just as bad as all the rest of them do, so bad that it kept me away all night. Fortunately, I only bought one bottle.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
