Tan Physics

I really like this product. I've been a Fake Bake locked-in user for years. I tried Tan Physics for the first time last night. Little smell, definitely not offensive like some have. I showered this morning and the color left after was very natural. No streaking and even color where applied. Next time I will be sure to apply lotion to the top of my feet, ankles, tops of hands and elbows before applying Tan Physics. It didn't stain my sheets nor leave any odor.

I've read so many negative reviews, I'm shocked I even ordered. But I am glad I did. It is on the pricey side compared to my favorite Fake Bake, but you don't need to apply much. I do like the fact you can reapply for a darker desired tan. My skin felt hydrated and looked as if I applied a moisturizer to my skin. I will be buying this product again. I do not understand all the negative reviews; it is very puzzling to me. I've been fake tanning for years and Tan Physics is at the top next to my favorite Fake Bake.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have been using this product for several years. It works very well. It only has a slight smell. When applied correctly it does not streak. Take your time and apply in a circular motion. The only downside is when I purchased it there was no moisturizer in it. They may have improved that by now. I would just moisturize afterwards. Also, I would avoid wearing white as it will come off onto the inside of your clothing. Same thing with white sheets. I'm of the age where I do not lay in the sun so this is a lifesaver for me. The color is realistic and it works much faster than other self-tanners. I don't know what I'd do without it.

First, I watched pretty much every video available on the internet about tanners and how to apply. It appears this stuff and "Loving Tan" are really great. And I want to point out, everyone's sense of smell and body's reaction will be different - so the point is, try different stuff till you find what works for you.

Okay, now to application. You get TWO VERY DIFFERENT results based upon application. I exfoliated as instructed for all tanners, and applied. If you use a typical tanner mitt/glove, the results are more subdued and a slight "sun-kissed" look. If you use the "velvet" type finger glove or a full "velvet" glove, be prepared, you are getting dark. I think the difference is the amount of tanner applied to the skin directly. The normal mitt will absorb a lot more of the tanner. When I used the "velvet" glove, man I was dark and dark for like 4 good days. I showered every day and the tan was great. Didn't do any crazy routine to maintain. I'm pale and tan for beach trips. I would recommend this product.

Length of Use: 1–2 years

I am guessing by mixed reviews, some people's bodies react differently. I did my 1st application as a massage from my husband, so when I turned over on my blanket I had some areas rub off (my fault). Also highly recommend some plastic gloves because it does stain the palms. The next day I had the most gorgeous glowing tan. It was obvious where it wiped off or where we missed a spot but I had NOT exfoliated and didn't apply it standing up like I SHOULD have. I do suggest putting some lotion on your toenail near the cuticles and it did absorb around the edges of the nails. I am SUPER excited to apply it the proper way, exfoliating first, standing and having a partner make sure all areas are covered. Only needs to be put on sparingly. I did not find any bad smell that people in some reviews have said, but maybe that's body chemistry?

I really should be giving this product a "5" but wanted to draw attention to the review with a 4 so that it would be read for the suggestions. I am looking forward to using it again and have had skin cancer in the past, so really happy to have found such a great product!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

I was so excited to receive my products today and can't wait to try it. BUT I am missing one bottle of Tan Physics true color. I have received the Exfoliant and the Tan Extender so I guess I will write a review once I can try the product.

HighYa reviewed the Tan Physics and said she used her bare hands and it did not color her hands after application. I applied it the same way and washed hands soon after and it did stain my hands.

Also, HighYa said it does not smell, after application. For me, the smell got more intense as the hours went by. Not a pleasant smell like what was in the bottle before application.

Lastly, HighYa said it wouldn't rub on clothes, but three hours later, I rubbed a white towel over my arm and it rubbed off, I did put lotion on before application.

Plus the tan it gave for me was more intense than the subtle tan that HighYa gave in her review after one application.

It is highly priced and not sure, if there is a cheaper, less chemical, self-tanner out there but worth your time to research and see.

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.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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/

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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.
