Bondi Sands Aero Aerated Self Tanning Foam - Ultra Dark, 225ml/200g

Firstly, I never write reviews really but this deserves one I've been a qualified spray tan technician for 12 years and I've always used Sienna which is the UKs number one. I literally have been spray tanning myself weekly for 12 years. I have tried every product on the market believe me. I'm trying to move away from spray tanning myself as it's a pain in the bum. I cannot recommend this tan enough. I'm so impressed with it. Its longevity, the ease of application, the colour.... I realise people are saying it goes on green but this is normal for a tan that is olive toned. It is far more natural and once you wash it off it looks amazing and it actually lasts! The alternative is a terracotta kind of tone which is far less natural and the fade offish very obvious. I honestly can't recommend this product enough For the record I am Irish and incredibly fair.

I’ve been using fake tan for twenty years but this is a game changer. Only need to use once a week and creates a deep flawless tan. Love

By far one of the worst fake tans iv ever used! It applies very patchy. Left in for 12 hours then washes off and you’re pale again. What a waste of time and money!

I normally use kids bondi sands dark foam tanner. . . So thought I would give this a try. I'm quite fair but this doesn't seem to be much different to the dark colour? I wanted to give this a go reading the reviews it seemed good and had a green base which would give a more olive colour than orange. . . It does go on well and you do have to work with it quickly as it's faster drying than others. Nice smell. But I don't really think it gives much more than just the normal dark shade sadly

love the mouse so easy to apply, lasts well and has a really nice color

Love this tan! I have really sensitive dry skin, this did not cling to dry patches or irritate my skin! It felt hydrating witch can be uncommon! It has a beautiful finish, great colour. Could be darker but then it does advise to add another layer for deeper tan. I will not be returning to my express tanning mousse as I’d rather use this aero tan which takes longer to develop but has better results!

I love and hate this product, because it stays on for 7 days and beyond. But if you’re a weekly routine tanner like me and need it scrubbed off ready for a fresh tan by day 6-7 good luck because it will not budge and it ends up coming off patchy! I think this tan would be good for people who only want to use it as a one off - for example on holiday, but deffo not if you tan every week religiously!

My go to for self tan, easy to apply, smells nice, lasts a good length of time

Creates a long lasting dark tan, easy to apply! I love it.

Update: 1. Applying a second layer 30 mins later does achieve a dark tan. 2. For me, it faded nicely except for on my wrists and toes. Nothing crazy and not a single person ever mentioned they noticed it. But I knew it was happening. Lol I had 2 patches on my thighs that held on to color but I also didnt exfoliate my thighs b4 I applied the product originally so that may be why that happened. 3. It does dry quickly but my skin felt a little tacky afterwards. I just applied Bondi Sands Pure Gradual tanner and I will say that it dried much quicker AND my skin feels so soft and moisturized. I decided to try the gradual tanner bc this product requires you to wear the product for 6 hrs. I need a tanner I can apply and then leave for work and not look like I'm turning into the hulk. Lol With that said, I get a way darker tan with this product vs the Pure Gradula Tanner. All in all, I still recommend this product. Overall, it does what it claims it will do. The color was beautiful. The fade, in general, was nice with minimal patching. 8/10 recommend it. .............................. I'm new to the self tanning world so I did a lot of research and watched a lot of reviews as well as a lot of tips and tricks to prevent streaking and patching. With that said, this being my first time using not only this product, but a self tanner in general, I AM AMAZED! I wore it for 3 hrs on my face and a full 18.5 hrs (while I was at work). Scent: Drfinitely coconut. After an hour, it smelled a little odd, but nothing horrendous. That faded after wearing it for about 3 hrs or so. Consistency: thin, foam, easy to apply... however it does dry rather quickly so I suggest working in small sections. Color: on application, it definitely, DEFINITELY has a green hue and you can definitely tell where you have put the product. That green hue faded over the first 4.5 hrs and I was able to go to work with it on. This product is supposed to be ultra dark. However, with one application, you probably wont get that deep, dark color that I know many girls like for the summer. But the product does say that if you want that deep dark color, you can apply a second coat after 30 mins of your first application. With that said, one application did achieve a beautiful, dark, sunkissed color to my skin. Transfer: it does transfer onto fabrics a little, but nothing so major that I was alarmed by it.

Absolutely in love with this self Tanner, same quality as Coco and Eve if not better, for half the price

Hands down my favourite self tanner. I’ve been using it for YEARS, when I give other/new brands a try I always go back to this.

i am (sort of) new to fake tan. i am 23 and used to use self tanner my freshman year of high school, so almost 10 years ago. it was patchy, orange and super hard to apply but man, i didn’t know self tanner advanced this much since then! i am armenian with VERY fair/light skin with pink undertones. my breaking point with tanning outdoors was getting all dressed up in a bikini, going to the pool to tan, only to leave in 20 minutes because i would burn and it would take all summer for me to get a slight tan just for it to fade in the winter. on top of that, i develop freckles, which everyone knows is the first sign that i could end up with skin cancer at some point in my life if i keep tanning outdoors. also, AGING lol! i thought about going back to self tan but i just didnt want to be orange and deal with streaks although i apply it perfectly(i was using jergens back then). let me tell you- i used bondi sands aero ultra dark with their mit. i showered, exfoliated with an exfoliating mit and sugar scrub, shaved and lotioned my dry spots (elbows, knees, ankles and neck) and waited about an hour for my pores to close to apply. i started with my inner arm working outwards to my elbow, did that side of my chest, shoulders and neck, switched to the other arm then did my shin area working up to my thighs and bun (so my stomach doesn’t crease on my thighs) and then did my fingers and toes with a tanning brush on amazon. it smells coconut and like i’m at a beach. i waited about 30 minutes to put clothes on(it was still a little tacky but ehh i didn’t care because it looked dry and felt like it was clinging to my skin) IT DOES APPLY GREEN- that’s because it develops with an olive undertone. the only thing with this tan is it isn’t the type of tan you can put on and walk outside with unless you don’t mind looking green haha. i just did it at 8 pm and washed it off 7 am when i woke up. i slept with silk PJS (long sleeve black ones from amazon) and man! i rinsed off this morning with lukewarm water and slightly BARELY glazing my hand over parts i tanned and IM LEFT WITH THE PERFECT, OLIVE TONE TAN!! i wish all of u amazon besties could see it in real life, it looks so damn good and darker in real life. it looks like i went tanning for a year straight. it looks so freakin natural!!! i am so excited. i have worn it for 6 days and since i’m so fair, it looks freshly applied and barely faded. i plan to reapply every week! it fades evenly and not patchy! just make sure you moisturize after your shower and in the morning. also, there were a couple spots i applied a little streaky (my fault because it was my first time in forever self tanning) and this tan is SO forgiving. when i showered, it all evened out and looks flawless. also, my boyfriend helped me with my back because i have a deeper arch in my back and a deep spine haha i tried to get it myself but was struggling. i am so happy i found something that works, now brb i gotta buy new makeup to match my tan lol!!
