Tan Towel Self Tan Towelette Classic 10 Count

I recently stopped using Tanning Beds after developing some skin issues, and after many years of summer tanning outdoors while boating, etc. I have tried many self-tanning products in the past, ranging from drug store shelf products to very expensive department store cosmetic products. I also tried the spray tan @ Tanning salon, but all those tanning alternatives had one thing in common...that pungent odor, I am told comes from the bronzing agent. Some of them streaked too. If the results from those products looked good, my skin did not smell good. My Dermatologist gave me a couple of packets of "Tan Towels" to try. I found them to be basically odorless, what scent they have is pleasant, and they actually work. I noticed some tanning right after using them, they don't streak, & tan is uniform all over body where applied. If used following the directions and a couple of times a week, the tan lasts pretty long, and does not seem to rub off on clothing when allowed to dry completely before dressing. The Plus side of this product...Pleasant scent (no bad odor) noticeable, natural looking tan, easy to use (just be sure to wash hands after using). Only negative...size of Towelettes (small, takes two for entire body per application) and they are pricey, considering how many you have to use with each application to achieve desired results. I did save $ by ordering from Amazon as opposed to ordering from manufacturers website. Have not found them in any stores such as Wal-Mart, Walgreens, etc. Can probably be purchased @ many Dermatologists offices as well. All in all, an excellent product I recommend & plan to continue using! Read more

I LOVE these! SO much! I have VERY porcelain skin, as you can see above (ignore that weird photos, they show the biggest difference in skin color) lol these towelettes are seriously amazing! It applies FLAWLESSLY! And I use it on my entire body with zero issues. It works within minutes so you can quickly use it before going out of necessary. I also like that it fades well too- not blotchy. I love that it's not too dark for my super light skin tone- I am not seeking to look like a tahitian beauty, just for a little more tint to my tone. This isn't super orangy, and it doesn't make you break out or anything either. I love pairing it with tanning water for a bit of a darker tone if desired, without needing to apply the towelettes too often. Will use these forever! So quick and easy and can put on clothes as soon as it dries- so much faster than the lotions and mousse tanners. Plus you can moisturize immediately before or after and it still applies without steaks or spots ❤️❤️ Read more

I have tried almost every self tanner product on the market today. But when I tried the "Tan Towel" I knew that I had found the perfect fit. I've never once had any kind of blotching, streaking or that obvious orange color that self tanners often have. The towelettes are so easy to apply and you really can't mess the application up. You just simply drag the towelette over any part of your body that you want tanned and let it dry for awhile. Within a few hours, the beautiful color will begin to develop. For me at least the color has always looked very natural and makes the skin feel soft and healthy. One note of caution is that you definitely have to be careful during application around areas like your feet, knees or elbows. What I recommend is simply using the towelette until it feels pretty dry without touching those areas and once most of the tanner has been used up from the towel, come back and apply very lightly (barely graze those mentioned areas) and the color will be perfect. If you don't do this, you will notice a buildup of orange color. Another thing I've noticed is that you have to make sure no water touches the skin anywhere you've applied the product for up to 30 minutes. It only takes a tiny drop of water to cause the tan to develop oddly. I was washing my hands after application and a little splash got on my leg and it caused small streaks there. So if this happens, just reapply the used towelette to that area and it will develop color normally. But overall, I'd recommend these Tan Towels to anyone at least to try and see if it works just as well for you. I hope this review helps make your self tanning decision a little easier. Good luck!

If you're looking for a quick, pretty even, and cheap tan, Tan Towels is a great option. The trick is to know how to apply self-tanner, which some people are not familiar with. As a pale person who has used and abused self tanners for a couple of decades, I've learned a few things about how to apply it. Here are a few tips: First - Cleanse and Exfoliate. Be sure your skin is as clean and smooth to ensure an even tan. Also be sure your skin is moisturized! If your skin is dry, chapped or peeling, chances are that the tan will be uneven. Second - Be Quick. As soon as you rip open the packaging, unwrap the towel, lay the sheet flat against your palm and go for the largest areas and move quickly in a circular motion, never letting your hand rest in one area for too long. Third - Broad strokes. Use lots of broad circular strokes so color doesn't distribute too much in one area. Remember to keep that hand moving! Fourth - Let your skin dry. Some people only wait 5-10 minutes and then put their clothes on. Wait longer and let the skin absorb the product before putting on clothes. I recommend loose clothing. Try to keep your skin dry for as long as possible so as not to disturb the tan that's developing. They say it takes a few hours to develop. Be sure to wash your hands immediately afterward with soap and water! If you apply tan towels correctly, you should achieve a pretty even tan. I often use it a day or two in advance for a wedding or special event and people usually assume it's a natural tan from a vacation. Be sure to pick the correct shade as if you pick one a lot darker than yours, there is a chance of getting that orange-y color. Read more
