This self-tanning Lotion from the Bondi Sands collection combines a light tan with a nourishing formula. Here’s a quick look at what you can expect.

• Subtle light-to-medium colour, not overly dark
• Creamy texture that spreads easily
• Coconut scent partly masks typical self-tanner smell
• Contains shea butter and cocoa butter for soft, nourished skin
• Aloe vera supports a comfortable skin feel
• Guide colour helps you see where you've applied
• Combination of DHA and erythrulose for a more even result
• 200 ml, plenty for multiple applications

Preparation is key for the best result. Follow these steps for an even, streak-free colour.

1. Exfoliate your skin one day before with a scrub. This helps the self-tanner adhere more evenly.
2. Apply a thin layer of regular body Lotion on dry areas like knees, elbows, and ankles first.
3. Apply the Lotion in circular motions, preferably with an application mitt for flawless coverage.
4. Work upwards from your legs and blend transitions well, such as at wrists and ankles.
5. Wash your hands immediately after application thoroughly.
6. Allow the Lotion to develop for at least four to eight hours before showering.

Using a mitt? The Bondi Sands Application Mitt is designed specifically for even application and prevents brown stains on your palms.

Your skin gradually darkens in the hours after application. This is due to DHA, an ingredient that reacts with amino acids in the top skin layer to form brown pigments. The Lotion also contains erythrulose, a secondary tanning agent that works more slowly and can help produce a more even and longer-lasting result.

The formula includes shea butter, cocoa butter, glycerine, and aloe vera, keeping your skin feeling soft after use. This makes the self tan Lotion feel like a regular body Lotion. For fair skin types, it often delivers a natural beach tone, though results vary by skin tone.

The Light/Medium Lotion gives a subtle, gentle tan that works best for fair skin tones and people just starting with self-tanning. Those experienced with Bondi Sands self-tanners who want a clearer colour difference sometimes opt for the Dark variant. If you have very fair skin and want a cautious, gradual Glow, this is a great choice. For a more striking tan, consider a darker option within the Bondi Sands range.

On average, the colour remains visible for four to seven days, depending on your skin and habits. The longer you want to keep the tan looking fresh, the more you should moisturise.

Users report that the tan can fade patchily, especially on dry areas like knees and ankles. Daily moisturising Lotion noticeably slows fading. Avoid hot showers and rough sponges. To refresh the colour, apply a new layer on fully exfoliated skin. The Bondi Sands Body Scrub Coconut & Sea Salt preps your skin well for this.

This Lotion is often a good choice for dry skin thanks to shea butter, cocoa butter, and glycerine in the formula. These ingredients soothe and support the skin barrier.

If you have sensitive skin or react to perfume or colourants, it’s wise to test a small area first. The Lotion contains perfume and synthetic colourants, which may irritate sensitive skin. This isn’t necessarily a reason to avoid the product, but something to consider. For dry skin needing extra nourishment after tanning, the Bondi Sands Body Moisturiser Coconut complements it well.

The Bondi Sands self-tanning Lotion and foam both give a light to medium colour, but feel very different to use. The Lotion has a creamy, heavy texture that spreads slowly and stays moist longer on your skin. This gives you more time to work carefully, ideal if you’re new to self-tanning. The foam dries faster and feels lighter, which users say is nice on warmer days or if you want to apply quickly. The final results are similar, but those who take their time usually prefer the Lotion.
