Ed Hardy BLACK XXX Instant Dark Color Tanning Lotion, 13.5 oz

Im leaving a review because the reviews was so mixed. I have been using this lotion for over a week now and I love it!! Yes, the lotion is dark and it will stain your hands, however it is gone before the afternoon if you wash your hands after and frequently during the day! So dont freak out over it! It goes away!! Now the smell, the lotion smells good, after tanning it is a little bit stronger but nothing like the reviews. It does give it a little bit of a sweaty smell right after tanning. But the smell does not get stronger and stronger through out the day, it does the opposite. I tanned at 9:10 this morning and its 12:32. I just smell like I used tanning lotion and tanned but it is WEAKER. So do not be afraid of the reviews like I was lol. I also haven't had any issues with streaking, I did already have somewhat of a base tan.

Thought it should be better

I would genuinely give this more stars if I could. I ordered this because I read some good reviews and was a little skeptical because of some negative ones. This is a good quality lotion. After I ordered it I read some reviews (here on amazon) of people complaining and this and that so I gave it a go myself. It came in quickly and fully sealed with plastic packaging covering the whole bottle. Texture: It's not as thick as some lotions (I have one where you have to rub for several minutes to get it to go even everywhere) so this one goes on very easily and quickly so its hard to miss a spot. Scent: VERY nice. Comparable to the ones where you smell like burnt skin or coconut (where you KNOW you smell like a tanning salon) it has a perfume of some sort in it so it doesn't come off as pungent. I go tanning on my lunch while I'm at the office and no one smells anything. Stain: Ok this is where some people were complaining - you ordered a damn lotion with 193954739537 bronzers and it literally says "instant dark color tanning lotion" ... please use your brains. It will stain a little. BUT - if you RUB IT IN WELL ENOUGH - you will NOT have an issue. I've used this a couple of times and after I am done putting it all over my body i rub my hands together and then rub in between my fingers and on my knuckles (imagine a spray tan and how your hands look afterwards) and I notice a slight discolouration but nothing too crazy that a little water wouldn't fix. I genuinely did not have an issue anywhere else on my body. I'd HIGHLY recommend this. Within a few hours of my first tan (8 minutes in a standup) I was SUPER brown! I do have pale/beige skin so I do tan easier than most but still recommend this. The price you pay for it here is probably half or a third of what you'd pay for it at a salon.

Excellent produit! Bronze parfaitement sans laisser de teintes orange!! S'applique tres bien et bonne odeur

Love this tanning lotion! Second year I purchased. I use it outdoors and not in a tanning bed. The smell is Devine and works very quickly with no streaks!
