Darksyde Pitch Black Ultimate Silicone Bronzer Tanning Lotion 16oz

The lotion, is a little thin, but it make's your skin feel so soft & silky, so thats a huge plus. It smells ok, nothing special about the smell, but doesn't have that after tan yuck smell to bad either,. As far as color results from it, I didn't really notice a big difference. I like the way it makes my skin feel, but probably wouldn't buy again. Maybe good for some one who is just starting out in the tanning bed, but not for me.

Let me start buy saying I wasnt paid to buy this product or sent a free bottle. I saw that the reviews might have been fluffed but decided for the price it was worth a shot. So far I think i really like it, it might even be worthy of five stars for the price. I actually ordered a second bottle of the other scent and will see how I like that. The scent isnt bad, kinda beachy, its not great, just okay. The color however is nice. Before this i used paint it black and other variations of those cheap 13ounce brands on here. The only one that seemed to work okay was the tingle one and I hated seeing people I knew after the tanner, hugging them, then remembering I had to remind them their face might burn off in the next 20 minutes. So to save the embarrassment I decided to find a not tingle tanning lotion that worked to give me color. This one clearly has bronzers because my nails and in between my fingers can get stained since I leave it on a few hours after the tanner. I would say watch out for this, it can be a good thing and a bad thing, good because you know you will get color but bad because it can leave your hands sorta strange looking, its not as horrible as a sunless tanner product and shouldnt stain clothes but be aware of it. The consistency is strange, seems high in silicone because when I apply it its like im rubbing lube all over me. Not awful just a new texture from what im used to. It does spread easily tho which is nice and it seems to soak up pretty good too and not leave me super greasy. Over all for the size and price I like it, the biggest downside is having to carry around such a large bottle every time i tan. Will let you know how I like the other scent.

I did not care for this product. I am an active tanner and was using the Solid Black 100X and I liked it very well but thought i would try something new. I read the reviews and most people liked this lotion but I thought it was too thin, did not moisturize while tanning and I didn't like the color it gave. I am going back to the Solid Black 100X. It gives a nice golden brown to where I felt like this lotion had an orange tint. Everyone likes things in a different way but I would not recommend this lotion. Sending mine back for refund.

I have a question for other purchasers of this product. I received my bottle yesterday and the bottle doesn't look like the one pictured. Also I used it and now my hands are an awful burnt orange colore. I've never experienced this kind of staining with tanning lotions other than self tanners. Anyone else experience a different bottle or discoloration? I'm giving 3 stars because I received color after one use.

This stuff turned into a chunky jell and is no longer a lotion texture. It's also very very thin..probably won't buy again. I think it does make me dark though, hard to tell because I use such a high level tanning bed, but I'm really disappointed in what the consistency has done.

I ordered this product due to the fairly great reviews... it does have a bit of a strong smell, but that goes away once applied to the body. Everything about this lotion was great except that the day after I went tanning, I realized the bronzing agent in the lotion left huge streaks on the back side of my arms. I had rubbed the product in very well and wasn't able to see any evident streaking until the next day - and it was too late to rub the lotion in or remove the streaking on my own. I had to just let it fade way over 3-4 days. Overall a great product, just make sure you rub it in well - and keep away from your eyes and it did make my eyes water a bit when applied to the face.

The lotion smells good while putting it on but doesn't seem to stay smelling good in your body. There is a lot off bronzer in this lotion and I looked like I had a bad case of spray tanning with splotches of orange all over me. I threw the bottle away after two uses because I want a more natural tan. This lotion is good for you if you want a more orange look.

I bought this product because of it's high DHA content. I rotate it with natural bronzers (from AG and JWOWW), intensifiers (JWOWW and Designer Skin), a tingle, and one other DHA bronzer (both Swedish Beauty). I currently do not use a facial bronzer as my present lotions do not irritate my face. This product irritated my face (slight burning) and it makes me slightly orange. I do think it's an important member of my lotion collection as it is the highest DHA content and I can easily use a more gentle one on my face (Swedish Beauty is my pick). It goes on thin and doesn't feel very nourishing. It's a good lotion though.
