Hi Dominque, as I Professional Spray Tan Artist I Loved this video and your suggestions. I can not spray tan myself easily, I usually am in my back yard with my tent trying to be a contortionist to get all the areas. I have tried several of these products and I love the mousse brands the best. I also recommend the same tanning drops for the face as spraying sometimes comes out spotty if someone squints or scrunch up their nose. I can blend it out but spray solution is different and gets into the skin fast and the solution is drying to the skin. The drops with the moisturizer is wonderful and if you are someone who is older and have dry and/or wrinkled or sagging a little in some area’s the drops are a blessing. You don’t have to have a perfect 20 year old body to show some skin and your video was great for all of us over 45 to still have that glow safely without hrs in the damaging sun. Thanks for sharing 😉
I use all of these products as well quick tan by Body drench is actually my favorite along with the spray by b.tan. I find that the sprays absorb into my skin where the mousse is a little too water-based and my skin can only absorb so much so I always have to do two or more layers. If you let yourself to air dry for roughly 5 minutes between the spray ones you can actually give yourself a pretty nice dark tan. I find that quick tan actually does stay whatever color you spray on your body fairly well and within an hour or so. My trick since I do use all of the same products and I mean all moose included, is to get a continuous spray bottle and mix all of them together in one spray bottle. That way you have the 11-day formula from b.tan mixed with the instant bronzing from body drench etc. I also apply with just regular latex gloves and rub it in versus using a mitt I feel the mit absorbs too much of the color. I do use a mitt to apply it to my back I just have to do two or three more layers to get it to the same darkness as when I just rubbed it into my skin with a latex gloves. Trust the process with the latex gloves but I do end up using less product and get a darker result
You are a blessing to women! I love how authentic and genuine you are. You have taken some of the fear of self-tanning off the table. Great tips! PS: I am totally impressed and a little jealous of how toned and fit your body is :)
You are the “Consumer Reporter “ for us all! Wow! I’m excited to try a new product! I see a myriad of self tanners online and in the stores but hesitant to purchase because of…number one…like you said that awful smell, funky colors, etc. You are our go-to person. Unafraid to jump in and give us all the good, the bad, and the ugly about products! I think you need to patent that back tanner applicator idea! Genius! 💡 You are so beautiful and your energy is contagious! So thankful that you give younger ladies an alternative to dangerous tanning methods! May is Melanoma cancer awareness month!!! Wish you and these options had been around when I was a tanning teenager! 🌞🥰🙌🏻
SOOOOO HELPFUL!! I’ve been scared of using them since I looked like an Orangutan 🦧 in the 9th grade! That’s been 40 years ago!!! I cannot wait to try again! By the way, I just love you and everything you share with us! Keep blessin’ us! Be blessed!
Yay!!! Thanks so much. I’ve been self-tanning since diagnosed with melanoma over 20 years ago and I’m always up for a new self tanner. You are the best my friend!!!❤️😘👏🏻👏🏻
Self-tanning is not my thing, but preparation is essential and this is important if you want to tan in the sun. Getting your community through this process and all explanations as well as your preparation to know all products is such a pleasure to listen and watch. Thanks for sharing this with your community. Big hug from Italy 🤗🤗🤗
Hi Dominique, I literally just watched the self tanning video you did 4 years ago and did a Happy 💃 when I saw this video hit RUclips this afternoon! Thanks for another fantastic video and Happy Mother’s Day!!
Ever since one of your first "tan-in-a-can" videos, I have self-tanned in the summer. This was the best full tutorial that I've seen. I would like to add that I like drops for my face as well. I have a makeup brush that the handle fell off that I now use to apply my face tan/moisturizer and it works great.
S Godbout, do apply this to your face in the morning or evening? And would u mind listing your sequence? I use retinol, moisturizer and an extra thick cream, so not sure where to fit it in.
Love a good self tan! You're so right, exfoliating before application is key. That mousse that lasts 11 days sounds amazing. Clean Tan and Loving Tan are also both great and less toxic. They last over a week & gives me a dark glow that makes me look like I've actually been laying out in this SoCal sun.
I love this. I’m glad they changed the formulas to have no smell now and fast drying. I think I might give it a try again. A swim suit looks for the summer video would be great!
Well, I'm a dark-skinned sista, and what's really beautiful about this video is I feel "complimented" seeing that others want to look more like me! In my younger days, my skin color was regarded as undesirable by my own race and other races. I support women doing whatever they like if it makes them feel confident and pretty, so enjoy your new self-tanned look!
I agree. Natural melanin is a blessing from The Most High God. I thank Him everyday for His decision to bless me with beautiful brown skin. We all should love the skin color that God has chosen for each and everyone one of us. He makes no mistakes.
I love this!! Life Soul Centered...I have no idea how old you are, but I remember as a young girl, watching Julia. The dynamic and gorgeous Diahann Carrol played Julia, a hard working nurse and single mom. In one episode, her son asked why everyone was laying out in the sun on the beach....she said, "I don't know! Maybe because they think Black is Beautiful!" I have never forgotten that and I totally agree!
@@maureenfox7871 Black is beautiful. We (Blacks) come in so many different shades. That is what makes us so beautiful. God knew what He was doing when He created our numerous range of skin colors. Praise The Lord!!!
I have never had really good results with self-tanning, so I just gave up on it. After watching your video and using one of the products you used, I got amazing results! Thank you so much.
Dominique❣️I’ve never used anything but St Tropaz ever. I tried the b.tan forever and ever and the bronze color blew me away. I needed a change and I can’t tell you how beautiful I felt ♥️💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻Thank you
I did it! I was actually successful. I followed your instructions for exfoliating and I used Jergens from your previous video and no streaks. It looked great! Thanks so much. Ps. The mitt was a game changer as was the mitt on the brush .
I am so thankful for the time you spent explaining the process of self tanning. The products and the differences , your tips as well. I am planning on trying it , searching for a very flair skin . Also I read your amazing book and going to read it for the second time. Today I will be changing my hairstyle from long to a pixie bob ( Like the one you had in the past ) . Thank you so much for inspiring us to be bold and bless . Love you forever 😘🙏🏻
LOVE the self tanners of TODAY compared to when I was in my 20’s….I am currently using a makeup brush for the tops of my hands/feet and face. I find that the brush allows me to really get the product worked in and doesn’t over applicate. Thanks again for always having pertinent content on your Channel! Feeling really BOLD with a beautiful glow and BLESSED by the information!
Dominique 🧡 I adore you and I know you don’t mind my extra skin love. I tell my clients to be very mindful of applying any self tanners to your face. A good selfless tanner will work with your melanin naturally. If it does it will actually make Melasma and age spots darker. If you use one that simply stains it will do the same. We also see break outs and issues with fungal activity. Stick to the body. Try to use a powder bronzer on the face or just love your natural color. Also DHA use to be more chemically derived, so yes use a natural or organic formula and read the label. As women we don’t need any more chemicals on or in our bodies. Blessings and Happy Mother’s Day Dominique and everyone 🍑🙌🏻🧡Lisa
@@janinealexa567 I do not. Many companies in the United States don’t list their full ingredients list , just the things they want you to see. Be mindful 🍑🙌🏻Lisa
I should definitely do this! When I was young, I did not tan evenly and considering that I have light, Irish skin that I got from my father, I burn easily. These products definitely appear to be better than the instant tanning product that was available to us when I was a teenager! It was called QT which stood for Quick Tan, and it stank to high Heaven! And if you didn’t immediately wash this stuff off of your hands, they would be a nasty shade of blotchy orange, especially in the creases!
You will still get the hands if you don’t (immefiately) get it off them. Ive not had a mitt and used my hands. Washed them when i was done with soap but still turned orange since my hands were dry. I guess the time it took to cover my body was just too long and it stuck! I like to use rubber gloves. Ive had a few mitts leak the tanner through to my hands- lol.
I’m late to the party but wanted to share that for several years I have been using L’Oréal Sublime Bronze mixed with my body lotion. One squirt of tanner to one pump of lotion…mix together between palms and then apply like I’m applying lotion. It makes a very natural looking tan and I do it about twice a week. It makes just the right of color for my skin and I get compliments frequently. Thank you, Dominique, for all of your wonderful tips! 🥰
Great tutorial and love that you showed several brands! One thing i rarely hear people mention is its best to do tanner at night, sleep, rinse in am. Wearing it during day risk sweating it off in weird ways, clothes transfer, and smell (even though risk for smell & transfer is lower than in past- it still happens). I sleep with very light weight thin long sleeve tshirt and long light pant so nothing gets on my bedding. Good lesson for getting back. They also sell reachers for back with foam on it for putting on lotion to your back- but love your idea even better!
Dominique your skin is really GLOWING! I also love those eyelashes!! They are so dramatic looking and go so well with your tan and short haircut! Almost like Twiggy!
wayyyy LOVE this video!!! THANK YOU as I bought three dffrnt self tanning products but stillll hvnt used them as I was/am totally scared that it Soo won't turn out!!😭😭 THIS is Soo helpful so now I'm going to definitely try my self tanning!😊 Thank YOU!!!🤗🤗
I appreciate the tips. I have purchased so many tanning products over the years and never use them. Never. I’ve seen so many streaky, orangey self tan jobs. I’m inspired to try. Thank you!
I’ve tried numerous SELF TANNERS over the years. Some gave better results than others. Actually just getting ready to use BONDI SANDS for the first time. Have never heard of B TAN FOREVER till I found yr video today. Will definitely be trying that one sometime in the near future. GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO. THANKS FOR ALL YR HINTS & TRICKS.
I love the Bondi Sands self tanners! The green can definitely seem scary at first but I find it really helps to counteract any potential orange hue. Great for people with more olive skin tones or for those who are worried about ending up orange. Just have to deal with the green skin while it’s developing lol!
I love the b.tan self tanner. I am Hispanic and fair skinned but I do tan easily in the sun. However, now in my 50’s I’m seeing sun spots and freckles appearing on my skin and I know it’s from my many years of sun exposure (hate to say with no protection). So as of a few years ago, I started using self tanners and b.tan is one that really shows up well even on my olive skin tone, and gives me a great tanned glow. Great demonstration by the way. Love your videos. ******* idea for a subject: Pillow/pillowcases that help prevent sleep lines and creases on our face. I’ve heard there’s such a thing to help prevent us from smooshing our face and waking up with creases -pillowcase lines
Wow finally a “ how to tan” video, Dominique you’re o e in a million. I’ve always wondered how to do my back, well you’re the one😍love all your products, you are looking very tan & ready to fly✈️ to tropical paradise 🌊✈️🐠🐟🌺🐚🦩
Hello! I hope you had a wonderful day! I was in my sewing room yet a project ready for filming and now I get to sit and watch your video! You are my treat for the day! I hope you have a lovely week ahead! Thanks for sharing your informative video and your expertise!
Thank you Dominique, I bought a product recently and I am glad I watched your routine here. I love that you always explained what the product contains. You look amazingg!
This information is absolutely wonderful!!! I remember horrible experiences using smelly self-tanners in the 70s. Your information, recommendations, hacks, and demonstrations now make me feel safe to venture back into self-tanning! I especially appreciate your clearly stated recommendations and the written product information. Thank you!
Love you & your channel Dominique! I’ve tried all the self tanners. I love my self Tanner when I first put it on & even the 2nd day but….. the 3nd day my hands begin to look rusty no matter what Tanner I use! Light age spots/dark spots pop up looking extra dark which looks so bad. Also, I don’t understand how the self Tanner lasts iF we are taking a shower as when I shower & rub soap over my body, the Tanner washes off! Of course I’m glad it does when my hands & fingers are looking rusty & dirty. I love a nice tan glow as I am light skin tone. We all look our best with a nice glow! I’m going to go exactly by your instruction Dominique & see if it will help my glow! Thank you for all your advice, ideas, & hacks! I love you & I’m a big fan! Sending you love hugs & prayer!!♥️🤗🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m a true redhead. I also have Lupus SLE. My medications make me super sun sensitive. I tried self tanners. Was not impressed. The chemicals are very strong smelling. My doctors advised against it. Which I’m glad I listened . I was recently diagnosed with Restrictive lung disease. I’m not a smoker. Never have been. Most of the people I know that use these products, look streaky and orange. Especially on the hands, face, inner arms and legs. In fact I thought it made them look older. My husband thought the same. God bless
Great video as always!! I’ve been self tanning for over 10 years tried them all - My all time favorite is loving tan mousse and for hands and feet Versa Spa spray in a bottle comes out flawless … and if you are allergic to face tanning ingredients Clinique self tan bronzer I use every night wake up with a glow. And if you have the time and money nothing beats Versa Spa Pro at a tanning salon spray I one minute ☀️🌈 For the back I use that same brush application covered helps lots along with the back applicators sold on Amazon long piece with handles on each end looks like a towel.
Great video Dominique - just love the scrub brush hack for the back, genius! Two questions: 1) How does your facial skin care work with the self tan? I always avoid tanning my face thinking it will mess with my skincare. 2) With the sprays, how do you avoid it going everywhere and staining everything in your bathroom?
I’ve used the self-tanning drops before, and just mixed it with my face moisturizer. I’ve had a change in face maintenance (lol) though, so I don’t know how it might work for me now. I’d love to hear more answers/suggestions about Question #1!!!
I’m curious about this as well. I use self tanner on my face but also have a pretty aggressive daily skin care routine. I notice my “tan” seems to disappear after my nightly skin care routine. I can see it on my cotton pads and washcloth. I have to reapply tanner daily…kind of a pain.
Thank you for putting out an updated 'tan in a can'. I believe we all look healthier with a sun kissed look & this is a safe way to achieve the look .. I'm so fair that I can literally get a little 'pink' if the paperboy doesn't hit the porch and I have to walk out to the driveway!! :) I've thought about using a self-tanner but there are so many out there and I recall my 80's or 90's fail - I don't think we had mitts back then, or if we did, I missed the memo. As always, thank you for taking the guess work out of it all and for sharing your beauty secrets. You are a true gem. Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day weekend
I literally was just confronted with the back application conundrum this week when I looked in the mirror and noticed the obvious deMarcation line from my tan shoulders to paler back when wearing a sundress 😂 Thank you for the brilliant tan back hack !😘 I use ST Tropez self tan classic mousse and love the results but will try the one you mentioned for the 10 day wear 👍. Who’s shorts are you wearing ?.. they are a nice fit on you ! Thanks for all the good tips/ hacks🙏 Happy Mothers Day 🌷
This has got to be the best sunless tanning video I have watched. Great tips Dominique and yes, I am going to get my glow on this weekend. Thank you😎..Liz⛱
Self tanner is great. Love the video...but which self tanner is best goin in a chemical treated pool. I notice when you self tan and go in pool it strips the color. Any recommendations. Thank u
Great tips!! Especially the loofah brush, mini mitt & sponge blender hacks! Lotion on body parts, too!! Try Loving Tan, very natural ingredients & REALLY works. It’s my fave!!
This was so great! You’re telling us all the good secrets! I would love to see a video about styling summer whites. The right undergarments, white jeans for all sizes and shapes, which white sneaks are trending etc. and white with a tan is…chef’s kiss! Have lived watching your content for 5 years and have learned a ton💞
What a great video! I love the mitt over the brush hack. I never wanted to do them, because my husband wasn't around when I was doing it and then I didn't want to mess with the back later. Question? Do you find any dark marks on your body are magnified when you use this, such as hyperpigmentation. Suggestion for a future video. I know your Mom is aging and I think that is something a lot of us are dealing with. Do you have any great ideas to make the transition less stressful for everyone? Any idea would help! Happy Mother's Day to you and your Mom!
What a great tip for getting products on our backs by ourselves! FYI in the morning, I started out using the Jergens Natural Glow SPF 20 on my face and the Jergens Natural Glow Firming daily moisturizer on my body before I went on an 8-day trip to Maui. My skin was ready for all the time I spent in the sun and outdoors in the water. I also used Banana Boat Light as Air 50+ in the morning and I was good to go and did not need to reapply. I came back home a golden brown and did not sunburn the entire trip! I've got my summer glow on and know I'm going to deal with the rest of the summer now. Thank you Dominique for all of your wonderful tips and tricks for keeping us our best selves.
I love b.tan! They have many different blends I have one it’s a little green at first then it turns , nice color have tried 3 of them Walgreens and Walmart carry them too
Thank you!!! You explain everything in such detail and with such grace and respect. I need to be able to know how to do this by the third week of July and with your help it will not be any problem. Thank you so very much for the blessing that you are to women everywhere.
Great video, so informative! I’m wondering how face tanner works for faces with age spots or I should say sun damage. I would guess the tanner would not look even? 💗
I tried the drops. It is dryer and less sticky than b.tan forever + ever, but it has more of an orange cast. So I am sticking w the b tan on my face as well. It DOES accentuate my age spots on my face, but I feel there has to be some trade off to have some color on my skin. I am staying put of the sun bc of skin cancers.
thank you! i used to go to the box for a tan, and the lotions were SO EXPENSIVE and this was like 20 years ago. I did have a great tan, however it was so damaging to my skin. When your young you tend to think you will live forever lol.
A video of my dreams ✨️ ♥️ I have never been a sun worshiper. I've wanted to self tan, but I worry about the streaking, blotches and stink. Thanks to you, I'm ordering a few products and I'm going to be bold & give it a try!!! You are wonderful ❤️ Thanks 😊 🙏 ❤️
I’m with you Marypierce - thank you so much for the video. I have always wanted to try as I’m very fair and am getting on with a few spider veins showing in my legs which makes wearing dresses not as comfortable as I’d like. I haven’t tried before as I wasn’t sure where to start - saving this one for future referral 💫🙌
Also make sure to clean your mitt regularly! 😊 Any buildup will affect the tanner application. Thanks, Dominique! Edited to add: I am incredibly fair and love the b. tan formula with the violet base! It keeps me from looking too orange.
I do a similar step with lotion to prevent dark spots from being darker. I also, use a cotton swab over the spots to be sure not much tanner stays on those spots. I have recently noticed a couple of places that have lost pigment. I put on those places a tinted tanner.
I have never self tan because I didn’t think I need it and I’m happy with my skin color but now I’m starting to consider it. Great video as always. Thank you 🙏
I use moisturizer on my elbows, knees, ankles and tops of my feet very lightly before using my self tanning lotion and I don't get streaks. Of coarse efoliating is extremely important and shaving the day before. Prep makes a huge difference.
Have you tried Bronzed Cactus yet? I just did and I LOVE it. They have the face drops, a great exfoliating mitt, and a back applicator!!! I think they are running a Mother's Day sale, too. My daughter told me about them and so glad she did, it's the BEST I have ever tried.
Thank you so much, Dominique! What a blessing for our skin that self-tanners have come such a long way. Silly question: When you’re spraying on your body, isn’t there an issue with everything around you (bathroom tiles, furniture, etc.) also getting sprayed and „tanned“?
Way to sacrifice the bedroom carpet for us all. I spray tan in my shower too. You’re the best! I felt like I just spent girlfriend time hanging out in your bathroom. Ha. So fun! I just ordered some of the products. Thank you my friend.
Wow all the different shades so pretty thk you for showing us how to apply them but what to do before applying it 👍👍I like the ones that you can mix with a moisturizer 👍easy for me .
Such a great video! What I find most challenging is wether to put self tanner on my hands and feet.I feel sometimes it looks obvious that you self tanned if not including your fingers and toes but also very difficult to make it look natural.

These products definitely appear to be better than the instant tanning product that was available to us when I was a teenager! It was called QT which stood for Quick Tan, and it stank to high Heaven! And if you didn’t immediately wash this stuff off of your hands, they would be a nasty shade of blotchy orange, especially in the creases!
Ahhhhh. I recall. We were Oompah Loompahs
QT orange and smelling like vinegar, ahhh, good times. No one was fooled that we had a real tan...
You will still get the hands if you don’t (immefiately) get it off them. Ive not had a mitt and used my hands. Washed them when i was done with soap but still turned orange since my hands were dry. I guess the time it took to cover my body was just too long and it stuck! I like to use rubber gloves. Ive had a few mitts leak the tanner through to my hands- lol.
I’m late to the party but wanted to share that for several years I have been using L’Oréal Sublime Bronze mixed with my body lotion. One squirt of tanner to one pump of lotion…mix together between palms and then apply like I’m applying lotion. It makes a very natural looking tan and I do it about twice a week. It makes just the right of color for my skin and I get compliments frequently. Thank you, Dominique, for all of your wonderful tips! 🥰
Great tutorial and love that you showed several brands! One thing i rarely hear people mention is its best to do tanner at night, sleep, rinse in am. Wearing it during day risk sweating it off in weird ways, clothes transfer, and smell (even though risk for smell & transfer is lower than in past- it still happens). I sleep with very light weight thin long sleeve tshirt and long light pant so nothing gets on my bedding.
Good lesson for getting back. They also sell reachers for back with foam on it for putting on lotion to your back- but love your idea even better!
Wow! I had no idea that self tanners had progressed so much! No smell-Vegan-Long lasting!Thank yo so much!!!
Dominique your skin is really GLOWING! I also love those eyelashes!! They are so dramatic looking and go so well with your tan and short haircut! Almost like Twiggy!
wayyyy LOVE this video!!! THANK YOU as I bought three dffrnt self tanning products but stillll hvnt used them as I was/am totally scared that it Soo won't turn out!!😭😭 THIS is Soo helpful so now I'm going to definitely try my self tanning!😊 Thank YOU!!!🤗🤗
I have used Beauty By Earth self tanner for years and it works for me. Happy Mother's Day Dominique.
Thank you for this comprehensive review! Lots of great tips and recommendations here. I really can’t wait to get ready for summer 😘
I appreciate the tips. I have purchased so many tanning products over the years and never use them. Never. I’ve seen so many streaky, orangey self tan jobs. I’m inspired to try. Thank you!
I’ve tried numerous SELF TANNERS over the years. Some gave better results than others. Actually just getting ready to use BONDI SANDS for the first time. Have never heard of B TAN FOREVER till I found yr video today. Will definitely be trying that one sometime in the near future.
GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO. THANKS FOR ALL YR HINTS & TRICKS.
I love the Bondi Sands self tanners! The green can definitely seem scary at first but I find it really helps to counteract any potential orange hue. Great for people with more olive skin tones or for those who are worried about ending up orange. Just have to deal with the green skin while it’s developing lol!
appreciate your hacks and opinion about the smell associated with the tanning products - that's a game changer for me. thanks
Thank you for the tips. You did a great job not being afraid to use all these different products on you all at once 😆. Very much appreciated.
I love the b.tan self tanner. I am Hispanic and fair skinned but I do tan easily in the sun. However, now in my 50’s I’m seeing sun spots and freckles appearing on my skin and I know it’s from my many years of sun exposure (hate to say with no protection). So as of a few years ago, I started using self tanners and b.tan is one that really shows up well even on my olive skin tone, and gives me a great tanned glow. Great demonstration by the way. Love your videos.
******* idea for a subject: Pillow/pillowcases that help prevent sleep lines and creases on our face. I’ve heard there’s such a thing to help prevent us from smooshing our face and waking up with creases -pillowcase lines
Try silk pillowcases.
Omg!!! You blew my mind away with the scrubber hack!!!! So brilliant!!! Thank you!!!
Wow finally a “ how to tan” video, Dominique you’re o e in a million. I’ve always wondered how to do my back, well you’re the one😍love all your products, you are looking very tan & ready to fly✈️ to tropical paradise 🌊✈️🐠🐟🌺🐚🦩
Hello! I hope you had a wonderful day! I was in my sewing room yet a project ready for filming and now I get to sit and watch your video! You are my treat for the day! I hope you have a lovely week ahead! Thanks for sharing your informative video and your expertise!
Wow thanks for the mitt hack for ur back!! I’m definitely sharing this info
Thank you Dominique, I bought a product recently and I am glad I watched your routine here. I love that you always explained what the product contains. You look amazingg!
B.tan is a really good one. I can say have used this product for over a year. Very fast results..it is very good! Thanks Dominique.
Dominique you are brilliant! Back tanning hack is the best!
This information is absolutely wonderful!!! I remember horrible experiences using smelly self-tanners in the 70s. Your information, recommendations, hacks, and demonstrations now make me feel safe to venture back into self-tanning! I especially appreciate your clearly stated recommendations and the written product information. Thank you!
Loving your channel! Getting my glow on, thanks to you who glows from the inside out💐. Have a blessed Mother’s Day weekend and hugs to all!
Love you & your channel Dominique! I’ve tried all the self tanners. I love my self Tanner when I first put it on & even the 2nd day but….. the 3nd day my hands begin to look rusty no matter what Tanner I use! Light age spots/dark spots pop up looking extra dark which looks so bad.
Also, I don’t understand how the self Tanner lasts iF we are taking a shower as when I shower & rub soap over my body, the Tanner washes off! Of course I’m glad it does when my hands & fingers are looking rusty & dirty. I love a nice tan glow as I am light skin tone. We all look our best with a nice glow!
I’m going to go exactly by your instruction Dominique & see if it will help my glow! Thank you for all your advice, ideas, & hacks!
I love you & I’m a big fan! Sending you love hugs & prayer!!♥️🤗🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
As always another great video! You are such a natural teacher.
That tip on how to do your back is brilliant!
My grammar-loving heart was happy to hear "Never end a sentence with a preposition." Wise advice 👏🏻😊❤️❤️!!!
Hi Dominique… when you use the face drops and your face gets tanned, how do you adjust your make up? A darker shade of foundation? Bronzer?
I’m a true redhead. I also have Lupus SLE. My medications make me super sun sensitive. I tried self tanners. Was not impressed. The chemicals are very strong smelling. My doctors advised against it. Which I’m glad I listened . I was recently diagnosed with Restrictive lung disease. I’m not a smoker. Never have been. Most of the people I know that use these products, look streaky and orange. Especially on the hands, face, inner arms and legs. In fact I thought it made them look older. My husband thought the same. God bless
Great video as always!! I’ve been self tanning for over 10 years tried them all - My all time favorite is loving tan mousse and for hands and feet Versa Spa spray in a bottle comes out flawless … and if you are allergic to face tanning ingredients Clinique self tan bronzer I use every night wake up with a glow. And if you have the time and money nothing beats Versa Spa Pro at a tanning salon spray I one minute ☀️🌈 For the back I use that same brush application covered helps lots along with the back applicators sold on Amazon long piece with handles on each end looks like a towel.
Great video Dominique - just love the scrub brush hack for the back, genius! Two questions: 1) How does your facial skin care work with the self tan? I always avoid tanning my face thinking it will mess with my skincare. 2) With the sprays, how do you avoid it going everywhere and staining everything in your bathroom?
I’ve used the self-tanning drops before, and just mixed it with my face moisturizer. I’ve had a change in face maintenance (lol) though, so I don’t know how it might work for me now. I’d love to hear more answers/suggestions about Question #1!!!
I’m curious about this as well. I use self tanner on my face but also have a pretty aggressive daily skin care routine. I notice my “tan” seems to disappear after my nightly skin care routine. I can see it on my cotton pads and washcloth. I have to reapply tanner daily…kind of a pain.
Thank you for putting out an updated 'tan in a can'. I believe we all look healthier with a sun kissed look & this is a safe way to achieve the look .. I'm so fair that I can literally get a little 'pink' if the paperboy doesn't hit the porch and I have to walk out to the driveway!! :) I've thought about using a self-tanner but there are so many out there and I recall my 80's or 90's fail - I don't think we had mitts back then, or if we did, I missed the memo. As always, thank you for taking the guess work out of it all and for sharing your beauty secrets. You are a true gem.
Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day weekend
Wow,Tanologist really works!!! Go light on application!
I literally was just confronted with the back application conundrum this week when I looked in the mirror and noticed the obvious deMarcation line from my tan shoulders to paler back when wearing a sundress 😂
Thank you for the brilliant tan back hack !😘
I use ST Tropez self tan classic mousse and love the results but will try the one you mentioned for the 10 day wear 👍.
Who’s shorts are you wearing ?.. they are a nice fit on you !
Thanks for all the good tips/ hacks🙏
Happy Mothers Day 🌷
Thanks so much for doing this research! You make life so easy for us! Have a happy Mother’s Day ❤️
This has got to be the best sunless tanning video I have watched. Great tips Dominique and yes, I am going to get my glow on this weekend. Thank you😎..Liz⛱
Self tanner is great. Love the video...but which self tanner is best goin in a chemical treated pool. I notice when you self tan and go in pool it strips the color. Any recommendations. Thank u
Great tips!! Especially the loofah brush, mini mitt & sponge blender hacks! Lotion on body parts, too!! Try Loving Tan, very natural ingredients & REALLY works. It’s my fave!!
This was so great! You’re telling us all the good secrets! I would love to see a video about styling summer whites. The right undergarments, white jeans for all sizes and shapes, which white sneaks are trending etc. and white with a tan is…chef’s kiss! Have lived watching your content for 5 years and have learned a ton💞
That trick for doing your back is genius! Thank you for that one! 🤩🤩🤩
What a great video! I love the mitt over the brush hack. I never wanted to do them, because my husband wasn't around when I was doing it and then I didn't want to mess with the back later. Question? Do you find any dark marks on your body are magnified when you use this, such as hyperpigmentation. Suggestion for a future video. I know your Mom is aging and I think that is something a lot of us are dealing with. Do you have any great ideas to make the transition less stressful for everyone? Any idea would help! Happy Mother's Day to you and your Mom!
What a great tip for getting products on our backs by ourselves! FYI in the morning, I started out using the Jergens Natural Glow SPF 20 on my face and the Jergens Natural Glow Firming daily moisturizer on my body before I went on an 8-day trip to Maui. My skin was ready for all the time I spent in the sun and outdoors in the water. I also used Banana Boat Light as Air 50+ in the morning and I was good to go and did not need to reapply. I came back home a golden brown and did not sunburn the entire trip! I've got my summer glow on and know I'm going to deal with the rest of the summer now. Thank you Dominique for all of your wonderful tips and tricks for keeping us our best selves.
I love b.tan! They have many different blends I have one it’s a little green at first then it turns , nice color have tried 3 of them Walgreens and Walmart carry them too
Thank you so much for your tips and advice! I am a mature woman who has very pale skin. I like pale skin, but I also love that sun-kissed glow. ❤
Thank you!!! You explain everything in such detail and with such grace and respect. I need to be able to know how to do this by the third week of July and with your help it will not be any problem. Thank you so very much for the blessing that you are to women everywhere.
Love the Farmhouse Fresh Lustre Drench Instant Glow Dry Oil & FHF Bronze Fox Tanning Drops.
Love the way you demonstrate exactly how to apply each product, ❤️👍
I just got the clear gel one from B Tan I loveeeeee it !!!
Great video, so informative! I’m wondering how face tanner works for faces with age spots or I should say sun damage. I would guess the tanner would not look even? 💗
That’s why I can never put self tanner on face, it makes any little spot extremely darker.
Wonder if you could put a little moisturizer on the spots 1st
I take a qtip dipped in makeup remover and wipe the age spot..
I tried the drops. It is dryer and less sticky than b.tan forever + ever, but it has more of an orange cast. So I am sticking w the b tan on my face as well. It DOES accentuate my age spots on my face, but I feel there has to be some trade off to have some color on my skin. I am staying put of the sun bc of skin cancers.
Great tips Thankyou!
Happy Mother's Day Dominique! 💐 🌹 💐 🌹
Oh thank goodness for this video, I wanted to try it but was afraid at my age, so glad you posted this video.
Love this! You tried all these different tanners one video! Awesome
thank you! i used to go to the box for a tan, and the lotions were SO EXPENSIVE and this was like 20 years ago. I did have a great tan, however it was so damaging to my skin. When your young you tend to think you will live forever lol.
I am new to self tanning. Loved the video. Which is your favorite for mature skin?
You are a GENIUS!! The scrub brush + mitt hack is A-MAZING!!!
Wonderful Tips and Products Love it And Love you and all the Info you give in all aspects of our Lives !🌺🌺
A video of my dreams ✨️ ♥️ I have never been a sun worshiper. I've wanted to self tan, but I worry about the streaking, blotches and stink. Thanks to you, I'm ordering a few products and I'm going to be bold & give it a try!!! You are wonderful ❤️ Thanks 😊 🙏 ❤️
Thank you so much!
I’m with you Marypierce - thank you so much for the video. I have always wanted to try as I’m very fair and am getting on with a few spider veins showing in my legs which makes wearing dresses not as comfortable as I’d like. I haven’t tried before as I wasn’t sure where to start - saving this one for future referral 💫🙌
Self tanners have come a LONG way…these concerns aren’t an issue anymore. Thankfully!
Also make sure to clean your mitt regularly! 😊 Any buildup will affect the tanner application. Thanks, Dominique!
Edited to add: I am incredibly fair and love the b. tan formula with the violet base! It keeps me from looking too orange.
I do a similar step with lotion to prevent dark spots from being darker. I also, use a cotton swab over the spots to be sure not much tanner stays on those spots. I have recently noticed a couple of places that have lost pigment. I put on those places a tinted tanner.
Thx for this tip. So do u put anything on cotton swab when u use it over spots ? I stopped self tanning for this reason my spots got darker
Such good information. I am a huge self-tanner person and do so many of these tips and tricks to get that sun kissed look. xo
That tanning mitt hack IS GENIUS DOM! I was so fed up with buying those sponge 🧽 back applicators that ALWAYS break within a few months! Thank you❤
I love how detailed this is thank you💕💕💕
Thank you D! I always check your channel before buying any beauty items! Off to Ulta!!
I have never self tan because I didn’t think I need it and I’m happy with my skin color but now I’m starting to consider it. Great video as always. Thank you 🙏
I use moisturizer on my elbows, knees, ankles and tops of my feet very lightly before using my self tanning lotion and I don't get streaks. Of coarse efoliating is extremely important and shaving the day before. Prep makes a huge difference.
I'm excited to GET my tan on! Thank you for the inspiration.
Happy Mother's Day Dominique!
Ahhhhh, now I know how to tan my back! Great job, Dominique!
Ohhh just on time I was thinking of self tanning. Thank you Dominique, for explicit explanation of all different steps.
Have you tried Bronzed Cactus yet? I just did and I LOVE it. They have the face drops, a great exfoliating mitt, and a back applicator!!! I think they are running a Mother's Day sale, too. My daughter told me about them and so glad she did, it's the BEST I have ever tried.
Good Lord! You are a genius! Love the back tanning hack.
Thank you so much, Dominique! What a blessing for our skin that self-tanners have come such a long way. Silly question: When you’re spraying on your body, isn’t there an issue with everything around you (bathroom tiles, furniture, etc.) also getting sprayed and „tanned“?
Yes, I usually spray in my shower, but for the sake of this video, I had to do it in a more open space
Way to sacrifice the bedroom carpet for us all. I spray tan in my shower too. You’re the best! I felt like I just spent girlfriend time hanging out in your bathroom. Ha. So fun! I just ordered some of the products. Thank you my friend.
Wow all the different shades so pretty thk you for showing us how to apply them but what to do before applying it 👍👍I like the ones that you can mix with a moisturizer 👍easy for me .
Thank you Dominique. It looks easy always looking for new ways to soft hair thank you.
This is the perfect tutorial, thank you so much!!
I’ve never done tan in can before but I am definitely trying it this year! Very informative, thank you.
The mitt over the scrub brush is BRILLIANT! Why didn't I think of that?
Thank you! I love the info about the improved scent! This is so helpful
Such a great video! What I find most challenging is wether to put self tanner on my hands and feet.I feel sometimes it looks obvious that you self tanned if not including your fingers and toes but also very difficult to make it look natural.
I have the same question. Could you please, dear Dominique?
I love the back brush idea to put the tanning products on! 😎
