amazing! saw immediate results right after getting out of the tanning bed. The girl working there was amazed at how dark I was and how fast it worked on me (I am fair skinned). This lotion smells great too, it smells like ralph lauren perfume. And the lotion as a moisturizer is FANTASTIC. it feels silky smooth and is extremely moisturizing. I highly recommend this lotion to anyone who wants to be tan very fast and cares about the health of their skin as well.

I just received this lotion today, and instantly fell in love. When i first applied it to my skin, it felt so soft and amazingly silky, even better than Black 20x. This is hands down, the best "smelling" tanning lotion i have ever purchased! and not to mention, the packaging along with the ligh-up stars, was super cutee! As for the scent, i would definately describe it as citrusy and fresh, which is a very nice scent for going in the tanning booth. I'm not a fan of the after smell of tanning, so having the fragrance from this product definately helps!

The only problem i had was that my shipping was delivered a day after the estimated delivery date, but i have a feeling it was partly the post office's fault, due to being inconsiderately SLOW.

I would definately buy this product again!!

I decided to purchase a packet of this at my tanning salon before purchasing an entire bottle, and I loved it!! I already own a few other Designer Skin lotions, including Black, so I had prior experience with the silicone emulsion formula. I was hoping Luminary would be even more moisturizing than Black, and I was not disappointed! Like Black, Luminary smells nice on your skin both before and after tanning, which I love because I frequently tan before work. Personally, I think it's silly to buy your lotions at the tanning salon, where you can spend up to three times as much money. I absolutely recommend this lotion to anyone who has hit a plateau, or even a beginning tanner, as it's safe for all skin types, and tingle free. Happy tanning!

ok so i tried this lotion today..yes it was velvety smooth, nice "perfumy" scent...not like most lotions, you know bananas, almond, coconut etc. I've only used it once and i have a nice base tan from using a much cheaper lotion that smells amazing (protan black). I have 14 karot gold on the way to my house from Amazon but i needed something for now since i ran out of my protan...so i bought an packet of this because everyone has been raving about it..the packet at my salon was 15.oo! However i did get a discount because i own my own tanning bed at home..sweet! the lotion is nice but i did not see a significant (sixty dollars worth) difference between this and others i've tried. sorry. just being honest..maybe it takes more than one try to see the difference..but i tried one called "white to black" and i was 2 shades darker within 24 hours! I guess i was expecting more from ds.

I have been tanning for years - I recently over the past 2 yrs slowed down on my tanning & I was so upset that I had to but it was recommend by my dermatologist & he is amazed at how well this product helps to cut down on the tanning & is now recommending it to his patients that refuse to stop tanning - I have amazing color from just going 2-3xs a week!! I highly highly recommend this product & I WILL NEVER PURCHASE FROM A SALON AGAIN! They offer this @ my salon for $125- I paid $44 here on Amazon!! Smells great & softens skin like no other lotion - No cooked skin smell @ all :D

Wow, I am truly impressed. I have tried literally dozens of lotions (thanks to Amazon) in search of one that actually works. This is it. The silicon is so soft on my skin and leaves me smooth all day long. The smell is definitely fragrant, but not overly perfumy like many other reviews stated. There is no after tan smell like burnt flesh- only a soft feminine smell kind of like Dolce's Light Blue. And the bronzer-the best part. This lotion gave me a gorgeous bronze color that is noticeable immediately. No streaks, no orange, just glowing color. I always purchase my lotions from Sealed Tanning Lotions here on Amazon. They come sealed as promised and that makes me feel confident in the safety of my purchases. I definitely recommend this lotion. Love it!

I go tanning a lot normally at least 4 to 5 times a week. so I was looking for something to boost my tan. after reading the reviews I thought I would give this lotion a chance. It did nothing for my tan. After using it a few times I started to look like I hadn't been tanning at all I stayed my some color. It does go on your skin nice but I don't see what all the talk is about it being such a great lotion. I ended up wasting my money. Since I was not going to use it and it was going to just sit in my cabinet I ended up giving to a friend to get her bass tan started.

Luminary goes above and beyond any other tanning lotion! It feels great on your skin and the moisture lasts for hours. It has the best smelling scent of any lotions I've used, and it seems like the color I get after tanning with it lasts for weeks.

I work at a tanning salon in North Carolina and this lotion is $110! I bought it for myself after many packets when I got it for 65% off and I love love love love it! I love the smell and I love how velvety and smooth my skin feels after each use. This lotion is just perfect and it gets you SOO tan!

This is a nice lotion but do not spend the full retail price on it: it's not worth it. It does make your skin feel silky smooth but the bronzers are nothing special and the scent is a little too perfume-y for a tanning lotion IMO.

I have nothing bad to say about this lotion, I just feel like it's over-hyped.

11/07/10, Update: I just want to mention that I just used a sample packet of Designer Skin Spellbound and I am convinced that it and Luminary and actually the exact same lotion. I don't even think the scents are significantly different. So don't pay more for Luminary if you can get Spellbound at a better price.
