I love this tanning lotion, not only am I of Irish descent and is very faired skin but my skin is ver sensitive to products. I used Paint It Black and it was awesome I tanned in a couple of sessions and I didn't have to worry about skin irratation. The smell is incredible and it leaves your skin silky smooth to the touch. After using Paint It Black I will never go back to normal tanning lotion. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!!!

my friend introduced me to this. i love it, i use it both at the beach and at a tanning salon. if you are familiar with bath and body works it smells like warm vanilla sugar lotion.

I absolutly love this lotion! I've had the hardest time getting my arms to tan and catch up with the rest of my body, I started using Pain it Black the day it came in the mail and after only using it a week my arms have fully caught up with the rest of my body and are actually getting darker! Another benifit of Paint it Black is that it doesn't have that tale tale smell of tanning beds, it has a suttle fresh scent to it! I am planning on purchasing more when I have finished this bottle!!!

I burn very easily without tanning lotion, but when I use this lotion, I don't burn at all and I get a dark tan. Other lotions will turn you orange, but this one does not.

When you first get out of the bed you look great, but it fades so quickly! My 3x bronzer (Hempology) works better and was much cheaper. Very disappointed, because I don't normally spend this much on a lotion. HOWEVER, the silicone emulsion makes your skin feel awesome. Sometimes I layer this with a better bronzer just for the extra skin goodies.

I've used this for the past couple of weeks and the results are just amazing! I was ecstatic the first time I used it and have continued to darken even further. I am also Irish with freckles and usually burn. This gave me the natural deep tan that those blessed with better pigment than I have had. It smells great and I'm super picky. I can use less of this product because it goes on so smoothly too. I'm placing another order for 3 more bottles for my friends and family. I highly recommend this lotion. I just love it!

My friend told me about this tanning lotion because I was already using back in blaque (which is also awesome) and she said it will give my tan an instant boost. So the first day I tried it I was very happy, so then the next day I put the paint it black on about 15 minutes prior to tanning and then right before i got in the bed i put on the back in blaque and WOW talk about being tan! I looked amazing, and the best part was, was that I was NOT orange! Great product!!!!!

DO NOT BUY FROM GREEN WEB.

I purchased Paint it Black from green web and I clearly received a fake, substituted product.

There was only a piece of scotch tape over the top of the bottle without any kind of seal around the top or between the bottle and the top.

After five sessions in a tanning booth using this product with little to no results, I decided to only put the lotion on certain parts of my body and the rest of my body was lotionless. Guess what? No difference between the two.

Green Web, in my opinion, is clearly selling fake or substituted lotion. I emailed Amazon and Green Web complaining about the lack of a seal on the bottle and I got absolutely no response.

Maybe this lotion works well but just make sure you buy it from a reputable dealer as I clearly got a fake product.

I have never gotten darker then I was with Paint it black 50X. This tanning lotion also gives me more moisturization then a bottle of hempz.. sometimes I just put it on for that alone. I swear by this stuff!

Let me tell you guys about my experiences with this product...first off..I'm a guy..I wanted this product to get a pretty good jump on the tanning season..and living in Southern California in April that's pretty easy to do. When I started using this product... I was by no means dark, but definitely had distinguishable tan lines. I have fair skin (burn rather easy) but also tan rather easily. I will also state that I do not use tanning beds, only the real sun.. so I cannot comment on what beds would be like (but I'm sure they would work better or at least as good). First off...I see lots of things about people saying it smells like flowers...or it smells like burnt hair (lol).. Well my bottle smells like sugary vanilla... if it doesn't smell like something ants would want to invade...then it probably isn't real.. Also the consistancy is more of a tan color and its the consistancy of an average lotion...its not super thick and its DEFINITELY not watery. When I've used this product outside...after I'm done tanning it smells exactly like when I put it on..you just smell like vanilla ice cream...I don't know how body chemistry can make this product smell like burnt hair...or menthol..or any of the other crazy things here unless the solution was fake. The product works decently well..it will get you darker...but only maybe as dark as you would get in 6 sessions outside over the span of 4. I've learned that this product does not work very well if you put tanning oil on first... so with that said for best results you would have to go SPF-free using this product outside...which I wouldn't recommend for very long (maybe 30 mins on each side at most). I got better results also by leaving the product on for 3-4 hours AFTER tanning without washing it off. I did not find that this product causes streaks..but I definitely would put more effort into making sure its even and smooth than I would with basic tanning oil just to be sure... and use common sense..do not use this product on your face...use a more natural face bronzer or just let it be slightly different colors and let it be.. I personally use Crystal Faces by Australian Gold and my face is a bit lighter but its very natural in color.

So things you may have learned from review.

1) This product smells like Vanilla Ice Cream, or something very sugary vanilla that ants would like.
2) This product is NOT watery, its tan-ish in color and has the consistancy of an average lotion.
3) This product WILL work outside.
4) This product works BETTER outside without sunscreen (atleast in my experiences, if you put sunscreen on I'd give it a full hour to dry so you make sure the bronzer can still absorb completely).
5) After use this product smells exactly like it does when applied.
6) This product WILL make you tanner in less time, but think something along the lines of "Ill get tan in two days what I normally would in three", not some ridiculous "I used this product for 10 minutes and now am darker than people in the Carribean." ....atleast if you're using it outside, can't really state results of tanning bed.

I would say also that this product doesn't last maybe as long as you would wish it would.. I would say you may can get 15-20 full body uses out of one bottle, but don't expect it to last all su mmer. I'll probably give this product 5 stars because it was as I expected...it smells nice..it definitely works better than not using it..and its a very good price (considering what you get is actually real).

Hope this helps..I tried to cover things that were my questions when I gambled on this product initially.
