I have ultra fair skin. My skin tone falls somewhere between Snow White and translucent. I can go outside in the sun for 15 minutes and get a burn. I've even been told I glow in the dark.

With that said, St. Tropez is the first self tanner that ever looked like a REAL natural tan on me. Like most everyone else I have tried everything and always looked silly waiting for my newest mistake to wear off. I worked in a tanning salon years ago, and even then the color I got from tanning beds looked fake on me. People always asked if it was a bottled tan, and that was my actual skin color!

I don't smell anything when applying this. After any self tanner has been on for many hours it starts to product a scent. It's the exact same smell with all brands, because it's the chemicals developing. The only difference is what fake perfumey smell each brand tries to mask it with. St. Tropez doesn't give it any smell, so it isn't until MANY hours later, after the tan has developed (and when you should be in washing off the bronzer) that there is a smell.

In the last 2 years using this product, I have never had an issue with streaking, and I am not sure how you can. As long as the bronze mousse applied is covering your skin, than the area gets tanned evenly. The bronze mousse color itself will look streaky sometimes while applying, but that's what you wash off once your tan has developed. Don't plan on putting this stuff on and going out shopping for the day. It's something you will want to put on before bed at night so you can wake up, hop in the shower to wash off the bronzer and come out with a phenomenal brown tan.

* * * * My steps for the perfect St. Tropez tan for those with ridiculously fair skin: * * * *

1) Shower: At night, an hour or so before going to bed take a shower. Get a rag and some serious exfoliating scrub. The best are sugar or salt scrubs (this Tree Hut Shea Sugar Body Scrub, Coconut Lime is my favorite). They are coarse, but by taking the time to do this step the self tanner lasts a lot longer and doesn't get patchy after a few days as your skin naturally exfoliates. Be sure to get around the ankles, knees and elbows well.

2) Dry off well: Once out of the shower, dry off. Put on some PJ's or a robe and go do something for 15 minutes so your skin can start to fully get dry from the shower. This is a good time to do that last minute things. Check your Facebook, let the dogs out one last time, figure out what your wearing tomorrow, etc.

3) Application: Before starting with the self tanner, take a dab of some kind of lotion and apply a small amount to your elbows, knees and hands. This will help keep the tanner from over saturating this skin and keep everything looking natural. Assuming you also purchased a St. Tropez Tanning Essentials Tan Applicator Mitt, apply 3 or so pumps of the mousse to the mitt and begin applying to your legs. Once you have covered them, us what little bit is absorbed into the mitt to rub onto your feet. You don't need to be able to see the bronze mousse on them, trust me the tanner is there. Be sure to get between your toes and all the way to bottom sides of your feet.

Next pump more mousse on the mitt and apply to torso and arms. Last I apply to the neck and use whats left still absorbed into the mitt on my face. By the time you have finished your upper half, your lower half will be dry. Next wash your hands with soap an water (even using the mitt you'll probably still get a little on your hands) and dry them well. But then before rinsing off the mitt, rub the backs of your hands and wrists with the mitt to apply a super light coat of the tanner to them. Just like the feet you wont see it there, but it will develop and blend nicely.

Drying: By the time you have touched up your hands, the rest of you will be sufficiently dry to put on something to wear to bed. If it's a hot night, make sure to have a fan or air condition on so you don't sweat your tan off all night.

The perfect tan: The next morning you will wake up and the bronzer will probably make you look all dirty. Your face will look a mess and you will probably smell. I call this "going to bed with mud on". The bronzer will most likely look patchy or streaky, but not to worry just hop in the shower. You will see a bunch of brown going down the drain. Get out and pat skin dry. You will discover under all that messy brozer has developed the most gorgeous brown (not orange) tan. You will go in looking a mess and come out a tanned goddess (looking about 5 lbs thinner I might add, since tanned skin looks toner.)

After 3 or 4 days, repeat the process with the exfoliating scrub again. Your tan may look patchy after you exfoliate well, but you will be applying a fresh tan on top of it, so it won't be a problem.

TIP: On days where you want to give your tan a little boost in color, or you've waited too long between applications and your starting to get a little variation in your skins tan because of the skin naturally exfoliating, use some St. Tropez Wash Off Instant Glow Mousse 4oz. It's goof proof and can make a perfect tan look even more phenomenal.

With St.Tropes, now even us with pasty white skin can have a beautiful natural looking tan. ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars No hassle tan January 17, 2010
Size Name:4 oz|Amazon Verified Purchase
I really like this product. I've used it in the past and i was always happy with it. I stopped using it when i found it to be too expensive. I have quite pale skin and freckles so ive always had bad luck with with self tanners like this and they usually look too orange-so i've always stuck with the tanning moisturisers (which work brill too "dove"). I used this the first time without gloves and although the package says its ok -it's not! lol. I did have to scrub really hard a few times to take the colour off the palms of my hands.
I took a shower and exfoliated my skin top to toe. I then dried off (completely)and waited a few mins. I then moisturised my ankles,knees and elbows (i didnt do my face but if you do make sure you moisturise the hairline and put vasaline over your eyebrows so it doesnt stain them).
Then i put on some walmart bought latex gloves (you can prob buy them anywhere quite cheap and they're disposable)and pumped a few squirts of the product on my palms. It's always best to start from the feet upwards section by section ...ex: calves, thighs,buttocks,stomach...etc.
The great thing about this one is that it doesnt go on clear...it has a tint to it already so you can see where you've missed or where there is more or less andyou can add , ALSO you have a tan showing straight away even though the actual look develops over a 4hr period.
It dries within a minute so try not to get dressed straight away. It also says try not to sweat or get wet for about 4 hrs so its probably best to put it on before bed- a tip i use is i put a bit of talcum powder in creases that could just get naturally worn (inside of elbows and behind knees)but wait for the product to fully dry first. After 24hrs take a shower and you will have a great natural looking tan.
It does last thats the great thing but the smell is just stillthe smell of fake tan...so i smell like a cookie after ive applied it..but you can daily apply your usual moisturiser so the smell does go.
Hope this helps! :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Great product, just a bit on the expensive side June 16, 2007
Size Name:8 oz.
What I have read about this mousse is true - it does give a natural brownish tan, with no hint of orange. Application was easy due to the tinted mousse, as you could see any spots that you might have missed. Color developed within three hours, and the yucky DHA smell wasn't as bad as other products I have used. My only caution with this mousse is to use some latex gloves to apply it - it WILL turn your cuticles a strange brown color, even if you scrub well afterwards and use a tan remover. So do yourself a favor and use an applicator or gloves to put this on.
