Brag Worthy Summer ~ Famous Dave’s Tanner Review and Giveaway [CLOSED]

I don’t like tanning in the sun or at tanning salons. First of all, I know it isn’t good for my skin. Second, it takes a lot for me to get tan (and most of the time I just burn). However, I really want to look tan, and that is why I was so excited to review Famous Dave’s Tanner!

Why Famous Dave’s Self Tanner is the best:

Famous Dave’s Moisture Tan™ cream lotion creates a ultimate golden tan
     without the need for age-robbing sun or tanning bed exposure.
While developing into a natural bronze glow, Famous Dave’s Self Tanner
     bathes your skin in the rich emollients of Aloe Vera, Sesame, and Jojoba,
     which soften and add healthy moisture.
Famous Dave’s Moisture Tan is fragrance-free.
Famous Dave’s does not contain the frequently used ingredients that cause skin to turn orange in color.
Famous Dave’s Self Tanner lotion and airbrush tans dries to the touch almost immediately as it is applied to the skin and you can dress within 5 minutes of the application.
The creamy lotion of Famous Dave’s Self Tanner is easy to distribute evenly on the body.
Famous Dave’s complements your existing tan by deepening and smoothing out your skin tones.
Famous Dave’s Self Tanner can be used year-round to give the most natural looking sun tan you will ever have from a bottle!

I have been using Famous Dave’s Self Tanner for a few weeks now & I am really enjoying it. I can definitely see a big difference when I use it, and my skin is not so pasty white! It doesn’t make my skin really dark, but I have only been applying it every 3-4 days and then I use a cheaper store brand in between those days so I can maintain the color. I am to the point now where I trust that Famous Dave’s won’t turn me orange, so I am going to start applying it more often & more liberally so I can hopefully achieve a darker color. The tanner is easy to apply and as long as I take the time to rub it in, it is not streaky at all.

The Truth About Self Tanners:

“Almost every tanner on the market today has at least one of these ingredients: Stearic Acid, Triethanolamine, and/or Mineral Oil. All these ingredients have high pH levels of over 6!  What does this mean? A pH of over 6 is the COLOR ORANGE!
Famous Dave’s Self Tanners do not contain any of these ingredients, yet gives you the most natural, beautiful, and soft tan money can buy.  Even if you don’t use Famous Dave’s Self Tanner, the pH measurement is the single factor that determines whether you turn orange or brown. So please check those labels for the three unsuitable ingredients mentioned above.”

I’ve used other sunless tanning products before and my biggest complaint about them is the smell (you know the smell I am talking about right?). Even after the application dries, I continue to smell the rest of the day and I hate that. Famous Dave’s Self Tanner is fragrance free so I don’t have to worry about it! Being fragrance-free virtually eliminates the smell on your skin, clothes, and in your bed! Yay!!
