Review: Yes... yes... yes! I am jumping for joy because my skin is looking browner and more beautiful than ever thanks to my all-time favourite self-tan brand, Bondi Sands. In 2012 I fell in love with Bondi Sands' dark and light-medium tanning lotions and thought that my skin could not look any better but their mousse-like Self Tanning Foam has outdone the lotion in so many ways. While their lotion goes on instantly and dries in two minutes, Self Tanning Foam instantly leaves the skin with colour as well but seems to go on even darker and lasts on the skin a couple of days longer. The longer this formula is left on the skin, the darker it will go so try to wear it through the day for at least six hours for best results. As the dark Self Tanning Foam is really brown, I would recommend this colour for tanned or olive skin tones. For those with fair skin like me, I recommend applying to the legs and using the lighter tone on the arms, neck and chest so that you do not feel overdone. It will also help you match your foundation a little easier because this way you will only need a bit of bronzer over the face to warm up your foundation and match the skin. The scent reminds me of Hawaii - coconuts and tropical references, however my work colleague thought I was eating finger buns which is certainly not a bad thing! For less than $20, Self Tanning Foam is so worth the money and will last a while because two pumps should do each leg and one pump per arm. You really do look like you have spent the day bronzing at Bondi Beach... although you can be confident that your tan is free from UVA rays!

LOVE, love, love! I have been a Bondi Sands consumer since they launched a few years ago - first using their tanning cream and then the original tanning foam. 3 years on and I am yet to be disappointed with the Bondi Sands fake tan because it is truly the best fake tan on the market. The tanning foam glides over skin with ease and it is easy to see which areas have been missed thanks to the tinted formula. The tanning foam smells like coconut and summer with only a subtle fake tan scent (I give it bonus points for that because hubby hates the typical fake tan scent). The colour is fantastic: dark, natural perfection. One or two applications will help you achieve the perfect intensity, but for a super bronzed and beautiful deep tan, applying daily will do it. For best results try to wear the tan on skin for 6 hours before  washing off the excess (if the formula could work its magic in 3 hours that would be perfect). Bondi Sands Self Tanning Foam is really good value for money too because a few pumps will go a long way and the results are second to none.
