My Review

I seriously DID not see that this tanning lotion was for a man before I asked for a sample of it. I opened the package at the tanning lotion, looked down and seen “MADE exclusively for MEN”..

BUT, I was going to a doctor appointment RIGHT after and only brought the sample, and didn’t have time to go all the way back home.. so I said “WHAT the heck"?” and went ahead and  used it anyway! LOL.

I opened it and noticed how pretty the coloring of the tanning lotion was. How amazing the consistency of the lotion was, and how well it spread. I had a little left of a sample pack after lotioning up my ENTIRE body. I like a lotion that doesn’t need A TON to be used! That way when you decide to buy an entire bottle, you know it will last you a longer amount of time!

I could immediately smell that this was for a man. It smelled JUST like a man’s cologne. It wasn’t strong or overpowering though, it smelled incredible actually. LOL. I didn’t mind smelling sexy.. There was absolutely no burnt after tan smell—which some lotions DO have! Smelled just as incredible coming out as I did going in!

The lotion is SUPERRRRRR moisturizing! I like lotions that I can use without an after tan moisturizer. I mean—you will NEED to use one further along the day to keep your skin moisturized even if your lotion is moisturizing. The healthier and more moisturized your skin is the better it will tan and the longer your tan will last. That’s the reason I stay away from lotions that seem to dry out my skin!

I noticed like 45 minutes to an hour later that I was already darker. It is a GREAT, quick bronze! It has a great silicone based bronzer in it, I could tell! It is a top notch lotion, if YOU have a man looking for an exclusive lotion JUST for MEN, then this is definitely what he should get (OR you should get for him, hint hint).

Buy It: Mr. Big Time retails about $60 for a bottle and $5-$7 for a sample packet!

My Review

The color I get from this lotion is absolutely DIVINE. There isn’t any lotion that can boost a quick color like Boost PINK for Women! This lotion brings ON the compliments.

Whether you’re a beginner tanning looking for a quick boost or an advanced tanner looking for something to push you over that plateau your stuck at, this is definitely a lotion to add in the mix!

When I first opened the bottle, I noticed a perfume smell, which was quite nice. The lotion is thick, light brown and goes on well. It has a lot of bronzers in it, so make sure you wash your hands after you’ve applied this to your body so your fingers and palms aren’t brown after.

I love that this lotion doesn’t give off an “orange” color like some intense bronzers too. I’ve never used an indoor tanning lotion that also blended sunless tanners in the mix with tanning salon tanners, it brings out MAJOR color.

Make sure you don’t shower for at least four hours after you tan when you’re using a lotion with so many bronzers, because your skin needs time to let them develop before you wash them off.

It isn’t streaky either, just make sure you’re rubbing in circular motions all over your body. AND make sure to use less on your ankles and knees. Bronzers (especially sunless) will tan your knees and ankles quicker than the rest of your body, so make sure you go lightly on those parts!

It leaves my skin so soft and silky! AND even though it has so many bronzers, they never rub off on my clothes, I can get out of the tanning bed and put my clothes on without worrying my clothes are going to be stained!

This is a top A++ lotion. I really enjoy using it!

My Review:

I was super excited to get Ooh La La at the Mansion in the mail. When it came, I couldn’t get over how pretty the packaging was. It comes in a dark pink bottle, with a picture of lace twisted around the top of the bottle. EVEN the top of the bottle is designed- It looks like a Diamond encased in gold—how pretty!

I’ve been using this tanning lotion for more than two weeks now, and I am in LOVE with everything about this lotion. I already had a base tan before using this, so I do consider myself an advanced tanner.

The first time I opened this bottle, I fell in love immediately. Usually tanning lotions smell good BEFORE you use them, but after they seem to smell like burnt cinnamon or burnt skin. This doesn’t! This stays fresh and smelling amazing even after tanning.

I love that it stays smelling fresh and fruity, because usually I have to cover the smell of the tanning lotion (after tanning) with my after-tan moisturizer. This one I can just put the moisturizer on my feet, throw my clothes and shoes on, and go!

I don’t even need to put after-tan moisturizer ON when I use this tanning lotion. It is infused with Exotic Neem and Evening Primrose Oil to give the most luscious moisturized skin EVER after tanning.

Usually my skin starts to dry out before I even get out of the tanning bed. SO I put lotion on then. Then later in the day, my skin will become dry (and look ashy) again, so I’ll put the lotion on again. And then after I take my shower for the night, I’ll put it on again. I was going through after-tan lotion pretty quickly at that rate.

This lotion is infused with Vitamins A, C, and E which are natural skin moisturizers, healers, and smoothers. It is also infused with pomegranate, Cranberry, and Grape Seed to help your skin keep it’s youthful glow!

If you see in the picture above that the color of the lotion is brown, this is because it has INSTANT bronzers in it. I could tell from the very first tanning session that this is an amazing bronzer. My brother-in-law and sister-in-law were at the house visiting Adam one day when I left for the tanning bed. After I got back he said “You’ve already darkened a shade.”

He wasn’t lying either. I HAD darkened a shade. Each time I go and use this lotion I get a shade darker. The best part is the tan looks absolutely NATURAL. This lotion has absolutely NO orangey color to it, and it doesn’t streak. I do wipe my fingers and palms on a towel before tanning because they WILL be brown when you get out if you don’t wipe.

Even my shins and feet are all the way bronzed without the streaking. Usually my shins don’t tan as well as the rest of my body—but because there are instant bronzers PLUS clear bronzers, it immediately bronzes and then continues to bronze overtime. The way my skin feels so nourished, moisturized, and absolutely beautifully bronzed after tanning- I FELL in LOVE and still love using this on a daily basis.

I have the type of skin that doesn’t peel or burn at all, so I CRAVE the tingle lotions. I love the heat off of it. My skin craves the burn. This doesn’t mean that my skin BURNS per say, but a tingle lotion helps the tanning process by bringing the blood closer to the skin for a deeper, darker tan.

I really love tingles mixed with bronzers because you get EXTRA dark very quickly. This is top of the line bronzer because it has a Purified Advanced Tanning Accelerator, 25X Black Bronzers (which bronze instantly), but it also has DHA Clear Bronzers which also help to further develop your tan (for the longer run)!
