When I first squirted the SugarBaby Bronze Radiance Instant Glow Wash Off Bronzing Cream out and started applying it it looked alarmingly dark, but I found it spreads into a beautiful shimmery glow which you can build up as little or as dark as you like.
The bronzing cream didn't seem to have much of a scent (it has a natural fragrence) and does fade away or rub off so I'd recommend building it up more than you think you need to.
This SugarBaby Bronze Radiance Instant Glow Wash Off Bronzing Cream ticks so many ethical boxes - Sugarbaby is against animal testing and this product contains no parabens, sulphates, animal ingredients or other nasties.
I love the design of the tube - opening from the bottom means you don’t have to squeeze it too hard with a single hand to get it out and you can snap it closed against your body when your other hand is in a mitt covered in bronzing cream.
While one of the benefits of this product is not having to wait for your tan to develop, I found it still rubbed off on tighter clothes when I got dressed even when my skin felt dry to touch.
I thought better than to wear a white tee and it didn’t noticeably rub off on my sheets overnight when I forgot to shower after using it, but when I accidentally dropped some product on a discarded pair of grey trackies on my bathroom floor and the stain remained after washing.
On the plus side it's great that the SugarBaby Bronze Radiance Instant Glow Wash Off Bronzing Cream does wash off easily straight away rather than requiring the efforts needed to get rid of a patchy fake tan!
I'm extremely pale, and when I first squeezed out the cream onto the mitt provided, I was a little concerned at how it would look on my skin. But as I applied, I could see my worries were unfounded. You are in control of how much to apply, and can add more colour if so desired. I started with one application and loved the result. A second application does darken the skin noticeably, but still gives a natural look, so worth doing if the holiday tan is what you desire.
The package is a generous 200 mL, and the tube is very pliable and easy to squeeze, so the cream comes out readily, but thick enough that it doesn't go everywhere. The cream glides on beautifully, and stays spreadable for enough time to rub it in evenly over your skin. Within a few minutes, it is dry enough to dress and be on your way. The light coconut scent is really pleasant and never turns into that strange chemical smell so many fake tans produce, and it leaves a slight glimmer to the skin which makes your skin look amazing.
I absolutely ADORED this new bronzing cream. It did everything it said it would and more. I'll be saying bye, bye to my old fake tans and stocking up on this gorgeous product from now on.
Thank you for choosing me for to test this product, BR Team. This is simply one of the best fake tans out there.
Tips: If you want a darker tan, apply a second coat 15 minutes after the first but apply sparingly and build up.
