MineTan At Home Spray Tan Machine | Lightweight, Airbrushed Finish, Streak Free Tanning Results, Vegan Friendly, PETA-Approved

I am totally thrilled with this device!My experience with tanning lotions, potions, and creams is mostly gradual tanning creams and sprays. I also have tried darker creams and always found it left me streaky and somewhat orange. The gradual creams really require daily use, and usually I do not love their smell. The benefit of the gradual creams is no streaks, but you have to commit to it and smell funny. By the way, my natural skin color is fair, but not like white white. I am not olive skinned at all, and I tend to have a natural reddish tint to my natural tan color. I have rosacea too to give you an idea of my complexion.I was nervous about having streaks or too much orange color when I used a spray tan. I have no experience whatsoever with spray tans either. I have never had one so I just assumed I would end up orangish and with a mess after using this. I had low to moderate hopes.The actual machine is a dream. So easy to use. It is light and has constant air blowing while it is on. Once you squeeze the trigger, that is when the product is actually dispensed. It also is almost completely and totally mess free. It is a snap to set up and pack down. I used it in the shower and found you would have to actively try to make a mess in order to make a mess with this stuff. I guess you could spill the bottle. But I thought maybe I would have to invest in a tanning tent thing, but that is not necessary at all.Originally, I was going to do only do my legs because I was afraid it would be a bad tan job, and if I needed to wear jeans for a while, I was ready to hide myself. I started with my legs, but then I got ballsy and decided to go for it the rest of the way.I set the machine to setting 2 out of 8 settings. You can not see the product being applied so much, but you can feel its coolness and you know it is being applied. If you hold down the trigger and spray one area too long, you can see more product. However, there was definitely a time where I was wondering if I was even applying anything or enough. I did my face just a TEENY TINY amount because I thought of all the areas to look stupid, that would be the one! Like I did not layer or respray my face. I only sprayed my face and neck gently once.I tried to do my backside myself, and found I definitely was not doing it evenly so I called in my 12 year old daughter for help. She sprayed my backside. Sometimes I could tell too much was applied to one area, so I used the mitt. By the way, I did not wash the mitt before first time using because I missed that in the instructions. Oops.We went over each area more than once just trying to get even coverage. When we felt that it was *enough,* I was surprised how little product we used. The small bottle it comes with says it should be good for about 5 tanning sessions. Maybe because I used it on setting 2 and did not overly spray, but I think I will get more than 5 tanning sessions out of this.I am sitting here with the solution still on. It has been almost 3 years. Oh yeah, by the way...this does NOT stink!! It also does not feel gross so I do not feel the urge to run to the shower after the 1 hour mark and wash it off. I will just rinse it off later after I do some errands. My skin feels clean, and I am a bronze babe!So far the end result has exceeded my expectations. Not only was application so easy that my 12 year old can help, and we have no experience, but it also does not smell gross. It almost has no smell when you use it. The color is really natural looking. NOT orange. My husband said I looked exotic like maybe I went on a vacation and got a tan while was there. This is exactly the color and look I was after. I could see if I went to a setting 7 or 8, I could get way darker, but this is perfect for me!I am in love with this new device and feel my future is better for having it!Thank you for making such a great product at an amazing price!
