Tango orange
For the price it was not vaule for money. Others may think differently. But I have never had such a horrible-looking fake tan. I did everything it said before using. My hands look like a 90yr old the tan was a medium. More like that dirty orange colour. I was only missing looped earrings, blowup lips and could of past as one of the fat slags comic book. I've spent more trying to get it off. Lucky it was on offer but still a nightmare. Spent 800 on a new mattress ruined with this crap. I've a good mind send you the cleaning bill. Stick to what u know ladies this is the tan from hell. Your reply is not worth the time and effort u put in to writing it.

Want to be tango this is the place for you
The product is quite poor I brought a medium tan I followed all the instructions. Only words I have this is use gloves under the mit. My hands are orange. And the tan it's self as not even touched. It's embarrassing with dirty stained hands. Waste of money think ill stick to my £7.99 brand

The wonder serum is the best self tan I’ve used. I’ve tried many over years. No streaks. Great colour and dries quickly. I use the serum drops at night for my face. Great all over tan all year round

Skinny Tan is by far the best!
I have bought a number of Skinny Tan products before including the Wonder serum and the Notox Face Drops - and I love them! They leave my skin feeling hydrated and glowing. The colour is great as it looks natural and doesn't leave any streaks. I have tried many self tanning brands but Skinny Tan is by far the best I have ever used. Thank you Skinny Tan!
Skinny Tan is my fave tanning brand!
Skinny Tan is my fave tanning brand!
Wonder Serum Express is the best, it's the perfect tan to apply in the morning for amazing results in the evening! AND you avoid stained sheets!
Really fast delivery too!
Would 100% recommend. Best ever.
I've tried SO many tanners over the years and I always go patchy, streaky or orange. Skinny Tan is honestly the best tan I've ever tried and I never go wrong, thanks to some of their amazing tools too. My favourites are the strawberry whip tanner which smells so good, and the Tan and Tone oil which is so easy to use - I apply in seconds before bed and it always develops flawlessly. Would 100% recommend. Best ever.
Excellent service
I had a broken nozzle on my tanning product which I emailed about to their customer service team. They responded very quickly and not only did they apologise but they also sent me a whole new replacement product. Excellent customer service and would definitely recommend
Issues with delivery. Beware!!
Issues with delivery. Beware!!
Ordered products for my daughter’s birthday. No sign of them appearing in time. Have contacted skinny tan twice only to be told they are waiting on their dispatch team coming back to them. The items are now not going to arrive in time and I’ve requested the order be cancelled and a full refund issued. No response yet.
Changed Formula??
Started using Skinny Tan a few years ago and absolutely loved it! Color amazing, dried quickly, no streaks. Purchased two bottles recently and the streaking is bad! I’ve used it three times (with the provided/recommended mitt) since my last purchase and the results were all the same: streaky and blotchy! If Skinny Tan changed their formula, it wasn’t for the better. Now I have to go on another search for a new self tanner. Disappointing!
They will steal your money but are very sorry for the inconvenience
They stole my money. Bought 3 bundles on sale on Dec 4th. Still received nothing and the customer service reps are very sorry for the inconvenience but have done nothing to fix the fact that I haven’t received it. They sent 3 mini mitts with an invoice for the bundles in a package that wouldn’t even fit the product. They haven’t offered a refund or to resend a new package even though I requested that multiple times. They stole my money and now I’m “waiting for feedback” bc the customer service reps are literally worse than the chat bot. They can’t give me my money back or refund me but they waste money on paying useless employees who do nothing but say sorry for the inconvenience over and over.

WOW I can’t believe these reviews with their delivery service! Iv just jumped on here to have a read as I’m having a huge delivery problem receiving my order placed 27/11/22 and still havnt received and they where a present for my daughter for Christmas! Nearly 4 weeks to the day and still nothing I’d paid £49.50 for my order so I’m not happy. Complete and utter joke!
Worst Tan Ever - Concerning Chemicals
I could not recommend this tan LESS. I have been religiously tanning every weekend for over 10 years - normally sticking to St Moritz as it’s affordable and I find it works best in my skin compared to other brands.
A couple of months ago I bought the blue skinny tan mousse in dark whilst in B&M as I noticed it was on offer for £7.99 and normally retails over £20. I recently ran out of my usual tan and decided to give this stuff a go last night. When I first started applying the tan I noticed the colour was a weird blue/grey colour but after some searching discovered this was normal for this stuff (colour-correcting tones etc) so it wasn’t a case of the tan being off or out of date. I’ll give the tan it’s due it has a nice smell and didn’t transfer onto my bed sheets, however that’s where the positives end. After tanning my face I started experiencing this disgusting taste in my mouth. Every tan I have ever used I have applied on my face paired with a facial moisturiser. The tan was giving off an acetone/battery acid taste that I’ve not been able to get rid of for HOURS, absolutely vile. I have never experienced anything like it with a self tanner.
I left the tan on overnight and washed it first thing in the morning. Can’t even say the taste is worth it as almost every single bit of the “dark” tan washed off and left me with the slightest bronze.
I came to trust pilot and see there’s numerous people talking about the taste from this tan dating back to 2021/2020. The taste genuinely made me concerned for having this stuff on my skin, I don’t know what kind of chemicals are in there but I certainly won’t ever buy their products again and the bottle I currently have is going straight in the bin.
Don’t waste your money!!!

Placed an order on 11/27 and received a shipping update on 12/1. Since that time there been no updates to my shipping. I have reached out to customer service several times and only received stock email responses. As of today it’s as if my order no longer exists on the shipping site, Yet the money is still withdrawn from my account. You would think ordering almost a month before Christmas would allow plenty of time for the gifts to arrive. I also agree that the free gifts advertise on the site with a bundle disappear at check out very disappointing as a long time skinny tan customer to receive no more assistance than I have. Beware of ordering! You will be out your money, your product, and your time!
Best tan I’ve found for my skin type
Have been using skinny tan wonder serums for the past year now as other brands and mousses really didn’t take well to my skin especially on the chest area, but their wonder serum goes on lovely and washes off leaving a lovely tan, I always do a second layer the day after to get the shade I want. Well priced as well, 2 bottles for £30 plus a free tanning mitt😍 Had an issue in the past where a bottle was leaking and they were to quick to resolve it sending a new bottle. Delivery has always been really quick too. Have yet to find a better tan (for my skin type).

I would definitely avoid buying anything from Skinny Tan. Purchased the tanning water which was on offer from £22.99 down to £17 applied it and it is so streaky and horrible. The only good thing is the fact it doesn’t have that tan smell but for the price you would expect it to come out not streaky. I used Island Paradise tanning water before which is half the price and does not go streaky.

No items arrived but £55 down
Ordered Tuesday 22nd giving enough time to need the items by today. However still no delivery said it had been dispatched Friday and then was out for delivery Sunday. I’ve tried to speaking with courier and were very unhelpful
Unfortunately used to rave about skinny tan but their courier choice lets them down won’t be ordering again
It doesn’t take 8 days to dispatch an item.
£55 down very disappointed will be disputing with bank seems skinny tan weren’t interested
