Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 238 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the products for their natural-looking results, often noting that the tan develops into a beautiful, non-orange shade that fades evenly without streaking or patchiness. Many appreciate the pleasant scent, quick drying time, and non-sticky feel, which are common issues with other self-tanners. The products are also frequently highlighted for being gentle on sensitive skin, including those with eczema or psoriasis, causing no irritation or itching. Reviewers often describe the application as easy and smooth, leading to a flawless finish. Furthermore, the customer service team receives high praise for being incredibly helpful, professional, and quick to resolve any issues, enhancing the overall positive experience. However, some customers reported issues with the tan transferring onto bedsheets and clothing, despite claims of being non-transferable. A few other people also felt that the tan developed into an orange color or became patchy and scaly after a couple of days, requiring early removal. There were also mentions of the product taking a long time to absorb and remaining sticky, as well as some instances where the product came out green or did not develop color at all, particularly with the face drops and gradual tan.

this tan is INSANE

this tan is INSANE. i just ordered it for the first time after having my eyes on it for a looong while and i do not know why i didnt do it soonerr!!!!!!
when i tell you i have been searching high and low for a tan that does not stick to my scars and make them 10x more obvious and i have finally found it, i could cry.
when i got to my arm area i was fully prepared to do my whole 4step routine that i have to do all the time in hopes of my fake tan not sticking to my scars until i thought i'd just see how well it performs without doing so (i was fully prepared to have to wash it off and restart) AND IT DID NOT STICK. i am so over the moon i can not even explain it the only thing i am sad about is not purchasing sooner

Best tan ever

I started using Solskin about a year and a quarter ago, I will never look back. The most flawless tan i’ve ever used - I’ve been a weekly fake tanner for 5 years. The most perfect bronze colour, no orange tones whatsoever and smells lush.

Obsessed with this - thank you for being with SOLSKIN for over a year and making us part of your weekly glow routine. Five years of tanning experience and we still made the cut? We’ll take that as the highest compliment. Here’s to flawless bronze, zero orange, and that “smells lush” moment every single time 🤎

Holy grail gradual tan !

I’m quite a fair girl with ginger hair so when tanning I try to avoid looking orange. Solskin have perfected this !!!! Their gradual tan (fair to medium) is perfect for the pale girlies who want to look bronzed. The smell is gorg and the finish is beautiful I could never go back to using another tanning brand ! Highly recommend

Ginger girlies, bronzed glow (with zero orange in sight). Thanks for the love - SOLSKIN’s Gradual Tan (Fair to Medium) was made for exactly this kind of dreamy, natural finish, and we’re so happy it’s your new non-negotiable. See you never, other tanning brands 🤎

Tanning mousse and face tanning drops

I purchased the Very Dark fake tan, face drops, and mitt during the Black Friday sale after seeing the brand highly recommended. Unfortunately, I tried the tan twice and just couldn’t get on with it, despite following my usual prep routine. I exfoliated, shaved, and moisturised the night before, then applied moisturiser to drier areas before tanning.

The tan smells amazing and didn’t stain my bed sheets, which is a big plus. However, after washing it off, the colour only lasted about a day before it started to look patchy.

I do really like the face tanning drops and found them great for maintaining or extending a holiday tan. That said, I did notice they left my hairline looking quite orange, so they need to be applied carefully.

Overall, I was disappointed with the body tan but would still consider repurchasing the face drops with more careful application.

I absolutely love the tanning mousse…

I absolutely love the tanning mousse and tanning drops!! I have ordered these products several times. I have always had extremely sensitive skin and for the last five years, I have suffered from eczema. I use fake tan on a regular, and other tanning brands have always caused my skin to have a large flare up. Since using solskin this rarely happens! I have used solskin since it first got released and have never looked back.

I recently made another order for myself and for a Christmas present. This order got lost with Royal Mail, so I contacted solskin customer email. A lovely lady called Janice responded to me, and she has been nothing but amazing!!! She always gave me quick responses & I always felt 100% listened to, which you don’t normally receive from other brands. I already LOVE solskin as a brand, but since having the amazing customer service, it has made me LOVE the brand even more. Thankyou to Janice for all your help🩷

The customer service is amazing

The customer service is amazing. Janice on the team has been so helpful with my order and honestly so so lovely. It has been so nice to be in contact with Janice and I would 1000% recommend not only the products but also the customer service. Having a good customer service team definetly helps with the experince.

Just wanted to say you guys are doing an amazing job. I’ve tried so many tanning products in the past and nothing compares to your products. I swear by the tanning drops and tanning moisturiser. I’ve got an 11 month old so my pamper days are next to none.
