I can’t thank you enough for turning me on to Tanogist self tan!! Oh my gosh! I have tried so many self tanners and they always looked fake! I’m 72-years -old and have Lupus, so I cannot be in the sun much. My daughter saw me today and said, “boy, you must be outside a lot now, your tan is beautiful “!! My daughter, like her mother, tells it like it is and will point out flaws in the self tanners!! It has been amazing and by following your instructions for problem areas it turns out perfect!! I use the medium and get a very dark tan! Maybe it’s the old skin, but I couldn’t go much darker! The lotions and creams make a huge difference! Thank you, thank you!!💕❤️💋. You are my hero! Stay safe! ❤️

[@AbbeyYung]

That is so amazing!! My mom will point out my self tanner flaws too 😂 you are so sweet thank you for the kind comments always ♥️

[@matthewthaddeus6673]

i guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I somehow forgot the password. I love any assistance you can offer me!

[@lynnelgin905]

Love that you talk intelligently throughout and don’t have annoying music while you show application. Your vids are awesome!

[@es5327]

What do you do for your face application? The same product or use something else ?

[@emilynicole121170]

Me: watches the entire 26 minutes and 34 seconds of this video all about self tanning. Also me: has never and probably will never self tan because I’m too lazy

[@caseyyy6985]

Emily Robinson literally me lol

[@AbbeyYung]

😂😂😂 I feel that laziness in my soul

[@rhaps2008]

Me too and just watching the whole back application made my arms and back cry lol!

[@melissalitwinski311]

Me too. Haha! I just love the indepth instruction, just in case....

[@deann3621]

Haha! Me too!!

[@jojoduchannes3861]

Honestly, I started self-tanning last year and had no idea where to start and this video saved my life!!! My tan looks so good, no orange fingers or toes, it lasts about 2-3 weeks and looks amazing. I use the coco and eve mousse and I love it. Thank you so much❤

[@aproposheather4796]

Soooooo helpful to a newbie to self tanner. I’m over the Jergens gradual tan and want to graduate. I never would have thought to start with legs and do arms last so that was super helpful. Thx 😘

[@christa2047]

Bought and used Tanologist based on your recommendation and loved it! As a self tan failure this video and your recommendations have converted me!

[@peytonpoindexter3240]

I always appreciate how thorough and descriptive you are! Every time I think I may have a question- you always end up answering it later on the video! I found you from tik tok awhile ago & your tips & tricks have saved my life!! Sooo love you & your content! thanks for all you do! ☺️🤗🥰

[@xXDangerProneXx]

Just discovered your channel & I love your reviews, they’re so detailed! And your personality is great!! Thank you for being awesome 😎

[@shelbyazure4201]

Thank you for this video! There are so many different videos on how to apply self tanner and this ones been the best for me. My tan now looks amazing. Your feet, hands, knees and elbow tips worked out perfect for me. Thank you for these videos!! I'm a huge fan of your hair vids 😊

[@janettebolin2991]

So informative and thorough! Thank you so much!

[@sammylove14]

Ah yes! I needed this! I am planning on maintaining a self tan routine and am always worried about when to use a body scrub to avoid getting obvious patches of pale skin and tanned skin.

[@shihoneyy]

Do you use any self tanner on your face? If so how do you apply

[@rochellevossman271]

Thank you for all your work, much appreciated!

[@amandawhite723]

So extremely helpful. I am just as pail, avoid all sun first because I suffer from Lupus, and other health issues that literally make me ill, and even a little sun can blister my skin. It's very painful. I had almost givin up on having that lovely tan that makes you look healthy and feel good until I came upon your self tanner showdown, that got me re-interested and binge watched your tanning videos all day. Thank you. It was all helpful and I will definately use a few of your links for the products I'm interested in trying.💜

[@JASMINEJADE]

love these vids esp. cause you don't HAVE to watch, you can just listen and sometimes I like just listening while working

[@junekruse3521]

Great Video. For those who have dark or reddish marks or scar on face or body, self tanner darkens those areas as you know. I use a thicker concealer (I use Sephora brand in a little tube think it’s discontinued) but, any thicker concealer will work, I dab on those areas with a q-tip or fingers before self tanning. It works great. 🌼

[@rebeccalynn736]

This was awesome thank you!

[@LisaAnnRay]

What do you do for your face? Mineral oil in your lotion will also break down a tan. The tanning salon I used to go to told me that. Yours seems great! I’ll be trying it. 😃

[@Aryah_Lynn13]

I use the exact same product because of your video...thanks so much Im new to self tanner and I found your videos before I started n u saved my life...thanks again

[@sc9573]

i love ur content so much. thanks for going through everything

[@jillarmstrong556]

I LOVE your channel and appreciate your videos SO MUCH!!! THANK YOU!!! You are my favorite!!!

[@jdemaestri4300]

Excellent information and well done,thanks much!

[@kell4598]

I always take a dry rag to the knuckle areas, knees, elbows...etc..... works great!!

[@cheriebrouillette5917]

Absolutely love your reviews! So very informative!! Have you tried the tanoligist extra dark with the colors guard in it yet?

[@lindsbic]

Can you elaborate on how you layer your tan? Like do you immediately start the whole application from toe to top as soon as you finish the first application or do you wait like 30 and then apply again? Do you layer hands and feet? Do you do the second layer before or after doing lotion and hands and feet? Does this differ depending on the brand of tanner you use? Sorry I haven’t found anyone else that talks about doing two layers and I’ve been wanting to but I’m scared looking like a whole ass Cheeto

[@oliviastrout4193]

i love the way you talk sm your videos are so goodddd :)

[@bethanyfannin9509]

Thanks for the video, super helpful. I would love to see a video about how to do soft curls. You know those little kinda verticals rings that are popular now? I feel like they can be worn all the way around the head, or they can just start halfway down and kinda look more effortless depending on what look you’re going for. I’ve seen you have your hair like that in one of your other videos, I think it was the one that led me to this video where you reviewed Coco&Eve

[@lindapowers6845]

Going thru all your tips to get the perfect summer glow❤

[@ginadavidson9536]

Hi Abbey I just absolutely love your channel and all your content you have taught me so much and I'm 57yrs old but the amount of research and knowledge you have regarding so many products is amazing. Thank you for your hard work btw I don't think you wear to much make up I love it you look beautiful.💖

[@gabl3400]

Very helpful!

[@feliciapoirier2329]

OMG I do the same every Thursday morning. I call it Tan Thursday's ;)

[@FuriedHearts]

A salicylic acid body wash would also work really well as an exfoliation prep step. Could combine it with the physical exfoliation glove or wash cloth as long as you're gentle for a maximum exfoliation

[@meganhaase698]

Loved your video! I used to do tan beds-I probably for way too many years and I thought I would try self tan although I’m so busy and barley have enough time. I got coco and eve! I was told tanologist and a couple others you stated! I was wondering when you said you sometimes do two layers…how long do you wait for apply for the second layer? Thank you!! 🤗🤗

[@sammmmyy739]

Hi! I just wanted to say I love your videos, I used self Tanner for the first time and your tips and tricks really help! I used tanologist it worked amazingly. I have a question I was hoping you could help me with. I know it last about a week. I was wondering if I can reapply before it completely fades? Will this work, or will come out patchy? Thank you for all the helpful content 😊

[@RadicallyFreee]

I just tried tanologist for the first time, I’ve tried the ulta and Jergans and I HATED the smell so much I scrubbed it off immediately. This Tanologist water mist is a must have. I don’t think I can live without it now.

[@sheilabentley2919]

Loving all of your self tan videos! So helpful and informative. But what about sunscreen? Will it mess with the tan?

[@callan02ish]

I have some pigment spots on the sides of my face. Tanner makes them darker, obviously. What I do is take a Q-tip, dip it into makeup remover ( or toner) and put it, VERY carefully!, on those spots. It works well, but you have to just get it on the spots not the skin around them.

[@amberzasylum6588]

I am currently getting into self tanning. I am SOOOO pale!!! In order for me to get a tan I have to burn and then after it turns into a tan. I really didn't know too much about anything I could do, but lately I've been exploring and I have become very interested in self tanning. It seems like the benefits are super great! I just watched your comparison video and it's so great that you have tested them all for us. I am very curious on if you continue your self tan throughout the winter months or is it just something you do during the summer. Also do you put self tanner on your face?? Do they make separate stuff for that?

[@lorraineharris6147]

Have you ever tried the sosu gold dark tanner? I feel like you would love it!

[@meganadams9888]

I picked up the tanner and the lotion, and the shaving cream yesterday at Target. I am in love with it all! Thank you for your suggestions. I would love to private message you about my skin, and my journey if thats something you would be okay with.

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

Great self tanning routine, Abbey!❤️

[@AbbeyYung]

🥰🥰

[@jamiecrockett4864]

Have you tried the Bondi Sands tanner? If so, thoughts on their products for fair skin?

[@californiadesigner.7245]

i realize this is like one year old... but I was laughing pretty much the entire video. You remind me totally of one of my daughters and we laugh all the time. You are HILARIOUS! Thanks ~ good ifo too! Really helped me before the Maldives on a special trip coming up.

[@jastohrr]

Hey I love your videos! Do you use a different tanning product on your face or do you use the same for the body? Please let me know and thanks!

[@niyagross9575]

Have you seen the back self tanner applicators? Wonder how they work. I saw them on Amazon

[@Jen5914]

Great video! I know Bondi Sands express tan mentions to only use water (no soap) and pat dry after rinsing the express tan after only a few hours. I think this makes a big difference. The tan still develops. Typically, I leave it on 8 plus hours but in a pinch....I’ll leave the express on for a couple hours and only rinse with water until later that night where I use soap. 😀

[@AbbeyYung]

I need to try this brand!

[@cherylcox7693]

Thanks for this demo. Was really helpful.I just used Tanologist mousse. First time I am self tanning! 😅🙏

[@AbbeyYung]

Of course! Good luck 😊

[@LisaAnnRay]

Venus razors aren’t enough for me. I switched to men’s 5-blade razors years and GAME CHANGER!

[@amandawhite723]

I also buy mens razor's.. For some reason women's are more expensive. It's ridiculous. They get sharper blades and more of them And more razor's in total in a bundle pack then women. I guess " pink plastic costs more"🙄

[@azurabrumme5644]

Have you tried the Harry razors? Those are amazing!

[@carlahoney9206]

It looks amazing. I bought it too but should have watched this video first lol. Do you use on your face at all? 🌺

[@roxanneterry6810]

Really need these tips. Was avid tanner. Now dealing with per cancerous issues. Will definitely try your tips. Can I ask, between the exfoliation. Do u use a luffa in shower between? Or will that take the color off faster? Thanks

[@luxnailsbykc]

I cannot tell you how much I laughed when you talked about doing your back. My husband gets the same look from me when I can’t reach Lol

[@juliabara8499]

Do you apply the self tanner right after the moisturizer or do you wait a few minutes for the cream to sink in?

[@alisonclaireryan]

Abby can you make the application method itself into a short format? I pull this video up every time I tan (super infrequently) and a short version would be a godsend! Thank you!

[@CarolinaOats]

I’m ordering all of this but how do you tan your face and have that face tan? I saw in another video that you do not self tan your face so please help me. How do you apply your makeup to match up everything?

[@deborahhaberer7276]

Thank you. No questions because you were so thorough. 🌴

[@AbbeyYung]

🥰🥰

[@christiefigueroa7560]

What body wash works best? I use the same self tanner and I’ve noticed certain body washes take it off sooner.

[@alison4019]

This is super helpful! Which body gel do you use in the shower before tanning?

[@54jewls]

I've started using tanologist after watching your videos a few weeks ago and am way happier with it than the professional tan place I was going to! How often do you totally remove the tan and start from scratch?

[@MrsDogLover]

Once weekly

[@My6lvs]

Love the tips I also self tan ❤️

[@AbbeyYung]

Yay! ♥️

[@rachelb5739]

Can we have an updated self tan routine? Ty!

[@stayy_lokeyy]

i have the purple one i like the guide

[@susan4102]

Best razor in the world! I use rubber medical gloves inside the tanning glove.

[@vladalalac7314]

Do you use a shower gel when exfoliating with the glove or just water?

[@Agnaevi]

I’m sorry if it’s a stupid question but do you dry exfoliate? I always thought I need to do it in the shower… Dry sounds so much easier!

[@juliabara8499]

I heard that you should exfoliate and shave a few days before putting on self tanner because the skin regenerates right after exfoliating/shaving so the tan will fade faster. That's why you should wait a few days before you apply the self tanner. Is that true? Has someone tried that? Any advice?

[@Superprettyteacher]

Do you also use this on your face and neck? If not, what do you use instead?

[@Lisa-pn7nx]

Do you tan your neck, face and behind ears too? With the tanologist products

[@lisachen888]

Do you apply self tanner to your armpits and how much? Do you treat it like hands/elbows/feet etc with a very light touch?

[@angelinebiswas7611]

You’ve GOT to try glow pro tans 14% dha. It’s perfection

[@AbbeyYung]

ohhh I'm intrigued!

[@gabriellekent9977]

Such a helpful video thanks girl! Quick follow up questions! 1. Do you think the aveeno standard moisturizer is ok to use for hand barrier before applying tan to hands? 2. What are your thoughts on using the bondi sands gradual tanning milk to maintain a different brand’s tan? I.e bondi sands? Do you think that will mess with the color or do anything harmful? Lastly, just to be clear, if using a tan with color guard you would recommend taking a makeup wipe to hands and taking off 30 minutes after application? Do you also have to be very careful about touching water/washing hands for rest of time after that’?

[@overcomingobstacles8675]

Try the Billie razor, you will like it 200 times better

[@jennyhislop8270]

If I want to be darker, can I reapply 2 days in a row or would that make the tan look weird?

[@leslieingle9688]

Hey! What kind of shower gel do you use?

[@angeltrujillo23]

Have you ever tried epilating? It’s the best!

[@l.l.8022]

I'm sitting in my living room, butt naked under the fan drying after trying the drops for the first time, and yeah having put the drop/lotion combo on my knees and elbows so yay. Can't wait to see the monstrosity I wake up to in the mirror tomorrow 😂 live and learn

[@haleyfink6325]

Do you prefer the mouse or the water spray?

[@juleszimmer1210]

Use a back scrubber with a tanning mitt attached with a hair tie

[@Getthecasharizona]

The people in 2024 need an updated routine! 🙏🏻

[@brookeb2032]

I want to love Tanologist bc I prefer a clear self tanner, but it does not dry down at all on me. I did two layers and maybe that is it. How do you get it to dry on you?

[@TheExecutiveVA]

I've heard that if you self tan after shaving and exfoliating your legs you will see freckle spots from the tanner setting in pores. Doesn't that happen to you?

[@lorraineharris6147]

Also what shower gel did you use?

[@robinleequinones8805]

Hi..I always turn orange,I use medium.Does Abbey answer us here? I was looking for Abbey's facebook page?

[@Mrs.D1003]

I also saw your video reviewing Coco & Eve self tanning mousse. Which do you prefer? Coco & Eve or Tanologist? I currently use a brand with no color guide so I'm familiar with both. I would like to switch brands and I'm trying to decide which brand to purchase out of the two.

[@lindakoberna3465]

Coco and Eve is AMAZING.

[@claudiaaversa5823]

Hi, do you recommend tanning whilst I have gel nails already done? Please reply, thanks in advance 😊

[@rhaps2008]

Just wondering if you have tried any of the self tanner back applicator mitts or pads, my daughter does self tan and always always has me do her back so I wonder if I should buy her one of these?

[@AbbeyYung]

I tried the one from loving tan and didn't like it! It was tricky for me to use

[@jaimeanderson2993]

What about your face? Do you use the tinted drops?

[@oinkiepoo]

Since there are no color guard is there a higher chance of having streaks if we missed a spot or unevenly applied?

[@Mrstriplejranch]

Great tips! Thank you for the details! My only issue is my skin dries out too much during the developing part, considering it’s dry skin, and I live in a dry climate. So I find tanners that are a thick moisturizing cream, like Beauty by Earth, work better for me, but I’m probably an extreme case. I’m sure if I tried the drops with a heavy cream, it would work well, too. I just can’t go all day with nothing but mousse on my skin. I’ve been known to apply creams morning AND night. Desert over here, lol.

[@sportluver98]

What do you do for your face

[@cayleighmilam4262]

Can you try the tanlux mousse? I want to see what you think about it! It’s what I’m using now and it’s also a clear mousse. It’s expensive so I wanna see if this is a dupe for that!

[@AbbeyYung]

I’ll look into it!

[@kimberlylamperski7441]

I've tried both and I have to admit I keep buying the tan lux its hard to beat.

[@Megtaf97]

If I sweat a lot when I work out would this get streaky?

[@julinavarrete87]

How long after applying can I sit down will it spread to my couch

[@TheHairDr911]

Hey next tan show down. Will you include Ilmakiage sunfoam. You bronze and Dolce Glow😉. What ya think

[@nataliekraus7819]

Well I need to start doing this routine! Just put tanner over last weeks tanner... oops!

[@stayy_lokeyy]

thissss🎉🎉

[@kellinicole8609]

If you want a darker tan or one with a color guard Tanologist has an ultra dark shade at Ulta. I need the color gaurd cause I'm too lazy to do it without. 😆 Also, if I'm gonna take the time to tan I want to look like I have lived on a desert island for a year 🏝 The ultra dark Tanologist doesn't stain my clothes or sheets. I ❤ it!!!

[@AbbeyYung]

Omg amazing maybe I need it... 😅

[@hollyk2454]

I’m also using this tan and really like it! It’s so dark and lasts really well. I find it a little drying sometimes but am going to try the Cetaphil body cream! 💙

[@clarissanoriega6692]

do you not apply to your face too?

[@suzanneniemeier9899]

I read said to wait 24 hours to apply. So is that no necessary?
