Tanologist Application Demo & Comparison | Express Tan Water, Mousse, Face + Body Drops

[@jennifermahlau7561]

Just tried it and it's amazing. I used the spray but would prefer the mousse. That being said, I slept in it then I wore a white shirt the next day without showering it off. I worked out and was dripping sweat in the white shirt and there was zero transfer. Winner!

[@meowscutie]

Why didn't you wash after? You're supposed to, it shouldn't change the depth unless you really scrub fyi

[@sparkiekat7]

Yeah you gotta rinse off first no matter what 🤮 the feel, the smell...and then shower when home from the gym.

[@tracyrobbins8885]

My sheets are orange

[@JustJayGray]

I’ve heard that the drops are best performing for the face and neck! Since most people already use a moisturizer for skincare reasons, adding some drops to your face lotion can help that develop and look more natural since it’s mixed. You can use it for your body but you’ll go through the product quickly. Hope that helps!

[@andreaspencer8014]

I was just going to say that! The drops are nice to use with makeup brushes on your face to build really natural looking contour.

[@kcdguides-j3q]

That makes sense!

[@laurendukes3254]

I used the mouse and it was AMAZING! I normally use the Jergens lotion, but could not stand the smell and streaky results. The mouse applied perfectly, dried quickly, and gave me such an even, natural tan. Great review!

[@AbbeyYung]

Sooo good!

[@laurendukes3254]

@@something_1think487 I usually leave it on all day (6-8 hours). I have also left it on overnight and it looks amazing!

everything I know about self tan, I learned from you! Started using tanologist a few months ago on your recommendation.I love you!

[@AbbeyYung]

Yay!! So glad it works for you 😍

[@polarbearsrus6980]

Tried it last night... it is wonderful!!! Not much scent, dries fast and clear so not as messy. I exfoliated my whole body and have not one patch of orange, elbows and knees are beautiful. I love the shade, not too red, not too green, not orange. Best I've ever used. And, I put it on my face, I was so worried about that but it looks so good. I put a very thin coat and made sure I rubbed into my hairline a little. Thanks for reviewing.

[@fortyninergal7445]

Did you use a barrier cream on your hands, feet, knees and elbows? And how do you apply the barrier cream? All over your feet and hands, and do you rub it in? She also mentioned that she avoids putting the mouse on her hands, elbows and knees. Well wouldn’t that leave those areas untanned? And how do you do your ears? Thanks in advance.

[@amymims2362]

My elbows and knees did fine but scared to use on hands and not sure what to do with them since they are lighter advice please?

[@kasandrarodarte6224]

I’m buying tanologist just based on your videos! You explain everything so well and go over literally every detail! I currently use b. tan which is great but it does leave me fairly sticky and I too just want to go on about my business during the day without feeling nasty 🥴 no shade towards b. tan but I’m always looking to try something new!

[@sarahe.2395]

How did it go?

[@demidalton9555]

Yeah I’m the same. Like, who wants to gradually be tan? I want to be tan todaaaay. I’m so glad I found this. I’ve been buying loving tan for a couple years and I’m just so tired of paying that price. Bought the tanologist mouse today and excited to try it tomorrow! ☺️

[@jessie330]

How did you go, did you covert to tanologist ?

[@demidalton9555]

@@jessie330 It went well and I’ve repurchased since however, loving tans color can’t be beat in my honest opinion. I actually still use loving tan on my arms, legs, and feet because i think it applies a bit easier than tanologist. But I will for sure use the tanologist for my underarms and areas that tend to get sweaty, it has no odor and the loving tan has that smell she was talking about. So I use both most of the time. Lol For the winter I’ll probably just use Tanologist because it’s so cheat compared to loving tan.

[@cayleighmilam4262]

Omg the same arm thing happens to me too!! You’re the only other person I’ve seen talk about that!

I’m glad it’s not just me!!

Me too!!!! And loving tan also makes my skin super itchy!!

[@beautybystephanie7917]

The drops are best used for the face, neck, and chest. I use the drops on my face and they are amazing! I would recommend you do a video of the Tanologist Face and Body drops on just your face and neck to show how amazing great they are❤️

[@Megalish3]

Thank you for this video!! Im a rookie self tanner and i bought the mouse and love it. What would you do if you were traveling to a beach vacation for 8 days? if the tanner last 5-6 days would you layer it on mid trip or would you have to scrub it all off and reapply? Im stressed about it haha! any tips would help! ive been thinking about doing the mousse the night before we leave an bring a gradual sel tan lotion like lux unfiltered. im not sure how it would apply over it though. yikes!

LOVE LOVE LOVE tanologist! Please do a review on the violet based tanner by btan!🤩

[@MichelleRom]

Thank you so much for this review! Just purchased and I’m pretty nervous about using self tanner for the first time lol.

[@spacemooncake]

Thank you so much for making these videos! I was on a lookout for a good self-tanner but I absolutely hate the after day post smell- some of the self-tanners I've used had such a strong, disguisting smell! To a point I was very self-conscious while out in public. And one I used had smell that lasted for few days. 🤢 Fact tanology doesn't have it sold it for me. 😌

[@nielveirup1222]

Ahh love Loving Tan but have been looking for a cheaper substitute! Can't wait to try this out :)

[@AbbeyYung]

Yesss you will love!

[@shadyshay2343]

Loving tan was one of my least favorite tanners ever. Way expensive and overhyped.

[@prettybaked8930]

For the tanning water, I found that if you get a continuous spray mist bottle off of Amazon and put the water in that. spray it, you don't even have to rub it in. It is such a fine mist and it lays beautifully on the skin and it is so fast and so easy and it works!!

[@moniqueornelas9361]

You are so knowledgeable and I am now such a big fan of yours !! Thank you for all your amazing videos about self-tanning!! I'm a newbie!! I love how the Tanologist mouse developed on my upper body (left on for a total of 8 hrs and reapplied at about 4 hours) but my legs (especially my lower legs) just didn't develop as well. How do you feel about using another application on day 2? How many days in a row do you think you can use this without getting too spotchy?

[@aprilsexton893]

I use Jason's vitamin E creme, I put half the bottle of drops into the tub of creme, it did not streak, no patchy areas, and was building day by day. I also had a bad experience with my hands turning awful orange and I scrubbed them with bleach.

[@gatinhatinytigre]

Please no one else scrub your body with bleach lmao you can remove tanner with baking soda and lemon juice

[@alyssamarie9380]

I would love it if you would do an all Vita Liberata comparison for self tanner. I personally love the phenomenal mousse but I have never tried the clear one or the newest elixir option. I don't love their normal mousse or lotions they are a bit orange to me also the ten minute tan is a bear to blend in. Please review the Phenomenal mousse, the new elixir and the clear options. Since you love Tanologist I am curious to see how you like the clear mousse by Vita Liberata. If you layer up the Phenomal mousse for two or three days in a row it gets darker and last for two weeks. At least it did on me in Vegas swimming everyday.

[@erikalynnn4440]

Love this product have been using it for years it’s the only thing I will use now. Love love it and I never use to use tanner but this is all I will ever use .I did buy it off Amazon a few weeks ago and feel that it wasn’t as good it came from a different supplier so I will continue to just buy it from Ulta Beauty if I can get it seems to sell out so quick I use the dark mouse and face tanology never had a problem there with the product. So when I can afford some more I’ll be buying some asap.

[@rileysheedy6426]

Unfortunately there is a lingering smell. Like most tanners. I have showered twice since applying and I still smell it. Also the “ light “ once is not that light. And I am a little orange. If you mess up it won’t come off with rubbing alcohol.

[@jastohrr]

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

[@kellinicole8609]

I love the Tanologist ultra dark or extra dark with a white bottle and purple cap. I ordered mine from Ulta. I LOVE it!!! 😍 And it has a color guide that still doesn't transfer to everything. Maybe that one would be dark enough without extra layers.

[@AbbeyYung]

Ohhh I didn’t realize they had a product with a color guard! I’ll have to check it out!!

At about 12:14 you say that none of the loving tan products leave a bad scent but right before that you say that they have a stink that lifts for 24 hours. I don't want to purchase anything that has a stink and I'm not certain if you made an error or not.

The drops are designed to be used on the face, but I'd suggest go a little lighter on your face than your body because naturally your face tans less.

[@elementalpedia]

The drops I solely use for my face. I add 14 drops into my jar of moisturizer that I use on my face which is Cerave. Only for my face. I use the dark tanologist mouse on my body with a mit.

[@53iHeart]

So helpful! With the tanning water do you sleep in it over night or rinse it off after the recommended four hours?

I’ve done both! I prefer not to sleep in self tanner if I can avoid it because I feel like they all end up staining my sheets a little, but sometimes I have to sleep in it to save time!

So Happy I found your Videos 😎 question have you ever used Jergens natural glow instant mouse ?

[@fortyninergal7445]

Abbey When you say that you avoid putting the tanning mouse on your knees and elbows, and I think you said hands and feet, wouldn’t that leave those areas untanned? Do I put barrier cream on if I am using the tanique mouse, and if so, how much? Do I put it on just in between my fingers and on palms of my hands, or do I put it all over my hands and rub it in? I hope you see this soon, because I am going on a cruise soon.

[@yaelderickson4957]

Hi Abbey! Do you exfoliate your entire body before the application of the self tanner? Thank you for this informative video!

[@AbbeyYung]

Yes I use an exfoliating glove to remove any remaining self tan!

[@sarahhbethhxo1294]

Hi! I just bought the mousse! I know you mentioned having to apply 2 layers. I'm also 5'10", so I was wondering how many uses/applications do you think you get from a bottle of mousse? Thanks!

[@rachelhill7992]

Do you think the water mist tan could be good for a light mist over the face to get color or would it be too intense. I used the St. Tropez tanning water (for face) and it was great but not sure how you thought this product would do with that technique.

[@AbbeyYung]

I'm not sure I haven't tried it on my face!

If we use the tans without a colour guide and go out whole it develops, does the tan still develop when we sweat a bit. Obviously a 10km run would have a negitive effect. But if we just Cary out daily tasks but it is summer and hot. I am wearing a tan now and sleeping in it, I sleep on a camper mattress in the loungeroom the night I do my tan lol. So much mess

This is one of those situations that being barely 5 foot tall has its advantages. There aren't to many so I'll take it when I can get it. I'm able to get like 3 to 4 more tans out of a bottle then any of my friends. I'm glad I'm able to save a good penny just bc I'm freaking short. Jeans shopping is a completely different story though.
