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.

In love with this tan

I have been buying this tanning moose since the brand was made. I suffer from eczema and this is the only tan that doesn’t make me flare up. Always an amazing colour and last so long. Will always be my go to tan.

Only tanning brand that I now use!!

I absolutely love this brand. It is the only fake tan brand that I now use and I use it religiously, especially the tanning drops. The tan is so natural, yet you can build it to be darker. I also find that when I apply it, it never looks patchy. The delivery and customer service has always been something that I highly recommend!! Will always use this brand💖

One off purchase to a subscription

I purchased solskin as a one off purchase when it first came out, thinking that because I’m fair skinned I would have the same problem that I have with other tans where they look orange toned on me. Safe to say I was not disappointed when it came out golden, washed off evenly after a 5/6 days and got multiple compliments on how natural it looked. After this, I subscribed and never looked back. Throughout the summer months to keep up the even tan I purchased the gradual tan moisturiser, and use that on days where I need a quick fix over night.
Safe to say it’s my favourite subscription so far.

The best tan i have used

The best tan i have used , it’s the right amount of glow and works wonders especially for those with sensitive like me , i have eczema and there’s never been an issue of dryness or irritation. Love solskin and would highly recommend. Even if your not a fake tan person the amount of confidence you gain , you can use the tanning drops on your face for a extra boost

SOLSKIN FOR MEN…?

From a male perspective having a natural tan outside of summertime wasn’t something I thought was possible.

SOLSKIN is hands down the best tanning product I have ever used. Easy to apply, great results and as subtle or obvious as you would like.

I use the gradual tan for my body (fair to medium) and tanning drops for my face (3 drops with my regular moisturiser)

For a guy wanting to improve their tan throughout the season, I couldn’t recommend enough.

Solskin is by far the best fan I’ve ever used!

Solskin is by far the best fan I’ve used - I have been tanning for 10 years and I haven’t found a tan as good as Solskin!! I find that it’s not sticky to sleep in, it doesn’t go patchy, it doesn’t have that typical biscuit smell and the colours are gorgeous! Highly recommend and will be using Solskin for the rest of my tanning days!

Really is the best!

I’ve been using solskin since it was released, I would never go back!
The results speak for themselves, but more than that it’s gentle to my sensitive skin and easy to apply!

I use the Extra dark mouse with the tanning mitt and brush for a seamless natural application!
Can not recommend it enough!

Best tan on the market!!!

Solskin is the best tan out there. I’ve been regularly ordering and using the tan, tan face drops and tan moisturiser in dark for about 6 months now. I especially love the tanning moisturiser, it’s fab the colour it gives is gorgeous. My family and friends always comment on how well and tanned I look. I counted 7 used tans of different makes in my bathroom cupboard , all different makes (some really expensive ones). I’d buy one, use it once and throw it to the back of the cabinet because I’d wake up looking like a tangarine. Solskin makes my skin smell lovely and my skin is so moisturised. Also the customer service team are so lovely, really helpful and kind. Tbh I’ll never use any other tan… solskin is the best out on the market!!!

Seven tans retired to the back of the cupboard? That’s officially a glow graveyard 😅 We’re so glad SOLSKIN earned pride of place as your ride-or-die glow, and thank you for the love for our customer service team too, they’ll be beaming as much as your skin is 🤎

Disappointed

I bought Sol skin tan after seeing it on tiktok ads, I bought the darkest shade excited to be nice and bronzed. When I applied the tan it didn’t look that dark on which I was suprised by but decided I’d just wait and see. After leaving it on overnight and washing it off in the morning I was really disappointed as the tan was definitely not extra dark and it looked like I hadn’t even put any tan on! Ever since using the tan my hands and chest have been coming out in spots and extremely itchy rashes. One thing I will say is it’s nice how it’s not sticky and doesn’t have that horirble biscuit smell BUT i wouldn’t say it’s worth the money or purchase it again.

Orange and scaly

Sadly, this tan is really bad. Wanted to love it but after having given it a good three goes now I’ve given up. I used the mousse which is always my preferred type of tan. It takes FOREVER to absorb and even when using a small amount it feels like it’s just being moved around on the surface of your skin and stays wet/tacky for ages. The transfer is horrific but to be honest most mousses with a guide colour do that so nothing new there. The colour after washing off is very orange and whilst I didn’t find it was streaky initially, it doesn’t wear well at all! From day two it goes ridiculously scaly! My pre-tan and post-tan upkeep routine is very good with daily moisturising etc and despite this, it still went horribly scaly and subsequently very patchy! Each time I’ve used it I’ve needed to scrub it off after 3 days as it just looks so awful. I’ve used much cheaper brands where the tan just fades naturally, but not this. Really wanted to love this brand but feel like I’ve paid a premium price for a sub standard product. Don’t get sucked into their influencer marketing like I did!
