Is Aqua Tan Body Milk Really as Great as Everyone Claims?

So I have been reading about the hype online, I have seen the 5 star reviews, and I even have my friends asking me about it. They know I'm into the latest and greatest beauty trends, and this past summer many of them have come to me asking what tanner I use. Although I like the self tanner I had been using in the past, I hated that I had to consistently use the tanner daily in order to keep up with the tan.

When all this hype was going around about Aqua Tan, I had to look into it.

Now normally I would have passed this one up, but not being able to find a single negative consumer review on this stuff, I figured, OK, I'm going to try it. I'm going to take the $40.00 plunge and buy myself some of this so called miracle self tanner.

Aqua Tan has a system, you can buy the spray, the body milk, the exfoliater, and extender. I already have an exfoliater I use that I love, so I figured I would just try 1 product, the body milk, the stuff everyone was claiming to be the best self tanner...period.

From what I gathered, Aqua Tan Body Milk would quickly give you long lasting results, the longer you leave it on your skin, the darker the tan will get. It's sort of like a gradual tan building system that people are claiming they can see happen as time goes on throughout the day.

The best part is that the tan you get from it, lasts for days, you do not have to keep coming back to your tube to apply it everyday.

That alone was the main selling peak for me. I hated having to re-apply my self tanner everyday. I hated watching my tan quickly fade whenever I exfoliated my skin, and I hated the fact that if I used too much of my self tanner, that it would leave me looking slightly orange.

That is the next top selling point when it comes to Aqua Tan. This one will not leave your skin orange. Instead, you get a beautiful bronze glow to the skin. Like a natural tan.

I mean seriously, how could I not want this!? How could anyone not want this? A healthy, and safe alternative to a tanning bed, or harmful UV rays. I do not know about you, but I am very skin conscious, and the last thing I want are premature wrinkles, and dull looking skin from over exposure. Aqua Tan seemed too good to be true, and I could not wait to get my own tube in the mail to try it out for myself.

My Experience With Aqua-Tan.com:
 
The Aqua Tan website is spectacular, simple to use, and you can even place your order and pay directly through your paypal account. I personally loved the simplicity. No less than 4 hours after placing my order I got an email with a USPS conformation that my package was on its way!!! Oh yeah!!!

You also have the option to buy Aqua Tan Body Milk on Amazon and other websites, but I found a coupon code online which saved me some money. I'd recommend you go about placing an order this way as well. You won't save a fortune, but hey, it's money in your pocket!

My Experience With the Aqua Tan Body Milk:
 
Initially I was hoping the tube of Aqua Tan Body Milk would be larger than it was, however I also knew that the supply would last me for the rest of the summer, and into the fall.
The body milk itself is semi runny, so I had to be very careful when tipping and squeezing it out of the tube, as it sort of squirts out.

Once I had a decent amount of the white colored body milk in my hand, I went ahead and began spreading it around my skin. I did not need to use much as the milk seems to spread out really nicely, and a little goes a long way.

The scent was not bad either, it had a really lovely high quality spa like zing to it, that I actually liked. The body milk also absorbed into my skin really fast. It did not leave any residue behind, nor was there any greasy shine added to my skin.

I liked how it went on, in fact better than any other self tanner I had ever used. In fact, I liked this self tanner even more than some of my body moisturizers, because it left my skin feeling really soft.

The Waiting Game
 
It is directed on the bottle that the tan will gradually grow darker and darker over a course of 5 hours, and if you want even darker results, you can apply some more the following day.

At hour 2 I saw very subtle changes in my skin color. However what was really neat about this tanner was that it was not an orange colored tan that was developing, it was as if my skin was slowly reaching a nice glowing tan step by step, as if I were tanning in the sun, only, I wasn't exposing my skin to harmful UV rays.

I knew at hour 3 that I had fallen madly, deeply in love with Aqua Tan.

At hour 5, I had a really beautiful, and stunningly natural looking bronze tan going on. I wanted to go just a little darker, so I put some more on before bed. Upon waking up, I had a gorgeous natural looking deep bronze tan, as if I had gone on vacation to the tropics while I slept in my bed.

Overall:
 
Aqua Tan is simply amazing, and normally I would into push $40 self tanners on anyone, but if you are looking for a fast beautiful bronze tan, that looks as if you were kissed by the tropical sun, then you will definitely find love in Aqua Tan.

I love this one so much, that I have already placed an order on the facial spray.
