Get ready to delight your skin with this hypoallergenic tingle bronzer.. Our patented TRF™ and CuO2® technologies energize skin to initiate a deep and dark tan. Your skin will ignite with color as our H.E.A.T.™ technology joins forces with our Hot Action Level 15 blend to give you a sensationally hot glow. Avocado Oil keeps your skin feeling conditioned and moisturized while Acai Berry Extract fuses in antioxidant properties to present your skin with the glamour it deserves. See what tanners are calling “the perfect amount of tingle”! • Rasberry Lace Fragrance **My review on April 1,2013** *Scent-Light raspberry *Lotion went on nice but after applying it felt kinda sticky. *Tingle was low and nice..towards the end of my 20min session I felt itchy. *Decent color boost especially on my arms. *No initial ATO but 2hrs after tanning the scent of DHA was kicking in.(DHA is 5th on the ingredients list) Overall this isn't a bad tingle for a low one but IMO its not mild either. Color boost is pretty nice but due to the stickiness from this lotion is the deal breaker for me..I would not get a bottle because of that. 3/5 stars

So excited to own this now! I emailed California Tan to see if they could recommend a lotion that would be comparable to their old discontinued "Caramel Spice" (that was THE best lotion as far as getting me SUPER dark). I haven't ever gotten as dark since I ran out of that lotion years back. So, they suggested Vital. So far, so good...but I'll edit this later after my tan has had time to develop (I'm too excited to wait!) Scent- smells almost exactly like my Snooki Hot Bronzer. It's fruity..raspberry-ish. Texture...it's a light lotion. Doesn't feel very moisturizing, but I never feel like tingles are by nature. Tingle...medium. More intense than Snooki Hot Bronzer, not as intense as Goddess. Definitely the "prickly, itchy" tingle. ATO...it's been about 30 mins, and I already have the DHA stink. But I don't care because...................... Color boost....HELLLLLLLOOOO!!! This post tingle color is a-mazing!!! It is BRONZE like I've spent all day at the beach!! I want this color to STAY! My boyfriend is even wowed! Now THIS is the color Caramel Spice gave me (I wish this smelled like Caramel Spice though....that one was yummy!) We'll see if it holds up after the tingling stops...like I said, I'll report back after a few hours or tomorrow and add an edit. But for now I'm giving this one 5/5++++ Very happy!! ***Update*** As promised it's the next morning and I am DARK!! This is amazing! I've finally broken my plateau and found a lotion that does exactly what I want it to! I don't know why I didn't look to California Tan to replace a discontinued lotion that THEY made in the first place. Duh! It is fun trying all different brands though

Scent: Pretty subtle raspberry. It had the tingle scent after tanning and I could pick up a little DHA hours later.
Lotion: It was a little on the thinner side but rubbed in easily. I felt a little sticky after tanning, but because I only used it on my legs, it wasn't a big deal.
Tingle: This seemed really light to me. I used this on my legs and DS Bombshell on the rest of my body. It was definitely less intense than Bombshell on me. Only my knees got pretty warm/red/itchy. I didn't feel it on the rest of my legs.
Color: I was kind of disappointed. I only got a very slight tantoo outline that completely disappeared after a couple hours. I feel a little browner, but that could just be from the DHA. I expected more of a boost from a tingle.
I probably have another use left in my packet, so I should give this another try. If my opinion changes, I will edit my review. For now, I don't plan to get a bottle because there are other tingles that I like better. I'd give it a 3/5 at this point.

Bought this today along with cyphêr platinum bronzer step 2 at palm beach tan (my old hometown salon since I'm visiting family) for 40% off and got 2 free diamond level tans out of it . Scent- it smells like sweet raspberries to me and like a mix of the orginal Snooki lotions. Lotion- lotion is like a pale pink color and is pretty thin and rubs in easily. It's not super moisturizing but it is a tingle. Tingle- I've used this before and mixed it with my cyphêr today and both times it felt pretty low-medium. It's not super itchy (to me anyway) but it's a little prickily. ATO- a faint scent of DHA but nothing major. I've defintley smelt worse. Color boost- both times have been really good at giving color (especially mixed with cyphêr). It's one of my favorite light tingles. All and all: 4/5. Wish if was a little thicker and more moisturizing.

Used this oldie last week in a level 2 HP laydown for the full 12 min mixed with JWOWW Black Bronzer. The consistency and color of this lotion reminds me of DS Bombshell 100x. The scent is Raspberry Lace but I thought it smelled like Starburst candy lol. I did notice some DHA ATO after a couple hours but not very bad Tingle was mild for me and I got a great color boost from it! I dont know how long this has been discontinued but I would get a bottle for sure and actually found a bottle on lotions2go so I am considering it!
