So I just bought the St Tropez Dark foam self tanner, I like using self tanners along with indoor/outdoor tanning in the summer because I feel like it enhances my color and makes everything look better, however, this self tanner when first applies is GREEN. Not slightly green, not green before you rub it in all the way, no, it's bright green until you wash it off in the morning. The bottle says nothing about this, so when I first applied it, I panicked. But I went online and checked it out and it's how it's intended to work.
Anyway, the self tanner, despite being green and confining you to your home for 8-12 hours, unless you want to entire out look like the hulk, is amazing and provides the best golden brown tan I've ever gotten out of a bottle. Totally worth looking ridiculous if you're looking for an at home tanner!

Your review is awesome haha. Anyway, The Bare minerals self tanner and SunLabs both come out a strange dark green color too, and it weirded me out too. I almost grabbed some of this from Sephora last weekend, next time I'm there I might have to!

Agreed. I have the Sunlabs one that I use during the winter and it is very green too. It does give me great color though.

Whether youโre a first-time tanner or a total pro, our dark-tinted formula will ensure you know where to apply your tan for a perfect application, everytime. Why is it different? St Tropez Dark Self Tan range is designed to provide our darkest, most intense colour yet. Extra skin conditioners and protective ingredients provide an even, streak-free colour that evens out your skin tone and lasts for longer without patchiness. This mousse contains our Aromaguard TM fragrance technology that helps to virtually eliminate the tell tale self tan aroma by up to 70%. Since I was unable to tan this summer due to having one of my legs in a cast/boot - I had to rely on this amazing product to fake it. Application Process: It was indeed a dark olive green initially but I found a lot of that greenness disappeared when I rubbed it. So luckily I didnt look like Hulk for 8-12 hours. However, initially it doesnt look like a super nice tan so I still would recommend doing it on a night when you are planning on staying in and dont have a huge meeting or presentation the next day. Color: It gave amazing results. Dont judge it by the awkward shade you are right after application. The next day, I would wake up with amazing tan color and any slight imperfections seemed to disappear after my shower. It definitely gave me an amazing tan shade. Applying this 2-3 times a week kept me feeling relatively tan. It is definitely the best self tanner I have ever used. Now that I am able to go to the salon again, I may even think of using this as an adjunct when I want an extra boost. 5/5 - if you want a self-tanner this is the one I would go for
