A toss of the hair, a feisty twinkle in the eye...that knowing smirk. Hard as you try, you can't quite identify the X factor they possess that attracts gratuitous stares as they pass. Let Designer Skin clue you in with Elusive. The unprecedented power of 50X bronzers helps provide unparalleled bronzing results, while ChronoReset™ leaves skin with a timeless look. What can we say? Some people have it, everyone wants it. Breakthrough 50X Bronzer utilizes a combination of three tanning processes--Immediate Bronzing, Melanin Activated Bronzing and Delayed Bronzing--to help provide optimal color enrichment TanEntice Elixir™, scientifically designed to work in conjunction with the 50X bronzer, utilizes and Amino Acid to help increase Melanin production and distribution When used in combination with UV Light, ChronoReset™ Anti-Aging Synchronization can help restore your Circadian Clock, improving skin's function, hydration and appearance, while also serving as a precursor to Vitamin D production Time Release Fragrance provides a long lasting effect, leaving everyone you meet with the memory of your signature scent Fragrance: Dewy Ozonic Lily Smell: This lotion does not have a very strong fragrance at all, it's kind of a light planty smell with that "tanning" smell. After tanning, I smelled like the fragrance mixed with the heavy DHA smell; my shirt smelled like dead skin. There's definitely no ATO inhibitors! Moisture: This is a pretty moisturizing lotion.. Color /Consistency: This lotion is a dark brown color (must be because of the bronzer). It's a creamy lotion that's not too thick or too thin. Results: I'm really disappointed with this lotion I expected to walk out and be BLACK with these "50 times bronzers"! What a fallacy! I got decent color but no where near as much color as I get with my other lotions like Brilliant or even Be Desired that's an intensifier! At least I'm not orange and at least I did not waste my money on a whole bottle of it! This stuff is going for 75 online and that means possibly 150 in store! It may just be "body chemistry" because my skin may react differently than other peoples skin. Overall: I am less than impressed with this one! Try a packette before you buy a bottle.

Update on my review: over night the bronzers developed nicely, but the bronzers are not super intense or dark. It's a medium level bronzer. But, I smelled so badly of DHA the next morning it's like I put on some cheap sunless tanner! Overall this is a 3/5 stars for me. The ATO is really bad!

**My review on Jan 5,2014**
I used this in the morning today 10 hrs ago..
*Scent-A light botanical fresh flowery scent....its pretty and unique..definitely a unisex scent. I personally love the scent.
*Ato was light..After a few hours I did pick up hints of DHA every now & then but nothing bad or major.
*This lotion was nicely moisturizing,dimethicone is 10th in the ingredients so silicone wise its not heavy imo at all. Lotion goes on creamy & smooth,medium thickness but absorbs into the skin well and doesn't feel greasy at all.My skin felt hydrated and soft after tanning.
*Color boost was actually pretty good considering DHA is the 11th ingredient.....BUT I will say this there are lotions that get me darker but still in the end this lotion did a nice job. I used a tantoo in a random spot and 10hrs later the tantoo outline is lightly visible and my existing tantoo outline from the Jwoww bronzer w/the Ink Drink complex that I used last Monday is still super visible but the crispness of it died down a little due to this lotion. This lotion did give me a very nice brown boost of color so no complaints.
Overall I like this lotion and would get a bottle but not for the $150 retail price IMO its not all that! But its nice for the right price(shop around) lol IMO I don't consider this a dark DHA bronzer, to me its more like a medium bronzer.
*This is one that is packet worthy! I can see people loving this and hating this..
4/5 stars DHA could be higher up in the ingredients

It's been 4 hours since I've tanned and I'm still letting the lotion sit until 10 but I wanted to do a review. I did buy this full price at sun tan city (it's my last big purchase there because I recently got a job to be a tanning consultant there, I start on the 23rd).
Scent- the scent is definitely unisex which I like. It reminds me of a lighter version of AG confessions mixed with DS escapade. Kind of colognish.
ATO- Had none the first 2 hours but now I can smell a little but only if I sniff my arm or shirt.
Lotion- Dark brown color, not typical DS silicone (which I'm grateful for), nicely moisturizing, and goes on smooth.
Results- I don't know if I've ever been this dark. This is definitely my favorite lotion of 2014. Great immediate color boost which I can defiantly see getting darker. Very impressed by this one. Worth every penny spent.
All and all: 5/5

I paid an extreme price for this lotion just to be highly disappointed. It does NOT GIVE ME ANY COLOR! This lotion is very thick & does not absorb into the skin, when I get out of the tanning bed majority of my lotion is on the acrylic glass instead of on my skin. I would like for Designer Skin to give me my money back as this lotion is not worth one-fourth of the price($145.00 plus 10% tax) I paid for this lotion. Infact this bottle is 3/4th full. Do not purchase

Tried a packet of this lotion in the Matrix standup for the full 12 min.
SCENT: Dewy Ozonic Lily- the scent put me off immediately..to me it smelled like fermented wine almost exactly like the Snooki In the Spotlight white 70x lotion. I had horrible ATO all day at work and couldn't wait to go home and shower!
CONSISTENCY & COLOR: Medium tan and on the thicker side. I felt like it was a bit sticky during and a little after tanning. A little went a long way as with most DS lotions.
RESULTS: Even though I didnt care for this lotion, I have to admit that I got awesome results! The DHA continued to deepen my tan during the day! I didnt shower until about 12 hours after tanning and tantoo outline was solid.
I give this 3/5⭐⭐⭐ due to the smell and ATO and the sticky feel but to be fair the color payoff was worth it. I will be passing on the bottle.
