The Sicilian 200X Double Dark Black Bronzing Self Tanner Tanning Lotion

I should note I just got this and used it about 4 hours ago so I’ll probably update when I have a couple weeks results but I’m so happy with the results I’ve already seen I couldn’t resist reviewing. Yesterday I laid out in the sun for about 2 hours with my normal tanning oil spray and saw 0 color change. Went out today after liberally applying Sicilian and it worked so well I actually started getting a little red. I laid out for maybe 40 minutes. Same time of day, same UV index. I see a lot of people complaining about the smell but I really don’t notice it too much. You can definitely smell it when it goes on and I personally think it smells lovely but it does fade into a bit more subtle scent (as most lotions do). I guess if I really press my face into my arm I can barely catch a “spray tan” smell but it’s extremely faint and unless you have someone smash their face into your skin it’s pretty unnoticeable. You could definitely cover it up with a mild scented lotion if desired. One thing I would note is be careful if you don’t have a base tan. This works VERY fast. I’m half south Asian so it takes a lot for me to burn and I grew up in Tucson so I’m pretty used to heavy sun but this stuff managed to get me mildly red. Whatever your normal tanning session is, I’d recommend cutting it in half the first time you use it. I’m one of those “oh don’t worry I never burn” type people but honestly had I been out 20 minutes longer I probably would be a little lobstery. Granted I don’t have a base yet so if you’re already far along in your tanning then there’s probably less need for caution. Some people have also mentioned streaking but I haven’t noticed any steaks at all. I did rub it in very well though and very liberally. However it may develop more in the next 24 hours but so far no streaks and no orange tones. Not even on my hands but I also washed them several times directly after applying. This is the first bronzer/accelerator that HASNT streaked aside from Beach Bunny Black that I used in high school (also a very good product). It also soaks in EXTREMELY fast and it moisturizes so well, my skin feels so soft and I wasn’t worried about transfer because it dried within 5 minutes. Also keep this in mind when rub it in, you really want to make sure you rub in in well and even as soon as it hits your skin to avoid being blotchy, streaky. Overall I’m extremely pleased and I highly recommend this product, will definitely be buying again.

Great indoor tanning lotion. You can definitely notice color after one use. No irritation or patchy spots. I love the smell it has a perfume smell to it. After smell isnt bad either. I'd definitely buy it again.

"I'm gonna give you a tan, you can't refuse". While this lotion DOES smell like an old Italian man, boy oh boy, does it ever make you daaaaaak. Raaaannn staaaaap! This would definitely be Jersey Shore approved.

Well.... I don't typically do reviews but some people said that this was streaky and stained their hands. Others said that it had a horrible smell. None of that was true for me. It didn't stain my skin or my hands in anyway at all. I absolutely noticed a difference in my color after 1 15 minute session. Very nice brown color. The smell when I applied I thought smelled really good. So as it went the smell is a bit strong but no worse than other lotions. It wore off quickly. I would for sure recommend to anyone. and for those who have stained hand or large streaks I would wonder what they had done. I just applied like normal and rubbed it in good

This lotion smells very nice and is easy to apply. A good option if you're looking for a bronzer.
