VIDEO: Million Dollar Tan Sunless Tanning Lotion Review

The Million Dollar Tan Cabana Tan Extreme is a white sunless tanning lotion that gives you a natural looking tan. I recommend using gloves or a tanning mitt when applying it.It glides on smoothly and is easy to blend. If you apply just one coat, you get a subtle tan. You can apply 2 coats in a row (what I do) to get a darker color. You can also apply it multiple days in a row to get a deep tan. The color is very natural, and does not look orange or yellow. It’s formula dries fast, and will not rub off into clothing or sheets. The tan will last about a week, and will gradually start fading off. Million Dollar tan is also organic, and paraben free.

Here are the basic steps to apply self tanner. Please watch my How to Apply Self Tanner video for a full demonstration.

Exfoliate using a exfoliating wash cloth or buffing sponge and body wash
Apply body lotion to dry areas such as hands, feet, and elbows
While wearing gloves or a self tanning mitt, apply the self tanning lotion in small sections, blending in circular motions
Remove one glove to apply it to your hand, then remove the other glove and put a glove back on to apply it the opposite hand

Do not apply too much to hands, feet or elbows. I use what is leftover to blend over elbows instead of applying more to that area.
Check out my how to self tanning tricky areas video for more tips

Using a damp washcloth, gently go over elbows, knuckles, and toes. This will remove some of the tanner from these areas that tend to get too dark.
Wear loose clothing to bed, and do NOT get your skin wet for at least 6 hours.
Shower the next morning (optional since this tanner does not have a bronzer in it)
Apply body lotion all over. Reapply body lotion daily to prevent skin from getting dry
