Sunless Tanners w/o Odor?....Really??? - Skin Problems Message Board

I LOVE sunless tanners, AND HATE THE SMELL.
Even the ones which have "cover up" fragrances in them may not smell so bad at first but in a few hours end up with that distinctive stinch.

Any advice on sunless tanners w/o the smell and that give you the longest lasting tan?

p.s. I use St. Tropez. It does have an odor, I admit, but I find it tolerable, and the color is great on me. Better than any UV induced tan I have had!

Well, I'm afraid that there's really no complete way to elliviate the smell from dha, but there are products with less smell. Some of it has to do with body chemistry and some with the product. Many on sunless (I'm very active over there) use scented body washes and lotions and that does a very good job of covering up any lingering odor (after the first shower). I've personally found that having an airbrush tan has less lingering odor, but it's rather cost prohibitive. Go check out sunless.com, there are really great reviews and good advice!
