SOLAIT 360° Dry mist bronzing spray review

I tried few SOLAIT products last year and even though there are only available in UK I think it’s worth writing about them. UK is not that far from Belgium or other European country by train or plane so in case you’re going there and see these products in SUPERDRUG drugstore, here is one of my reviews, whether to pick them up or not (next reviews already coming already on Monday).

The Dry mist bronzing spray is really inexpensive, it costs under £4. On the bottle it says that it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, it is not tested on animals and it doesn’t contain sunscreen. It says it can be used on face and body, I only used it on the body.

SOLAIT 360° Dry mist bronzing spray review


Smell: it has a self-tanner smell

Application: self-tanner doesn’t have a colour indicator, it sprays white liquid. I sprayed it on the mitt and applied on the body. You have to keep the mitt wet in order not to make it streaky. It is sticky at the beginning but dries quickly.

Colour: it gives very nice brown colour. After 1st application the skin had light brown colour and after 2nd application, I looked like I had a week of vacation, so nice dark brown colour.

Longevity and fading: self-tanner lasted for 1 week which was surprising since it is from the drugstore and it’s cheap. After the week it started fading away and unfortunately it wasn’t a nice sight. It was very patchy and it wouldn’t go and stay patchy for another week. It looked very “dirty” on me. So when I selftanned with it again and it started fading in patches I made sure I scrubbed it off immediately.

Final verdict: if I was on the budget I would buy it because it has really nice colour and lasts for a whole week. I would make sure that I have a good scrub to use once it starts fading away. I used 2-thirds of it when the bottle stopped working. If you tried it, let me know if it happened to you as well.
