Super Fine Skin Polish Moisturizing Exfoliator is a wonderful body scrub that removes dead skin cells effectively so that you have a smooth surface upon which to apply your self tanner. I like this body scrub so much that it will be gone in no time.

pHenomenal 2-3 Week Tan Lotion, "leaves skin beautifully tanned, amazingly nourished, and healthy-looking for up to two to three weeks. The fast-absorbing lotion formula gives instant natural bronzing and develops to a deep, natural-looking tan. pHenO2 technology encourages a tan that lasts up to four times longer than regular tans with a patch-free, perfect fade while certified organic botanicals and moisture locking technology give 72-hour hydration. Odour Remove™ technology ensures no smell whatsoever while the included tan mitt ensure a fast, easy, streak-free application and natural-looking result. Regardless of your natural skintone, choose Fair for a subtle glow, Medium for a golden bronze, and Dark for a deep tan." It is very easy to apply, is long lasting, and has no unpleasant odor. It offers a deep dark tan that is natural in appearance.

Rapid Tan Mousse utilizes, "rapid development technology speeds up the tanning process for a light sunkissed glow after one hour, a medium bronze result after two hours, and a deep tan after three or more hours. Certified organic botanicals and moisture locking technology nourish the skin and give 72-hour hydration while Odour Remove™ technology ensures no smell whatsoever. The included tan mitt ensures a fast and easy, streak-free application and natural-looking result that fades flawlessly after four to seven days." This is a very easy to use formula that applies effortlessly without pesky streaks. It feels good on the skin and offers hydration, and a natural finish. It takes minimal effort to achieve a deep and natural looking tan.

    1. Hi Sunnykm, You are so welcome. The pHenomenal 2-3 Week Tan is in Medium and the Mousse is "Choose Your Shade" presumably because it is very buildable. :-)
