Our scorecard

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other women's everyday face care: moisturizers, face mists, facial kits, rollers, cleansing brushes and steamers we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

This oil and spray formula is built around a carrot extract base, a common choice in tanning oils for its antioxidant properties, alongside benefits the brand lists as hydrating, smoothening, nourishing, antioxidant, and cleansing. It is labeled for medium deep skin tones and comes in a fragrance free option, in an 8 fluid ounce bottle.

Because this is a tanning oil rather than a sunless self-tanner, it does not contain DHA for instant color and it carries no listed SPF. It is meant to be applied in the sun to help support a deeper tan on skin that already has some color or sun tolerance, so pairing it with a separate broad spectrum sunscreen is worth considering.

With a 4.6 star average across roughly 7,750 ratings, this oil has built a solid track record over time, and current monthly purchase activity suggests it still draws steady interest from returning tanners.

Performance notes

Carrot extract is a common ingredient in tanning oils, valued for its antioxidant content rather than for changing skin tone directly. The hydrating, smoothening, and nourishing benefits listed here point to a formula meant to keep skin comfortable during sun exposure, while the cleanses note suggests it can also help lift residue. With no SPF listed, it should be treated as a tan accelerating oil, not a substitute for sunscreen.

What buyers say

A 4.6 star average across roughly 7,750 ratings reflects a long, generally positive track record for this oil. Recent monthly purchase activity is modest but steady, consistent with a formula that has settled into a loyal repeat customer base rather than a fast growing new one.
