192 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
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 cream is labeled for protection and preparation for endurance sports, and it is listed as suitable for all skin types. The name references tanning in the sense of conditioning and toughening skin, similar to how tanning treats leather, rather than producing a bronzed color, and the formula is described with an antioxidant feature.
It comes in a single 100 milliliter container, a smaller size than the typical 8 ounce tanning oils and lotions in this category, which fits its role as a targeted foot care product rather than an all over body formula.
With a 4.5 star average across 192 ratings, it has a smaller review base than the bigger tanning oil brands, but the score itself is consistent with a well regarded niche product built for a specific use case.

- Purpose built to condition and toughen dry, hard working feet for endurance sports

Cons

Performance notes
The tanning reference in this product's name points to conditioning and toughening skin the way tanning treats leather, not to producing a bronzed color. The antioxidant feature is the main functional claim, aimed at supporting feet that take repeated stress during running, hiking, or other endurance activities rather than delivering a cosmetic finish.
What buyers say
A 4.5 star average across 192 ratings is a solid score for a specialty foot care product, even with a smaller review base than the mainstream tanning oils in this lineup.

Frequently asked questions
Will this lotion give my feet a tan color?
No, the tanning reference in the name is about conditioning and toughening skin the way tanning treats leather, not about producing a bronzed or tanned color. If you want a cosmetic tan, a dedicated self-tanning oil or lotion is the better fit.
Who is this product made for?
It is built for endurance athletes such as runners and hikers who want to condition and toughen dry, hard working feet before long events, rather than for general body tanning.
How much product do I get?
It comes in a single 100 milliliter container, which is a smaller, more concentrated size than the typical 8 ounce tanning oils sold for full body use.
