Overview
This gradual self tanner cream is built around shea butter and squalane, which are there to keep the formula hydrating rather than drying as you build color over time. It carries a Vanilla Caviar scent and is formulated for all skin types and tones, with a non-sticky, no-transfer finish meant for everyday wear.
At 6.8 fluid ounces for $38, it sits toward the higher end of the self tanners in this lineup, which fits its positioning as a classic, everyday gradual tanner rather than a budget pick. The vegan formula and no-transfer claim make it a reasonable choice for anyone worried about staining sheets or clothing.
With more than 1,800 ratings averaging 4.2 stars, and 32 purchases in the past month, it has a large and currently active customer base.

- Vegan formula with a warm Vanilla Caviar scent
- 4.2 star average across more than 1,800 ratings

Performance notes
This is a gradual self tanner, so it builds color through repeated daily applications rather than a single dark result. The no-transfer, non-sticky formulation and the shea butter and squalane base are meant to make that daily routine more comfortable, since a sticky or transferring cream is harder to keep up with over time.
What buyers say
A 4.2 star average across more than 1,800 ratings is a solid, high volume score, and 32 purchases in the past month shows this cream continues to attract current buyers rather than coasting on past reviews alone.

Frequently asked questions
Will this transfer onto my clothes or sheets?
It is formulated as a no-transfer cream, which is meant to reduce the color rubbing off onto clothing or bedding once it has absorbed into the skin.
What does 'gradual' mean for this self tanner?
It means the color builds up over repeated daily applications rather than delivering a dark result after just one use, so patience over the first several days matters for reaching your preferred depth of color.
Does this work for all skin tones?
Yes, it is listed for all skin types and tones, so it is not limited to a specific shade range the way some gradual tanners are.
