I found that everytime I use this product I have to shake it real good before spraying or it will come out dark and blotchy:(

Is your spray setting too high on your gun ? With this product you should spray on a lighter setting as its darker than some other solutions =)

Because it isn't being applied evenly and if it is applied evenly it isn't drying evenly and it is settling in the creases or dry patches on the skin. A spray tan will amplify any abnormalities in the skin. Healthy, freshly exfoliated skin tans the best. Spray tan products vary in thickness. If you have a thinner solution, turn down the spray gun and a thicker lotion needs a more open nozzle. Before every tan, exfoliate with a good exfoliator. Bottom line - If the St. Tropez solution works best with your spray gun and your skin, stick with that.

You are spraying yourself? I haven't tried St Tropez yet. I use the Norvelle Sution on 80% of my clients . Never had that problem.

Maybe it's just me, but I've never had a tanning lotion that came off in patches. Mine always fade, or more likely washed off, unevenly. I've probably then not applied it evenly.

I've used Tide Free & Gentle and Tide Original. Both have been fine. I've also bleached the daylights out of them with no issues.

It sounds like you had a defective product in both cases. My product was thin like a serum, but I have never had the experience that you had with it. I have used it over a year, do 4 or 5 pumps to cover my short curly hair after shampooing and conditioning my hair. But I also use other products with it. If you don't like this product, I think you should try others to see whether you get a better response. As for me, I am staying with it--keeps my hair from getting frizzy.

I have the same problem...I have used the machine twice, tried a third time. First time it worked great! Second time I had to unclip the little spray nozzles at the bottom and un-clog them with a paper clip. Third time I was unsuccessful in getting the machine to spray (spend hours looking stuff up on the internet and trying different solutions, nothing worked). It was useless. VERY frustrating.

I would suggest mousse, that way you are assured better coverage.Editing to add: I used the rinse a handful of times before giving up on it, and switching products to a mousse temporary dye.

This spray does have a consistency like conditioner. It's amazing it actually does spray at all but it does..Will it not spray or is the pump broken?? You could try and run it under hot water...I would write to the seller.! It also has a very distinct smell...If you have the chance to smell one in a local drug store you might want to do that just to make sure you are getting an authenticproduct.

I spray Clorox bleach spray to completely cover all that is stained and let it sit for a while, then it comes off for me.. Hope that helps!

I have always bought this from Sephora and been satisfied; this iteration seems to be a different color/texture, and doesn't work nearly as well. Very odd....

I purchased the 1mm derma roller and used it once so far on my face. I was wondering if anyone had a problem with hyperpigmentation after rolling? I saw two spots on my nose the next day that werent there before. I didnt use sunscreen though! anyway, I really want to continue use but afraid to use it again due to this issue. could it be that I have light olive skin or because I didnt use suncreen?

I truly hope you give this a chance to work for you. I'm a big Neutrogena lover, however I did not like the Rapid wrinkle as much, (for me).I'm waiting for them to come out with a Bigger Bottle, and a Little Cheaper.Enjoy giving it a try. :)

I don't remember if my bottle did that or not. I would call customer service and see if they can send you a replacement. However, I wasn't too happy with the results of this bronzer anyway. There are better options out there that are cheaper.

I had the same reaction. I actually peeled and got red in a way that I knew something was wrong.I washed it all off..and have moved on to use Paula's choice products..one of them being a daily use bha. I think the formulation for perfect Image becomes more acidic in time. I think it has a short life span. I did not get a full year with it. The one interesting thing...is that it seems to occur after a long break from using it.

Hello Beth,Thanks for contacting me. The cream in the tube is indeed pretty light, but not white though. Perhaps you did get a bad tube. Can you try some on your hand to see if that changes anything?I love this skin toner and it makes me look younger.Good luck

I own and operate a mobile sunless only business. We bought two of these machines and have yet to use.them in a professional manner other than testing them. That being said I've only ever used an airbrush.compressor & gun {iwata} so I'm not used to the spray gun or its technique. So I find it extremely awkward and difficult to do tans this way, the machine itself when turned on isn't able to use the "low" setting nothing comes out of the gun so only works on medium and high settings. Only comes with one cup & finding replacement cups is very hard as well as expensive. The solutions that it comes with offer a beautiful color BUT ARE PURE CRUD {do not fade well at all& your clients will.complain of being blotchy} so I recommend never using them professionally. The company was very nice and offered a no hassel return however due to shipping cost we decided to keep both machines. Will they over heat? You would be able to tan at least two clients one right after the other with no problem. I personally would turn off and wait a few before moving on to more.

I used 20% of another brand? Because Redken was unavailable everywhere. I would have to check but it was a similar product with no peroxide. Everyone was out of 20% so I had to send far away for it and time was of the essence so I went ahead with the other brand and ordered the 30% of Chromatics just in case it didn

I have a few stray marks on my canopy (light blue stroller) and I couldnt get them off w water and Resolve. Not sure what to do ... Before I ever used this, I had contacted UB re. Pre-treating it and they told me not to as it was already pre-treated for stains.
