Gradual tan to take on holiday? Bondi sands gradual foam vs lotion?

[Justkoko]

I don't tan so I'm planning on taking someBondi Sands as its a good colour for me. Not sure whether the gradual foam or gradual lotion is going to be a better bet for colour payoff as well as convenience.
Lotion more moisturising but longer to dry, foam is dryer and quicker but may need that moisturisation! Can I put aftersun or similar on after applying?

Anyone?

Hi OP there have been quite a few threads like this recently. My takeaway from these is that even if you fake tan it comes off with all the swimming/drying/sand etc. That being said I flit between thinking I’ll be fine deathly pale and then thinking I’ll buy tanning drops to add to the hotel moisturiser. I’m constrained by a tight easyJet weight limit though.

Yes the skinny tan drops added to daily after sun is a good alternative.

I also use the decleor gradual tan, it’s quite lasting normally.

I found the foam gives a great colour, but is very drying. The lotion has been my go-to for a couple of years now. I find starting a week before you want the colour, and applying a good generous layer every day, does the job- then top up every day for as long as you want to keep it. The key really is how much you put on- be very liberal with it.

Drops are ok for the face, but I find them too much of a faff for the whole body. Plus they make your palms go orange no matter how thoroughly you wash them.

Well I was thinking of doing the proper tan form first then taking gradual away. But maybe I should just take the proper stuf so I can do it every other day.
