    Default Mystic tan for African-American girls?

    I was wondering if anyone knows of or is an African-American that has tried the mystic tan. I m thinking about trying it, but I don't know if it will show up or really make a difference, I am a medium brown color, but I just want to add a subtle glow to my skin. Any info would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

    Why not just apply a shimmer lotion? I have a bronze shimmer stick that I apply to my skin. It's awesome!

    Let us know if you end up doing this. I'm curious about this as well.

    I am really thinking about doing it, especially before my trip (to Miami). I told my boyfriend I wanted to go tanning and he just laughed at me lol. But I'll let you know how it goes if and when I decide to do it.

    I would assume that would be very annoying every night?

    But perhaps a semi permanent bronzer would work? bronzers are the shiny bits in the tanner.

    If you want to spray tan and your skin is already naturally really dark, the only way it's gonna have a visible effect is if you use a product that has 12% DHA (the tanning agent) in it. Im not sure whether mystic tan does but plenty of spray tans come in 8%, 10% and 12% so ask at the salon for the 12%.

    If you are dark, you can get away with an at home self tanner and not waste your money on the mystic. The darker you are, the better and easier you'll self tan and you are way less likely to streak. I think mystic is a waste of money.

    My friend did this, and loved it she looked very bronze. It looked natural.

    If you do this, can you please come out of the booth screaming "I didn't think I was going to come out THIS dark!!!"


    Please?

    Christian Dior is the best, but with dark skin, drugstore brands are just as good. I like the Neutrogena aerosol spray. Or any aerosol spray, they just apply more evenly and dry quicker.

    ^^^ hmmmmm I'll give that a try. The closest I've gotten to self tanner is that sally hansen stuff (darkest shade) which looks great if sprayed lightly.

    If I were you, I'd try Benefit's Jiffy Tan...It's probably a little cheaper than Dior, and it smells really nice, goes on silky, and will bronze your skin well. Mystic Tan smells like ass and you can't shower it off for eight hours. Plus it goes on patchy on the face, in my experience (i'm pale though...but the smell is universal, and yuck).

    I was wondering about this, too. I tan via regular ol' sun and maybe 2 trips to a booth a month during the winter... I'm African but my skin is more of a 'Mediterranean olive' color (according to my derm this is the kinda skin I have).

    Is Mystic like...full body makeup? I've always wondered about the coverage.

    Hey I just thought of a product that might be better than a fake tan if you are really just after a glow. It's MODELCO shimmer in a can. It sprays on and dries and gives you a light shimmer and glow.

    There are many stereotypes about the industry that I work in. Sometimes they can be true but human beings are very diverse creatures and cannot be pigeon-holed into one category.

    Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.

    I went into Sephora- and tried this because it was on sale.



    It smells great and looks really good. I thought it was way too noticeable at first, but when it dried it looked incredible.

    What's your complexion to start with? Did you put it on face and body? Or just body?
