Best Product Ever!!!

9 years ago

I have been using this since at least 2005. It is the best self tanning product on the market. Dries quickly and looks natural. I use it on my body a couple of days a week on my face everyday. It is a great primer! Keeps my make up in place and looks the same at the end of the day. I honestly do not know what I would do without this product. I am 40 years old and I feel like I do not even look my age. I contribute to using this product daily!

Why did they discontinue the Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizing tanner???? It was THE best self tanner out there! It never, every streaked like this awful product does and it gave me a shimmer on my skin. This does not, it leaves streaks that you are stuck with until it fades and looks FAKE. The Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer never looked fake, it always looked natural. Sorry, L'Oreal. I might as well pay for something as cheap as Jergens now. This product FAILS completely. Please bring back the old formula of Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer! Listen to your reviews and customers.

I have used this product for years with no complaints. I’m not sure if I received a bad batch but the texture was runny almost like water.

amazing product and results

I love this product so much. I have been using this for over two years and always return to it no matter what. it doesn't make me orange although it does take a routine to make sure it doesn't turn out orangey. the tan is great, and the sparkles give me a nice matte but still glowy finish. I use this in the winter when my skin is not as tan as in the summer and it keeps me looking sunkissed. I would 1000000% recommend it to everyone. if you only put a little bit at night not much will happen as it is a gradual tan and you are supposed to apply more than once.

Good color, but dislike the sparkles and smell

3 years ago

I love the color this creates on my skin. My face is darker than my neck area & décolleté and this product is great at leaving a natural darker skin tone on those areas and blends in very well. I wish it came without sparkles though as sparkles seem outdated and cheap looking. I also don't like the products that gradually tan because the color is never right for me so don't want to switch to that. Please make this product without sparkles and try and make the scent a little less strong. It smells like I'm burning incense in my office when I wear it.

What is the difference between Sublime Bronze tinted self-tanning lotion and Sublime Bronze tinted self-tanning luminous bronzer? I used Sublime Bronze self-tanning lotion for years (untinted), so I'm trying to figure out what to buy instead.

  Hi there! Thank you for reaching out to us about the Sublime Bronze, Bronze Bronzer and the Sublime Bronze Lotion. The main difference between Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Lotion and Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Luminous Bronzer lies in the added shimmer and luminosity of the Luminous Bronzer version. The Luminous Bronzer specifically adds shimmer and light-reflecting particles to enhance the glow, giving your skin an extra luminous finish. Both products provide immediate color and a developing tan, but if you want an extra shimmering and luminous finish, opt for the Luminous Bronzer. We hope you give it a try and love your results!

Why did the deep get discontinued ? I came on this site just to try and find the "deep" cause I thought the store I shopped at were not carrying it. Only after seeing comments did I find it was discontinued.

I have been using the Sublime Bronze lotion twice a week for over a decade. Why is the one labeled “New Look/Same Formula” WAY more watered down (similar to what comes in the “Travel size”) and almost completely washes off in the shower??

It never, every streaked like this awful product does and it gave me a shimmer on my skin. This does not, it leaves streaks that you are stuck with until it fades and looks FAKE. The Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer never looked fake, it always looked natural. Sorry, L'Oreal. I might as well pay for something as cheap as Jergens now. This product FAILS completely. Please bring back the old formula of Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer! Listen to your reviews and customers.

I have been using this for over two years and always return to it no matter what. it doesn't make me orange although it does take a routine to make sure it doesn't turn out orangey. the tan is great, and the sparkles give me a nice matte but still glowy finish. I use this in the winter when my skin is not as tan as in the summer and it keeps me looking sunkissed. I would 1000000% recommend it to everyone. if you only put a little bit at night not much will happen as it is a gradual tan and you are supposed to apply more than once.

My face is darker than my neck area & décolleté and this product is great at leaving a natural darker skin tone on those areas and blends in very well. I wish it came without sparkles though as sparkles seem outdated and cheap looking. I also don't like the products that gradually tan because the color is never right for me so don't want to switch to that. Please make this product without sparkles and try and make the scent a little less strong. It smells like I'm burning incense in my office when I wear it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ephtech12 from No Streaks No orange I have been skeptical about self tanners for years. I’ve bought cheapest and extremely expensive and always get streaks and a orange tan. I’m very fair complected white with freckles. This is very easy to apply, bronze is instant and the tan looks great. I for one like the sparkles and smell. My only concern or question is going to be the longevity. I’m going to be very disappointed if this all goes away after a few showers. While not expensive it is time consuming. You want a good amount of time to completely dry before putting on anything light in color. Definitely recommend this one, have got a lot of compliments as well!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kale78 from My new favorite! I usually use the towelettes that Loreal makes and I absolutely love those. So, I thought I'd give this lotion a try. The color is very natural looking and darkens fairly quick. It's easy to apply and blends nicely around the ankles, knees, wrists, and elbows. Some lotions make those areas look dirty, but not this one. The scent isn't bad or strong and it dries pretty quickly. The price and availability of the product is great! I'm not crazy about the glitter in it, but honestly you forget about it after it's on and it does go away. It does have a slight sticky feel after you apply, but this goes away after awhile. Overall, this is my new favorite self-tanning lotion. I'm so glad I found this gem!

Yes it does have a sparkle but it's more to help you see where you've applied it, and you can see a slight tint immediately. I exfoliated first and did not apply a ton of product and just use my hand. If it does streak all I do is take a washcloth with a little bit of water and scrub that part off. I'm very pale and it looks really natural and the glitter and smell eventually fade

First application I did my whole body (and face) after a bath. I was left with a beautifully subtle glow. Second application I did my legs and torso but skipped the arms. I have an even, streak-free tan that looks natural! I found the shimmer helpful to show where I already applied the lotion. Then wiped with a towel after it dried to reduce the sparkle. So easy for a newbie and fast results!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Rachel32 from Great tan, not so great smell I recently purchased this product for a wedding I'm in this weekend. EVERYTHING turns me orange, so I did my research and saw some great reviews on the Sublime Bronze. Application was easy peasy. It leaves a very shimmery look on your skin (before showering). The color was perfect for my complexion (no orange). My only complaints were that it left a sticky effect on my skin overnight, until I rinsed off the next morning. Fortunately, it didn't effect the tan. And the next day I kept smelling some weird odor. Turns out it was me! It's not a gross smell, but it's not exactly pleasant either. Other than that, I think this product looked great on my skin, and I'd likely use it again.

After the 3rd application, I was comfortable with the results and can wear a dress.

I was excited this year to see on the bottle "new look" hoping that they removed the sparkles, but no. When I build my color I do it during the day with shorts and a t-shirt, it looks silly that my skin is all sparkly like I'm going out for a fancy night on the town and its embarrasing when people notice it. I wish you would take the sparkles out so it just looks like natural skin--PLEASE!

I use it on my body a couple of days a week on my face everyday. It is a great primer! Keeps my make up in place and looks the same at the end of the day. I honestly do not know what I would do without this product. I am 40 years old and I feel like I do not even look my age. I contribute to using this product daily!

Questions

Maddie

What do I use to apply the lotion on my body? Do I use a hand mitt or just my hands?

Candy4

Can this be applied with a tanning mit?

Cath825

What is the difference between Sublime Bronze tinted self-tanning lotion and Sublime Bronze tinted self-tanning luminous bronzer? I used Sublime Bronze self-tanning lotion for years (untinted), so I'm trying to figure out what to buy instead.

Todd

Why did the deep get discontinued ? I came on this site just to try and find the "deep" cause I thought the store I shopped at were not carrying it. Only after seeing comments did I find it was discontinued.

CoronaMartini

I have been using the Sublime Bronze lotion twice a week for over a decade. Why is the one labeled “New Look/Same Formula” WAY more watered down (similar to what comes in the “Travel size”) and almost completely washes off in the shower??

Linss82

Hello, I exfoliated and applied the lotion. To apply again the next day for a deeper tan and there after. How often do I exfoliate in between applications? Do I need to shower and exfoliate before each application?

Nici

Hello. What is the % DHA in the sublime bronze self-tanning lotion (medium)?

FrequentLi

Hi - I'm a huge fan of the Sublime line of products and have used almost all of them at some point. I am finding it IMPOSSIBLE to find the Sublime Bronze Tinted Self Tanning Lotion in DARK. Only the medium is out there. Have you discontinued this? TY

ItchyBody

Hello, I tried this product on a small area of my leg. Liked the result. So I applied it on the rest of my legs and my chest just below my neck. I broke out in severe red itchy bumps. Stopped using it but the red itchy bumps are still there. HELP!!

I purchased a L’Oreal sublime bronze tinted self tanning call of medium, dramatic shimmer. I tried it out on one, and I didn’t realize that it had sparkles in it. I would like to know how to get it off.
