DISCLOSURE: I received free products from Crowdtap to facilitate this post. All opinions are my own.
I tan pretty well. If I spend enough time outside during the summer, I get pretty dark. This was me last summer, hanging out with my buddies, Wilbur and Orville Wright. That was after spending two weeks at the beach.

REVIEW
I was sent both the Light/Medium and Medium shades to try. I found the Medium shade to be a little too dark for me. Maybe when I'm more tan in the summer, it would be a better match. But, then I really wouldn't need any makeup with a self tanner in it.
Before using the product, it's suggested you tap the bottle on a hard surface and press the pump several times. Pressing on the center of the pump helps to ensure that the makeup and self tanner come out evenly. I found one pump was plenty of product.

After mixing the two formulas together, I apply it to my face with my finger and blend with a Beauty Blender.

If you're looking to get a nice glow and a little bit of color, I think this would work nicely -- especially during the colder months, when you're inside more. Almay Healthy Glow Makeup + Gradual Self Tan retails for $14.99 and is available where beauty products are sold. Or if you feel like it, you can use my affiliate link below!
