00:00Hey guys, I'm Hannah.
00:01And I'm Dave.
00:02And for the next three days, we are going to be testing out self-tanners.
00:06I can't wait.
00:06I want to get crispy.
00:08Me too!
00:09Woo!
00:10I am going to be using the higher-end self-tanner.
00:14And I am going to be using the more affordable option.
00:17What is your experience with self-tanning, Dave?
00:19As I don't get a lot of sun, I sampled with it back in high school when I was probably
00:24not as confident.
00:26And I think I looked kind of patchy, but I'm willing to give it another shot because
00:30that was 15 years ago.
00:32I want to show you this.
00:34That's you?
00:35With self-tanner.
00:36She's kind of orange.
00:39Kind of loompa loompa.
00:40Like Peking duck.
00:41In high school and into college, because I was insecure about how pale my skin was, I
00:47did horrible things.
00:47It was self-tanner and the tanning bed.
00:50So dumb girls and boys.
00:52Don't do that.
00:53Well, self-tanning, I think, gets kind of a bad rap because sometimes people overdo
00:57it.
00:57But I will say, as a very pale person, it's important to find alternatives than just sitting
01:02out in the sun if it's not particularly good for you.
01:05This says nothing about color.
01:06This just says mousse blanc.
01:09Bronzing mousse.
01:10What's your color?
01:11Light bronze.
01:12Light bronze.
01:13Mine is not for use on the face.
01:15I'm going to put on a bathing suit.
01:16Okay.
01:17A bandeau style bathing suit so that I won't have lines.
01:22And I'll just do waist up because, hey.
01:25You're a dude.
01:26Yeah.
01:26I'm a dude.
01:27Just a regular guy.
01:28Hannah and I are going to go back to our respective homes and try our individual products.
01:32And over the next three days, we are going to measure application, coverage, color, staining
01:40and fading.
01:41All together now.
01:42Application.
01:43Coverage.
01:44Color.
01:45Staining.
01:45And fading.
01:47Let's do it.
01:49Okay.
01:50It is about time to apply the tanning lotion for the first time.
01:55I'm not naked.
01:56I'm wearing a bandeau.
01:57My room's really messy.
01:58Okay.
01:59So, the directions are real easy.
02:02Basically, it just says use a mitt if you don't want to stain your hands.
02:05I think I'm going to pull this off just fine because how hard can this possibly be?
02:11Got on my trusty glove.
02:13Squirt moves directly into tanning mitt.
02:15Apply to the body in circular motions.
02:18I should paint up my hair.
02:19Am I doing it right?
02:20Who knows?
02:24Oh my god.
02:26I was not expecting it to be that dark.
02:33It's kind of cold.
02:35This is not a circle.
02:37I'm struggling.
02:39One thing I didn't count on is that I can't get to my back.
02:43So, I might have a couple splotty areas.
02:46I just have a feeling that this is not going to be even like I want it to be.
02:51I can't do it.
02:55I will say it actually smells kind of nice.
02:59It smells like coconuts.
03:00All right.
03:01So, I just finished.
03:02I only did this arm and not this one so that I can really compare.
03:06So far, it looks about the same.
03:13Okay, so application is done.
03:18So, I just got back from the gym where there's tons of fluorescent light and in that light,
03:23you can really tell that one side is orange.
03:24Maybe it was just in my head, but I felt like people were looking because you can totally
03:29see the line from where I stopped applying it and where it's still white.
03:33Okay, so I am home now.
03:35I definitely look like I got a tan, but arms are pretty good.
03:42Here's the other one.
03:44It's pretty nice to me.
03:46I would say a success.
03:48I wouldn't say the results were dramatic, but you could definitely tell that I was a
03:53little bit more tan and that kind of felt good.
03:56One thing I am noticing though is that it's really tan and brownish like right on my palm
04:01where the mitt touched it.
04:03And you can kind of see I got a little bit of a tan around my white sheets.
04:07I thought it was dry after the first day, but I guess it wasn't.
04:10These are my white pillowcases.
04:13I don't see any hint of self-tanner.
04:18I'm happy to report that I redeemed my high school days of spray painting myself orange with
04:27self-tanner and I think I did a pretty good job.
04:31So to recap, I used the less expensive Jurgen self-tanner.
04:35And I used the more expensive James Reid self-tanner.
04:41Loved it.
04:42I had a pretty good experience with mine.
04:44And I also have to say that it depends on what lighting you're in to see how tan you look.
04:49When I'm inside with the natural light, I looked the same, but when I went to the gym,
04:53I looked completely orange under the fluorescent light and only on one half of my body.
04:57So spring is officially here.
04:59Summer is around the corner.
05:00I know that I'm going to be using the self-tanner again.
05:03Would you use it?
05:04I probably wouldn't do it again only because I am a very pale person and don't quite look
05:09great with tan slash orange skin.
05:11But if it makes you feel confident, go ahead and do it.
05:14I would just say to follow the directions and make sure to use the mitts.
05:18The mitts are a must.
05:20If you like it, put a mitt on it.
05:22Thanks for watching this three day challenge and we will see you next time.
