Reviews of Vita Matrix Self Tanning

The Claims

Vita Matrix claims to make your skin look better while giving you a beautiful, dark bronze, sunless glow. The company wants to stand in the fight against skin cancer by making it known that people have other good options to get dark without the sun or tanning beds. The product claims to rejuvenate your skin while deepening its color by including vitamins and minerals in the mix. They call it, "The Healthiest Tan on Earth."

The Products

Home and Travel Series is a tinted sunless tanner. The tint allows for instant color as well as a guide so you don't miss any spots! It contains the vitamins and minerals mentioned above for healthy skin. It claims to leave you soft, silky, and tan. The texture is light and smooth, and the smell is fresh. The product also claims to last about a week and fade like a regular suntan.

Vita Tanz Airbrush Formulation is a similar product to the Home and Travel series but it's meant to be applied in the airbrushing method. This allows for a smoother, more even tan. Airbrush tans are rumored to last longer and fade better than other types.

Commercial Booth Formulation is, again, similar to both the Home and Travel Series and the Vita Tanz Airbrush Formulation. However, it's meant to be used in pump and compressor systems. All the skin-beautifying promises are still intact; it's just another method of application.

Vita Tanz Blending Puffs allow you to smooth and blend your tan over all the surfaces of your skin.

Tagalongs are disposable panties. They're great for tanning booths, airbrushing, and even at-home tanning lotion application. Not only do they spare your good underwear from unsightly stains, but they offer great tan lines, too. There's no better way to tell how much color you've gotten.

Orange Palms Preventer counteracts the leftover DHA on your palms after you're done tanning and prevents the muddy-palm look that most often gives away a sunless tan.

Spray Nose Filters are great whether you do airbrush tanning at home or in a salon. Who wants to breathe in sunless tanning mist?

What Reviews of Vita Matrix Self Tanning Say

For testimonials on the Vita Matrix website, click here. Since testimonials on a company's website are not always the best way to choose a product, it's best to check other sources for reviews and comments, as well.

Sunless.com, a very thorough sunless tanning information site, offers reviews on sunless tanners. Vita Matrix is no exception. Here is one poster's take on the solution and others' comments, as well. The original poster said the scent was unoffensive and light. The color, also, was light, but perfect for winter. Fading was better than quite a few and the solution itself wasn't drying (though not particularly moisturizing).

The Verdict

Overall, it seems that most Vita Matrix users were impressed and would find a use for it again—even if they could use it only during the winter months. The formula was nice both in texture and scent (and if you're familiar with sunless tanners, you know that scent is a huge factor!). Another huge plus is the wear of the tanner. They all claim to last a full week and fade like a "normal tan" but not all follow through on the promise. Vita Matrix, it seems, does.
