You can - but you are wasting the product.

The product won't 'set' and will be a lot lighter - not to mention there will be no actual drying.

It is 'moisturizing' (see description) - so why use moisturizer before? Waste of both.

yes but u must wait till the lotion is fully absorbed

If you are planning on wearing white with this product, I would forgo the moisturizer (especially in your Texas weather) because although the TANtalizer does not melt off, the moisturizer you use before it may. The more the TANtalizer adheres to your skin directly, the less likely it will budge.

I used it after a moisturizer and it was fine, but I live in San Francisco and use it in the evenings. Over my moisturizer, it was more blendable but the color was also more sheer. It takes longer to dry when used on top of my moisturizer, and letting it fully dry is key to not having it rub off. Hope that helps.

I would apply lotion AFTER applying the bronzing luminizer. Why? Because the lotion will even out any mistake areas and give it a finishing touch. if you're not into the sparkly effect of this, the lotion will minimize that, too.

Yes. I use it on my legs. Gives a light, natural glow and tan, and is not dark.

Yes! I actually mix mine with a little lotion to highlight my legs. Too much and you look dipped in gold.

You should moisturize before using ANY bronzing/luminizing product. :)

Read about the product!

it is a TEMPORARY makeup. Yes it fades if you rub on things. It is like when you put on liquid foundation - exactly like that, just for your body. It is sparkly, and bronze. It will rub off on clothes no matter what, but moreso where it rubs against your clothes (if you put it on legs and your skirt is tight, it'll rub off...same if you put it on your chest and wear a bra).

Also, it is a temp makeup, as it says in the product description. It wears off at your next shower and wears off gradually with wear, just as your makeup wouldn't be flawless 48 hours later.

When I used this product it did not rub off on my clothes. You will need to let it dry a couple of minutes before dressing.

at first i loved this; but then when my friends said i look kinda orange-y and esp after i saw that it does rub off on everything!!! i put this on after shower and get ready dry my hair etc so i have plenty of time for it to completely dry before dressing...but to my disappointment at the end of the night my clothes are stained

it does rub off on clothes, i apply it before i get dress

I use the cream for my torso, arms and face and the mousse for my legs. I find legs are harder to tan and the concentrated bronzer in the mousse works better for my legs!

It lasts several hours and will not rub off on clothes if you allow it to dry before dressing.

A little goes a long way. It's a bit too much sheen to use as a tanner, but awesome mixed with a little lotion to highlight the shins and calves and shoulders. It only lasts until washed off...or through one evening here in my humid climate. I did see a little rubbed on the edge of my white shorts, but not too noticeable.

It will last until you wash it off and I honestly have not had it rub off on any of my clothes. I do wait 10 minutes before dressing to be sure it is nice and dry though. I hope you like it. Much better than self-tanners where you never know what color your skin will turn out!

It does rub off on clothes/sheets. Even after I have waited an hour. If I wear something white, it will get stained from this product.

I didn't find any problem with it rubbing off on my clothes and it lasted all night for me, you just have to make sure that you give yourself enough time between the time that you put it on and the time that you put on your clothes.

Read about each - they aren't one for dark skins, one for lighter.

They are the same color, the mousse is for helping to temp. eliminate cellulite. This one is just a tinted liquid body makeup.

They both are wonderful. I have fair skin and freckles and both products are great. There is no streaking with either of them. It does seem like the Luminizer is darker, but since the mousse is water resistant, I just apply a little more of it to get my skin as dark as I like. The Luminizer isn't water resistant, but there's more product in the bottle than the mousse has. But you can wear the mousse for two days if you don't wash it off with soap...maybe longer if you don't care very much about hygiene! :-)

i never tried the mousse. i'm very light skin and after i apply the lorac tantalizer i look like i have a tan, it look even better when you are tan however i been wearing it the hole winter and i'm very pale

In the winter time I am pasty white so what I do is just squeeze a drop of the tantalizer in with my regular body lotion, so you can control the level of bronzing. This is my favorite bronzer of all time! I've tried so many and its the best in my opinion!

That's tough. I like them both! I say, get them both, and apply the bronzing lumizer over the mousse. If I were to pick just one, I'd pick the mousse because it will tan you for every-day. If you're looking for enhancement, though, this is the product for you.

I have not tried the mousse, but I really like TANtalizer.

The color isn't too dark and blends really well!

I spot tested both products (although I only own the Luminizer), and feel that the Luminizer is a better product for light skintones. The mousse has a faster drying time during application, and leaves naturally fair skin vulnerable to spots and streaking, if not applied properly. The Luminizer is just dark enough to give a healthy glow, and you can control additional depth by applying another coat for added color.

The product info says the answer to this:

This quick-drying makeup instantly gives your skin a sexy, flawless, better-than-natural tan, without streaking.

See "quick drying makeup" and "instantly" - so no, it is not a self-tanner in regards to building color over time like with spray tans, etc.

It is a makeup.

i dont leave reviews but just felt i had to speak up! anything that's "washable in the shower" or "comes right off with/in the shower" doesn't that also mean will rub off/come off when perspiring or any other activity! idk how it didn't rub off on the girls who say it didnt rub off even after dancing their a** off but

no

No. It lasts well, but does not stain or "tan" the skin.
No smell, either! Love it.

No, it just gives you a temporary bit of color that washes off in the shower. Think of it as a glowing lotion. It's awesome!

It is not a self tanner! It just leaves a subtle glow and washes off in the shower!

No...it's a 'make-up'/highlighter to me...washes off and leaves no tan behind

Nope, just a bronzer... like tinted moisturizer, only darker and with a sheen to it.

This is a great bronzer that stays put as well as one can expect from a body makeup lotion. However, it WILL run in certain conditions. I noticed all the users who answered this question so far are from somewhere north of the Mason Dixon Line- i.e. the northern states where humidity is almost NEVER a problem, and the hottest days of the year generally don't exceed 85 degrees. I live at the bottom of the country, in a sub-tropical marshland. If you live in a similar climate then be prepared for this product to run, streak, and get all over your clothes. To minimize this I mix a little of the Lorac luminizer with an oil-free, fast absorbing moisturizer like Soap and Glory's. You get a little less color by diluting but still benefit from its skintone-evening properties and will get a more subtle sheen which I prefer to the heavy shimmer of the pure product. So if/when it does run/streak after sweating it's much less noticeable. Personally, I think St. Tropez's One Night Only body bronzer has more staying power- although the color is darker and it dries fast so you have to apply it quickly. I use the st. Tropez self tanner application glove for both the Lorac and the st. Tropez bronzers and find this to be the best method for even application.

It is a makeup - so yes. Just like with anything else.

I've sweated a LOT wearing this, and it will come off on clothes and run if you aren't careful.

It's makeup. Like a tinted lotion.

i don't know because thank god i dont really sweat but when it gets wet it comes off

will not run if you sweat, only when you wash it off or splash water on areas bronzed.

Yes this will run.

The anser is yes, but I don't notice it as much on day 2. I sweat a ton...and I don't even care, that's how great this is.

I had absolutely no problem with it running. I danced all night & it even looked wonderful the next day.

I danced in a nightclub while wearing it and had no problems whatsoever.

Your problem was mixing it with lotion...

You didn't apply enough, or evenly either - that's why it is streaky. Make sure to exfoliate your legs - it may be ebcause you have dry patches.

if your skin is dry, take a shower then put lotion on and let it dry, if you apply the tantalizer right away it's gonna look messy. you have to be patience when applying this product and rub it till is even .it looks amazing on legs

same thing happened to me. Way too uneven for the legs.

Use a little bit, spread it evenly with your hands, let it dry, then fix any streaky areas by blending a little lotion over them. This stuff looks really, really good on top of a little self-tanner, as well. I have applied this over my self-tanner within minutes of applying the tanner, and it still works great. If you don't like the sparkly effect, add a little lotion on top of the bronzer once it's dried (covering the whole area of application). You can also use a tissue to rub off any areas that might be a little too Twilight vampire sparkly. ;)

If I exfoliate and moisturize the night before, it works beautifully. I have very dry skin, but the product does not blotch. however, since I live in a humid climate, moisturizing and then bronzing immediately was too much: the bronzer did not dry as quickly as usual.

Exfoliate and shave your legs first. Rub a little bit in the plams of your hands to warm it up before you wipe it on your legs.

I haven't had that issue, but I have used many a bronzer/sunless tanner/tinted moistuizer... DO NOT USE MOISTURIZER WITH IT. That is why it cakes up. I know some people might argue that they need moistuizer first and then use it, but I am telling you, try it without and you'll probably stop having issues. If you must use a moistuizer as well, put it on first, wait like 20 min for it to really soak in, and then use the Lorac. I have very fair skin and have worn it many times on my legs without issue... I just put it on after I dry off from the shower.

Depends on if you know how to do laundry and how delicate your item is.

I always ALWAYS wear it with dark items because it doesn't always come out of light colors.

it washes off fabrics easily, but not from leather jackets and bags :(

Very easily, I didn't have to pre-treat my clothes or re-wash them.

It washed out of my white shorts easily...no worrys

It never rubbed off on my white wedding dress or my husband white dress shirt, so I have no complaints. Maybe other reviewers were using too much, a little goes a long way.

I cant get the stains out of my white clothes. I wash in warm water and dont put them in the dryer, but the stains dont come out. : (

Yes. It comes out of most clothing.

How is a user going to be able to answer this?

Only you know your face. This is for questions to other customers who have tried the product. No one is going to have an answer for you.

Only thing that can happen is someone else with sensitive skin can say "it did" or "it didn't" hurt my skin. And that is useless info, why? because your sensitive skin isn't their sensitive skin.

Try going TO a store and testing it. Or, find out what products you've broken out from (or had issues) from before, make sure you know the ingredients and avoid them.

yes, a lot of my friends that have sensitive skin use it too

My daughter and I have sensitive skin, and we did not experience any irritation after using it every other day for two weeks. Your experience may vary.

I have very sensitive skin and it does not irritate it at all.

I have sensitive skin as well. This product has never irritated me.

yes- I have breakout easily if a product doesn't agree with my skin. I had this on for almost 2 days and didn't have any issues.

I also have somewhat sensitive skin (face). Only used it on my arms and legs. No problems w/breakout, rash, etc.

Depends on your face. Just as with any other product, you should test it out.

While on a business trip, I used the Lorac TANtalizer body bronzing luminizer instead of makeup on my face. I have pretty sensitive skin and it did NOT cause me to break out. However, in general, I would not likely use this on my face, but would probably recommend using the bronzing powder that others have mentioned.

if you have sensitive skin i wouldn't recommend it because it can make you break out but i used it on my face before, but they have the same one for the face and also the lorac tanalizer baked bronzer powder for face and body

No I would not use this on my face. I would be worried that it would break me out. Also because it's liquid the application may be tricky, you might not have a lot of control with it.
Instead , LORAC makes a phenomenal TANtalizer baked bronzer. It comes with a great brush that will allow precise application. It has shimmer in it, so keep that in mind. If you want a great bronzer sans-shimmer I would recommend the bronzer by Benefit.

Yes, but avoid eyes.

I have applied to my neck after my hands are fairly dry from appling to my skin. Not sure I would use on my face.

"You could" but I personally would find it to be too dark and heavy for the face. My application stops above the neck. When I use this product on my body I may use a darker shade of foundation (if I am more tanned) or my best bet is NARS laguna bronzer. :)

Read the info about this...it says right there.

This is just a skin makeup - not a self-tanner.

it says right in the instructions/info "quick-drying MAKEUP INSTANTLY..."

It washes off in the shower.

it could be but the shimmer in it makes it more suitable for night time use only

Washes off on the shower, not a daily builder

washes off in shower but doesn't transfer to clothes readily

it comes off when you take a shower however it makes your skin look amazing
