No, the applicator mitt is sold desperately at $6.99 retail price. It is basically a requirement because if you try to apply this mousse with your hands and not a mitt, it will be a disaster. Streaks everywhere

No, the applicator mit is sold seperately. I was using gloves to apply and would notice patches that didnt get rubbed in very well. After buying the mitt, I have no problem blending at all!

It took only four pumps to do my whole body so I'm assuming, if used as directed (1-2x's per week) it will last two or three months.

Question
Compare to original
I have fair skin in the winter, and I LOVE the original st tropez bronzing mousse, and I bought this with the intentions that it would be a deeper color, however it did not make me anywhere near as tan as the orinal so I was confused. I did however love the green undertone because my skin is more yellow/olive. Then I thought, maybe it's designed for deeper skin-tones not for a deeper color. Did I have a bad experience or is my 'theory' correct? Thoughts? Thanks!

I found if you want a deeper color you simply layer the product. I will put on one layer, and then 10 minutes later I'll apply a second layer. I get the best results that way, and I'm very fair skin toned.

This happened to me as well. I expected a deeper, richer tan but it actually appeared to be orangish on my skin in the morning after I washed off the color guide. It wasnt a deep tan at all.

I thought the same thing! I expected it to be darker than original formula. I got great results applying it two nights in a row, with light exfoliation in between

I felt the same, maybe you should leave it in longer. I still got more compliments on it than the original one though.

Question
How does this color compare to the original mousse's color?
I love the color that the original mousse turns me before I shower - but once I wash, it is much much lighter. Does this dark mousse leave you (post shower) with about the color you have with the original's application or darker? How do the two compare? Thank you!

This gives a much darker and in my opinion more natural tan. I feel that the original made me orange.

This is very diffrent from the regular self tanning mouse. First of all, it is green when you pump it out and green on your skin. Literally, you will look like a stick of celery. But when you shower in the morning, you will be as tan as probably two consecutive applications of the regular. The green should wash down the drain, leaving you a nice golden color. I have used and loved the regular St tropez mouse but will be switching to this cause it takes less applications to achieve the tan I want.

Question
Anyone have a reaction to the dark and not the regular mousse?
I have used the regular mousse with great results. I decided to opt for the dark, and I had a reaction :( I've only used it once, so I'm not 100% it's the product. Anyone else have this experience. I'm apprehensive to try it again. But I don't want to write it off in the off chance it's not this product to blame.

I presumed the two had the same ingredients, just different amounts. But after looking at the bottle, I see I'm wrong. Please advise!

I have a slew of allergies and was okay with this product. It works even better when you apply it with their regular mousse at the same time; however, this one washes off very quickly. I stopped using it when I noticed my bath water and clothing turning green!
