My quest to find the best sunnless tanning product continues . . .
Renewal Sunless Tan Ultra-fine Airbrush Mist is Rite-Aid's version of Neutrogena's Sunless Tanning MicroMist, which was a pretty good product when I tried it many years ago. So I thought I'd try Rite-Aid's knock-off to see if it was comparable. I chose the Medium shade.
The Pros:
Renewal Sunless Tan was super easy to apply thanks to their spray-from-any-angle can. Also, as long as you keep the can moving while spraying to evenly distribute the mist, there's no need to rub it in or spread it around with your hands. In fact, my hands stayed perfectly clean. It dries quickly, so you can get dressed and get on with your day. Also, it did not rub off on my clothes or leave embarrassing streaks, like the L'oreal product did in my last review.
The Cons:
Color change was more subtle than I would have liked, so it will take more applications to achieve the desired shade on my skin, but its so quick and easy to use, I don't mind. It does have that familiar odor that seem to plague all sunless tanning products, although it was much fainter than others I have tried. Also, my legs seem very dry the next day, so make sure to apply lotion once its dried.
Overall, I like this product, but I will continue to try others until I find the perfect one.

REVIEW: Loreal New Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Serum
I haven't used self-tanners for a few years now, but I used to use them quite a bit. That's what you have to do if you don't have a tan in March in Southern California. Everyone is expected to always have a little color, no matter what time of year it is.
So, I hadn't been outside much and I was self-conscious about my legs showing so I grabbed one at Rite-Aid on my way to the check out line. Careless of me, I know.
Loreal's Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Serum is a throwback to the days when self-tanners first came on the market. They were awful back then. It took forever to dry, it smelled bad, it made the person smell bad the next day, it stained your clothes, and it left orange streaks in random places.
Sublime Bronze does all that except take forever to dry. Unfortunately, this product dries too fast to give the person a chance to blend it in.
The bottle says: "Streak-free". Not true.
It's very frustrating because you can't tell if there are streaks until the color shows up hours later. Just like back in the day.
Seriously, this is a horrible product. I will not buy it again.
