I have used to towels before, however, when I work out the tan rubs off. Will this product last through a good sweat?

It really depends on when you apply vs when you work out. I apply at night after a workout and shower. Then that way my tan is fresh the next morning. If you work out in the morning you may sweat out some of the tan.

I would put the product on the day before. Once it has been on for hours it won't wash or come off. Its not a lotion that can sweat off. I put it on at night before bed then shower in the morning. It will last for days after. Hope this helps.

To avoid it rubbing out I recommend using the product overnight. This allows it to set better and what little residue there is will wash off when showering. I've work out afterwards and never had it stain clothing or rub off. Just be careful applyinbg too much to joints.e.g., elbows or it will build up and look too dark.

I usually take a bath after I have put it on, after several hours,it is great,i don't have a problem, if you let it stay on your skin,anmd absorbe,i don't think it will rub off on your clothes.

The instructions are the put it on and let it sit for at least 4 hours before taking a shower. During that time period it will come off on your clothes. The product gives you a good tan that's for sure. My chief complaint is that it doesn't last a full week, so it can't be a weekly application thing. You'd need to put it on about every 4 days to keep it consistent which is just way too much application for me.

I'm not a big sweat-er, but it hasn't showered off, nor rubbed off when drying. Does that help?

I do not sweat under my armpits with this product. HOWEVER do not apply large amount because it will rub off on your shirt.

The simple answer is I don't really know. I usually apply before I get dressed and so far all of of my clothes are fine. I wouldn't recommend using for sporting or similar activity. It seems to run off soon after you begin to sweat.

I wear it through an aggressive workout and shower and it holds up okay. It doesn't seem to be the water that makes it lose it's stickiness more just rubbing it with my body or clothes. I use it I. My calf and I definitely notice a reduction in pain but only get on to two days out of each application. I still would recommend this product! Good luck!

There is a typical self-tanner smell from these towels. DHA - the simple sugar that causes the "tanning" of the skin releases this odor when it reacts with the skin and will be present after using any self tanner containing it. The level of smell is related to the amount of DHA in the product and to the level of coloring that occurs on the skin - an unfortunate side effect of the process. I found these towels create a natural but noticable color without an overpowering smell which only lasts until you shower. Not a bad trade off.

This product does not absorb into your skin, you will feel little sticky & you know it's on your skin. It stay on very well even after sweating from exercising.

It will definitely wash off if you are in water a lot;as any self tanner would. I recently went on a vacation to Florida and I used this product the night befor I got on the plane and it lasted for about 4-5 days before it completely washed off. I was in water and taking showers frequently. Hope that helped :)

Yes! Used as suggested, these " towels" will give you a tan which looks as though the sun tanned your body and not an artificial chemical!

I think it is. I sweat a lot so a normal towel just doesn't cut it. I have a "yogitoes" towel as well but I much prefer the Manduka towel to the point that I no longer use the yogitoes towel and only keep it in case my Manduka towel is dirty. I haven't used the yogitoes towel for six months. I highly recommend the Manduka towel. It is light weight and drys quickly. If you sweat like I do, get the extra long version to get more water retention.

It's a self tanner so it does not come off unless it wears off. I am a Pilates instructor and fitness professional. No problem with the sweat

I don't use a towel. The mat is fine until it gets wet with sweat, then it gets very slippery, at least for me. I have been told by a friend that this improves over time with usage, that the mat requires a 'break in' period.

I used it in the tanning bed when I was going. I tan outside now and it is a very good product.

This towel is single use only. It is quite wet when taken out of the package. By the time you do your whole body the moisture is pretty much gone. Once the towel is dried out a bit I go over areas that are likely to streak......such as ankles and elbows. I rub these areas quite vigorously. I love this product. I never experience streaking and the color is nice. The towels are so easy to use. You will find you don't need to wet them and in fact doing so would probably dilute the tanning solution.

Hi Wendy, I go to the gym at least twice a week here in Maryland and use the Belkin Armband all the time. There is a slight bit of moisture on my nano when I'm done, but it has not harmed the nano to this point. However, the conditions you are running in, I would probably use a plastic 'baggie' over top of the armband as I personally do not believe it would keep the nano dry over time. Again...just my obervations and opinion. Hope you are doing well. chuck
