Summer Glow

Not to orangey, and gives a nice slow build up. Doesn't irritate after shaving which is good because I have sensitive skin. Must remeber to wash off hands though or the hands stain quite badly.

Tips: Apply moisturiser around knees and ankles first to stop it becoming patchy.

Summer glow

No good for sensititve skin - Thought this product was going well, was starting to get a slight bronze colour happening, but then broke out in a rash that took over a week to go away. Was not expecting that, as I am usually find with Dove moisturisers. The smell was quite strong also.

Dove Summer Glow

Fake tans usually scare me because I hate the look of being too orange or too obviously fake tanned. Dove summer glow is easy to put on evenly and it doesn't leave streaky lines. It makes my skin feel really nice as well. The smell isn't too bad, it's not as strong or long lasting as many other fake tans, and it's not too orange.

Tips: I put this on after the shower while my skin is still warm about every 2 days. It isn't as instant as many other fake tans and it takes a few applications before you have a noticeable tan. Wash your hands straight after as it stains your hands, especially in between your fingers!!

Slow Tanner

I purchased this at the end of winter to use on my legs as I seem to tan on the top easily bit not my legs. I liked the price at $7 for 400 ml and the fact it is a moisturiser as well. I have used numerous tanning creams in the past which grab your skin and turn orange so prefer to use a slower tanner that is easier to control the colour. This is easy to apply and scent is ok but as with all tanners does have a slight scent which I don't like -not noticible immediately but slightly there all the same . I have yet to apply a false tan that does not have this particular scent and if you use false tans you will know what I mean. With Dove it is not strong however so easy to overcome. I only use false tan on my legs so easy to apply daily and I found after about 3 days I could see a very light tan starting . I like the slow approach as it is less noticable and looks like the sun is just doing it's job plus there is no sudden strong colour with possible orange overtones. I have found using this tanner my skin is not dry and a quick rub in each day keeps my legs looking just slightly tan which is a really natural look. Easy to use and a nice moisturiser as well

Tips: Use every day -little and often to get a nice light tan.

Decent

I am someone who cannot bring myself to sunbathe or allow myself to burn (slip,slop,slap and wrap for me!) so self tanners would be great, if I could find one that isnt streaky.

This product is pretty good, it did give me a nice tan but even with proper skin prep I did notice it was a bit patchy in places as it got darker, not overly noticeable from a distance but you could see it close up which could be a tad embarassing.

I used it after a spray tan and it worked really well, it helped prolong my tan which was great so for me this product has been a bit hit and miss so its hard to say if I like it or not!!

A good gradual tanner

This is a very good self tanning lotion for a natural gradual glow. It is easy to apply and has a double purpose as a good body moisturiser too. It gradually tans your skin each day giving it a nice "sun kissed" natural tan, unlike other products which make your skin orange looking. The bad side is it has a funny smell. But gives great results

Tips: Wash our hands thoroughly after using.

Tanning product that is full proof

This gradual tanning moisturiser is AWESOME! You can do a coat at night and in the morning if you have an event that arvo/evening. It will tan you quickly but will still look naturally. Otherwise you can do it every second day for an on going natural tan. Love that it has less odour than other tanning products so you can still sleep at night without it being too overpowering. Have used this product for many summers and before island holidays to get that sun kissed look. You won't regret using this product.

Tips: I apply to my knees, wrist and elbows then will dab so there is no extra cream residue, no one wants orange!

like :)

I am sooo pale so when ever I want to be abit tanner on my legs I put this on the night before then wash it off in the morning as I dont like the smell of it after it has been put on. Leaves me with a natural look, the only people who notice i have it on is the people who know how white I really am haha

Tips: I get the lightest one and I put it on a few times so do the first coat let it dry then do the 2nd coat and sometimes a 3rd coat just depends how dark I want to be, Reason I get the lightest one is for that reason I can put it on more then once for a more darker look. Not a fan of being pale haha
