Dove Summer Glow Review

I am quite pale so i use all sorts of fake tanning products to try and tan up abit! The first 2-3 applications of this was perfect I didn't go as orange as I usually do! But after those days I started to go orange and my legs became streaky...I didn't change the method of application or the amount at all. I was a bit disappointing as it had such a great result in the beginning! But when my mum used it she had fantastic results! So it just depends on your skin type.

I love using this tanner pre summer I have extremely pastey white legs that really never seem to tan no matter what, so Dove Summer glow helps keep my white legs from blinding people :P

I like to apply after exfoliating and shaving and then apply every 2-3 days it's a lovley absorbant cream that is really moisturizing and has a nice scent. Within a few hours I can see it starting to work.

Like some of the other ladies I do have to exfoliate it off after a few applications and start again as it starts to look a little or little orabe

But for the price it's a great tanner

I love this, and buy it every summer, i love being able to build up a natural tan, i like the smell and i love the smooth feel of my legs afterwards. I have used this product for years and have not found one i have liked more than this.! No streaks, natural brownness.. Lovely. I cant wait for next summer!

my favorite gradual tanner! so moisturizing and works gradually to give you a nice, natural tanned glow!! not good if you are looking for an instant tan and you have to make sure you apply evenly!

Love this product, I do advice other friends to try this product, The only Issue I have ever had Is having to wait about 5-10 minutes for it to completely dry before putting clothing on or anything, It is very gradual as it states on the bottle, and You can go to any colour desired.

This is a great product when you want to gradually get a subtle tan, if you apply too much it will give you more of an orange look but if you slowly apply it over a few days you will achieve a nice even natural looking glow.

LOVE this product!! I've tried a lot of different products and I have found this is the best one out! Has a really nice smell (love the smell) and absorbs quickly. The smell can be overpowering if you have a perfume intolerants. It tints/tans the skin without streaks. It has a natural look. I found it worked really quickly too!! Love it!!

Have been using this product for a few years now and it never fails to make my skin shine and look tanned aswell as moisturising it!! I don't use this every day but a few days before an event or going out and it's perfect! Deff apply after a shower and wait and let dry before getting dressed or it may streak, also wash hands throughly after, I've been caught with orangey hands hehe

Always a great price. Easy to apply, never streaky if applied properly ;-)

I've never been good at fake-tanning, and I can honestly say there would be some pretty scary (think streaky, tiger-stripe tan!) looking photos of me out there on Facebook if I wasn't able to rely on this to get my tan on. I can always be confident that this will give me a nice tan, especially if I start a few days before I want the tan to really appear.

It's so easy to rub in evenly, and because it's gradual I never have to worry about streaks! I've had so many comments over the years too, saying what a nice natural tan I've got and asking if I've been out in the sun. When I tell people I did it myself they're always surprised!

Huge bonus too is how awesomely moisturising it is for my skin. Nice to be able to skip the extra step of body lotion in the morning. Improves my skin's appearance, and feeling! It feels nice after applying too, not too greasy like other lotions can.

Been using this for 3+ years now, and can't imagine stopping anytime soon!

I am always afraid of fake tam, even gradual tan moisturiser. I had to give it go though, because my whiter than paper legs need some glowy colour to them for summer months. I don't do tanning in the sun, I love my skin too much for that.

I bought this from my local supermarket on a whim after a friend suggested it to me. The bottle is so cute and even looks like it glows. It has a pop cap top with a hole for the product to be squeezed out of. It's all very normal so far, let's do this!

I showered and exfoliated first to remove any dead skin cells that may hinder the final look. I concentrated alot of the effort around the knee area because that's usually the part that can look orange. After a thorough towel dry I smooth over my legs making sure I get it on evenly. It suggests to wash hands thoroughly to avoid staining hands so after a good scrub I sit in the air to let it dry.

Of course I haven't noticed a difference yet because it is day one of a gradual tanning product. Bring on day two! Here we are showered and exfoliated again, ready to apply to my legs. After letting it air dry I notice an obvious glow that makes my legs look sunkissed and less pasty! Oh I like this.....but when do I know when to stop?

I continued on this same cycle for 7 days. I think by now I can stop because my legs look rather tan and like I am happy and confident to show them to the world without scaring the sun away. After stopping at a shade that I am happy with I wonder how long it will last before I need to start the cycle again. 5 days later it's time to reapply. For me it didn't last long but for an affordable price and a little bit of effort without sun damage, I am hooked. I shant go back to instant tan or sunbathing. This here is where my loyalties lie. I salute you Dove!
