Dove Summer Glow Review

I have been using this product in the dark skin colour for years now (I have pale skin) and absolutely love it for subtle glow that you can build up without going streaky. Only issue is the overpowering smell - which most fake tans have.

I needed a tan before going to Australia and wanted to maintain my tan afterwards so brought this product. I initally used it morning and night but it was so good I had to cut down to once every two days. It takes about 3 days to start showing but from there its so good. It smells nice and is a reasonable price.

Love this stuff. I'm super pale and this is the only tanning thing I use. It starts off as a subtle glow, not too noticable but each day you build it up it gets gradually darker until it turns into such a nice tan! It's great for paler people so you don't go orange and you can get your desired effect. It smells amazing, lasts for ages and moisturises great! It's a good price an does it's job well. It lasts a while too I usually put it on at night times but you just have to let it sink in before bed. I love that it doesn't to streaky, it's very smooth and natural looking. It comes in a squeeze bottle so it's easy to put straight onto your legs :)

This is a good daily moisture that gives u a nice tan, that doesn't look fake, only problem is u have to wait abit for it to dry so u can put your clothes on

I actually find this product to be one of the best moisterizers out there, I have really dry skin and most moisterizers just absorb and my skin goes back to bein dry and flaky within a few hours. But I find this product to leave my skin soft and moisterizered over night :) As well as subtly leaving a nice tan over summer!

I loved loved loved this product when I used it! I was 20ish when I used this product and used it for a good 3 years. I think I just ran out and didn't buy more. If I came across it again I would definitely re purchase. However my tan has been my last worry with 3 kids keeping me busy lol

I always applied this after having a shower. Making sure that I was applying the same amount to each arm ad leg. Using a little more for my tummy, chest and neck. My partner at the time used to do my back for me.

It really is a gradual build up. Don't expect miracles over night but it does build a nice glow to your skin. I mist certainly went from paw to having a soft tan. Which was nice because I've been sprayed tanned before and good grief never again, I really didn't like the instant tan.

Once applied make sure you do wash your hands!!! If you don't? You end up with dark palms lol and nobody wants that.

I purchased this from the Warehouse sometime ago. I use it mainly on my legs. I have mine in normal to dark skin. After i have a shower I apply this to my legs. The product itself is a light pink thick cream which once applied will give your skin a sun-kissed glow and will build a gradual light tan.

I love the way this works on my skin. It comes in really handy in winter if I want to look tan for something. This is a moisturiser that i use all year round. It's relatively easy to apply though I would make sure you get even application as if not applied properly can look patchy. I always like to make sure that i get it on my feet and keeping my knee straight when apply so I don't get orange patches in these areas.

I love the smell its a fresh floral scent. My skin feels hydrated and soft. The tan itself gives a nice light one which is noticeable after just one application. It's crazy affordable. I picked up a big pump bottle of it today at Pak N Save for only $5.00 I'm currently using a 250ml bottle of it.

It gave a light very nice tan after using it 2-3 times. Smells average but lovely for a tanning cream as these usually don't smell to pleasant. Would defiantly use it again, maybe with another tanning cream as well.

I have fair skin, but I use the summer glow for medium to dark skin. I find that it is still gradual, but I don't need to do as many applications, so it saves time and product. It is easy to apply, not too thick so spreads on well, and as it is quite greasy you can tell where you have applied and don't miss any spots. I even find it easy to put on my own back. I find it works really well as a moisturiser too.It makes my skin soft, and I feel like it helps with break outs a little bit. I have sensitive skin, some moisturisers give me a rash, but not this one.

On the negative side, I don't like the smell and it leaves me feeling a bit slimy all day or night (I usually put it on at night so I can wash it off in the morning, and don't have to wear it around as I hate the feeling). Sometimes I have to shower twice to completely remove the smell and slimy feel.

In saying that, it is the best tanner I've used so far, and I love the results, so I continue to use it. A few improvements could help but otherwise, great product.

NB: When i have used the one for fair to medium skin in the past I haven't noticed much of a tan until I have applied it several times... So I'm not too impressed with the light shade, but I like the dark one!

I really like the tanning properties. It doesnt look orange and looks natural. The only thing is that it takes forever to soak in so I have to wait a long time before I put any clothes on.
