I really do like this!

I frequently use this and have for years. It does exactly what it says it should. A lot of fake tanning products I've found streaked or looked unnatural, however this product works wonders on my skin and doesn't leave me patchy, moisturises really well too.

Tips: Make sure to wash off palms straight after use.

Not too bad

I like that it's a moisturiser. It goes on easily and dries reasonably quickly. It does have an odour, not unpleasant, but does linger. I have pale skin but use the darker version. The lighter just isn't the right colour. The darker one works well, but can leave darker patches on subsequent applications.

Not for me

Guys. I will be honest. This product has a horrible fake tan smell, the outcome makes you look orange, no matter how much you wash your hands after the application they still manage to go orange.

Great for everyday use

I love this product for everyday use in summer, as it is pretty natural looking (not perfect but pretty good), and I can keep topping it up so it doesn't wear off and look patchy. My one gripe is that it smells pretty bad to me! Not bad enough to stop me using it, but if I find one that smells better I will probably switch.

Tan Roulette anyone?

I love that you can moisturise your skin and tan at the same time.... but for me that's the only highlight.

This runs more on the orange/red side rather then a green and brown base. You can't see if you've put to much in one spot or not enough. only until it develops do you see your master piece or trying to find clothes or something to cover up. Its kind of like a game of roulette.

(I would love it if they made this with a colour payoff so you can see where you have put it) When tans first started becoming more of the norm, you know that TAN smell; this smells like that. The bottle open and closes well and is easy to use

Nice and Easy

I have tried this in both the Light-Medium and Medium-Dark (or deep) and I really enjoyed the pay off of both shades. It’s much easier to use than a traditional self tanner and doesn’t leave a mess everywhere. I make sure I use a body scrub first and then apply as I would a normal body lotion. The smell is pleasant, not unlike their other products and fades away nicely so you don’t need to scrub and scrub to remove the colour. I have pretty pale skin and find 3 days of applying this morning and night will give me a nice natural tan on my body I would do it for about 5 days with the lighter shade. I wouldn’t recommend using this lotion everyday unless you have tried it for a while as while it gives a fantastic glow it will start to look orangey if applied too often. I’ve tried many gradual tan products and this is by far my favourite as I can stop using it for a few days to let the colour fade and then start right back up again for a consistent “tan”.

Tips: If you have patchy or dry skin then maybe avoid using this product or test it first as the colour will cling to patches. Only use a small amount and be sure to wash your hands with soap and water after application so you don’t get orange palms.

A nice gradual colour

I used this product quite a few times as I was going through my teenage years, it gave a nice colour build up, but I would also find that I would get some colour deposits that I didn't want because I didn't even it out as much as I thought I did! The smell is something I can never forget, I can smell it on other people as they walk past and I'm really not a fan of it!

Tips: Apply moisturiser over your dry areas before using this

Not a fan of the smell

This product reminds me of being in high school and I still get a bit of ptsd thinking about it. It would leave me streaky and orange, the smell was over powering and the product didn't really soak it, you can always feel the product like stuck to your skin which was unpleasant.

Tips: Don't pack it on or you will regret it

Glowing skin

I love this product, it keeps my skin feeling lovely and soft, doesn’t make my skin look unnatural, the tan is gradual and subtle. Gives you a tan without having to spend time on the sun....LOVE IT!!!

Summer glow.

I'm fairly pale so I'm always cautious with tanning products going orange on my skin. I can use this with confident as it's gradual and the colour isn't too unnatural.

I only need to use it twice before I get a nice hint of colour. I'm not a huge fan of the scent this product leaves behind so I seldomly use now and only on my legs when I have an event coming up.

This can streak easily especially if good skin prep isn't done, so make sure you exfoliate a few days before hand.
