Dove Summer Glow Review

I think this gradual tanner tans more than other brands I have used, which is why I like it as you start to see results after just one application. I use it for about 7 days in a row then apply once every couple of days after I've reached my desired tan colour.

This product is excellent value for money. After just one application in the evening, skin is a light brown by the morning. And it is a great moisturiser. Takes about 10mins to dry. It does have a slight smell. No colour comes off on sheets.

As with any tanning product, the most I would use it for is about 3-4 days in a row and then leave it to gradually wear off before starting to re-apply a week or so later - otherwise you will get a build up of the tanning colour, which will eventually not look that great. A fake tan is never going to be as even or last like a real one and there will always be little imperfections around elbows, knees, ankles, etc.

I also use this on my face and it works very well. It is pretty forgiving...I have never had any dark patches or signs of a fake tan on my face after applying it.

I recommend it to friends.

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

Dove summer glow is a great gradual tanning lotion it gives a nice tan/golden glow without looking to orange, I use this all the time and dont get any streaks or uneven colouring!

I have been using this product for 5 plus years ... and just love it... so easy to use and the results are subtle not like some products that look like a tanning lotions have been applied

I have used this product several times! Works well and does add tan gradually but sometimes I feel like on my feet it doesn't tan it goes more orange, and there is nothing worse than orange feet! The smell I am not a huge fan of because it can be quite strong so people can tell that you are wearing the product.

Have used this most summers. So easy to use as a body lotion, blends well and gives a natural tan that you can easily build by day use.

As far as moisturising self tanners go, this is my favourite. Im not a huge fan of them as i do feel they still all have a slight yellowy/orange look to them. but of all the ones i've tried this one was the best for me im really fair so its really hard to find one that doesnt look orange straight away this was great on my skin. Plus it left my skin feeling nice as well, no building up on knees and ankles etc.

I havent used this for a while as I have recently found a product that better suits my needs. It says it creates a gradual tan, which it most certainly does, but you need to ensure to apply it evenly and rub in thoroughly to make sure the tan is even, if not done correctly there will be fear of blotchyness. In saying this I did use the product for approximately 5 years before I found something better.

I use to use this product quite a bit while on the hunt for the perfect fake-tan! The gradual build up of tanning seems like a good idea to begin with, but doesn't actually work that well in reality. The reason for this being that you're constantly applying new fake tan over the top of old tan that is starting to come off in different places. The result ends up being a quite uneven, streaky look. It product also gives you a very yellowish tone which doesn't look very natural. It also smells weird and the smell lingers on your skin and clothes/bedding etc!
