Dove Summer Glow Review

I have used this product for a few years, love it and will continue to use it. All year round suitable, works well and is a nice colour (I use the darker one) - takes off the "glow" of whiteness that a lot of us have lol

I bought this at the supermarket thinking it was just a normal moisturizer as I was in a rush. When I read it was a light tanner, I was a bit hesitant to put it on my skin as I am VERY pale and thought it may make my legs look out of place. It takes a while for the tanner to start working and be noticeable, but I was pleasantly surprised when I started to see a nice 'summer glow' as they call it, which is great during the Winter months where I get no sun at all. I don't know how to describe the smell of the lotion, but it sticks for ages, not that I'm complaining, it's lovely :) It leaves my skin amazingly soft and smooth for hours afterwards, I generally only apply after showers though. The consistency was what you would expect from a normal moisturizing lotion, and has a slight skin toned colour from the tanning part. A little goes a long way as well, I can see this product lasting me a lot longer than any other moisturizer I've used in the past.

If you don't want to do a full on tanning application then this is a great everyday product, not strong smelling, easy to apply and doesn't stain hands. Use post shower and exfoliations and it's pretty even streak free. It's not going to give you full on tanning coverage but a little colour and smooth summoner sun kissed look.

I've used many a fake tan and have got to say I find this to be the least annoying! It goes on evenly and develops into a natural sun kissed look and gradually builds. Although, as with most fake tans it is good to have a bit of natural colour to enhance.

Used the light colour on my Scottish, white skin...Gives a nice natural colour when used every day.. Drawback is that still has a funny smell tho!!

I really enjoy using this product - it smells nice, is easy to apply, soaks in and leaves your skin feeling moisturised as well as tanned. Doesn't leave stains on your hands and doesnt leave streaks - a really nice natural colour and even result. The only thing I find a drawback is it does tend to leave darker results on dry or thick areas of skin - such as knees, toe knuckles, and heels/ankles. Make sure you use a good exfoliator and deep moisturiser before hand to prep these areas.

Sometimes when using this product its great and I look really nice and other I turn really orange! I use the same method and amount everytime so don't understand why this happens. Aside from that its a good product and smells AMAZING

I like how you don't get streaks or tan lines, and you don't need to wait for it to dry. makes your skin feel good too, take a couple of days to build your tan though and you need to keep applying it everyday.

I'm someone who has fairly pale skin and a keen eye for anything orange. With my skin tone it didn't turn out as 'brown' as i would have hoped but it left my legs feeling really supple and hydrated (this is coming from one who deals with extremely dry legs 24/7!)

I use this product on my arms and legs at the start of the season and then occasionally throughout the summer. I have found the best way to apply is to shower first, apply a moisturising lotion - wait 5 minutes - and then apply to the arms and legs and this helps prevent streaking and uneven patches. I am not so sure that I like the fragrance as to mee all self tan products tend to have a 'lasting' smell. It is definitely better than most, and if you use for a couple of days to give you a light tan it does not seem to go orange but rather a golden colour.
