Most natural summer glow at the supermarket

I've tried a few different versions on this and none of them rate as this one does. Its the most natural. So many others leave you streaky or orange...this one just leaves a summer kiss on your skin. Its reasonably priced and does what it says it does and smells nice.

Tips: Make sure you ex foliate before you apply.

Dove Summer Glow review

I have used this product a few times and it does moisturise nicely but I feel personally it doesn't leave a very natural look on my legs quite orangey and fake. It is sold for a good price at supermarkets so if you are on the run and need something I recommend

Tips: Apply after showering and before dressing. Wait a few minutes for the product to absorb.

Jaundice chic

Fake tan and me have a love-hate relationship, and unfortunately my experience with this product leans more towards 'hate' than 'love'. The bottle boasts that it will give your skin a 'natural' looking tan gradually, what it did in fact do was turn me yellow; which to be fair is a natural look, but not a healthy or appealing one.I guess I could be 'too pale' for fake tan, but the bottle swatches showing 'before and after' weren't too much darker than me.

The second thing that disappointed me about this self-tan was the sheer greasiness of it and how it seemed to sit on top of the skin rather than sinking in like it promised to do. I waited about an hour for it to 'fully absorb'- hoping that the greasiness would disappear, but nope.

Overall I would not recommend this product to people with very fair skin, but perhaps people with different skin tones might have more luck than I did.

I Love this Stuff

This stuff is really good to use it every day and you don't need to use another moisturiser if you are using this once a day (unless you have really dry skin). You can get dressed soon after using this but you do want to watch out with light colours, all tanning products are a worry in regards to white clothes. I like how it is more subtle than fake tan but you can use it with fake tan as well. Last for ages too.

Tips: If you are using a fake tan, this is good to top up in between applications of the fake tan and doesn't end up with that horrible blotchy build up (unless the fake tan you use is poor quality). Using this every two days in-between fake tanning is a good option.

Glowing

It smells Really nice. And it keeps your skin nicely moisturised as well as providing a light tint to the skin. I use the one for fair-medium skin. And I find its really great. Only down fall for some reason last year it irritated the backs of my knee area. Almost like a dermatitis like irritation, so I cut back to using it only once a week. Over all good product - best value for money in the way of tanning/tinting products available from most super markets xx

Tips: Best applied straight after showering to help provide better moisture and a more even application x

Dove Summer Glow review

I have naturally olive skin and I love love love this product, not only for the subtle tan it provides but as a good body moisturiser as well. It is non greasy and left my skin looking naturally tanned with no weird build up in areas like the ankles, knees and hands and no orangish tinge that many self tanning products provide. It is a great product to use on the legs when coming into spring/ summer when suffering from dull winter skin and wanting to pull out those summer frocks that have been hiding in the closet.

Tips: Apply after showering and before dressing. Wait a few minutes for the product to absorb before dressing to avoid unwanted marks on clothing.

Glowww!!

Over about a week using in the morning and evening, I saw the progress come along as a little bit off a summery glow/tan built. Although I used the fair skin one I found that it still looked a little bit more orangy on me than natural and sometimes It would be quite patchy! really moisturising though and overall quite good!

Great glow

I really liked the natural glow this leaves. After just one application you can see a difference. It doesn't smell that great but i've smelt worse in other tans. It gives an even tan, no streaks if you apply properly.

Tips: Be careful in the back of ankles make sure you spread it from there not let it gather or you will get dark bits :)

Awful scent

I brought this product when it first came out and then about 6 months ago for summers. I thought the scent of this product was awful when I first brought so I thought maybe a couple of years after making they would have done something different with the scent but nope it is still the same. However, I did like how it gave a gradual glow to your skin and it builded when you keep applying it each day. However, you have to work into the lotion ever good and small amount to the knees, ankles, elbows and wrists so the colour soaks in properly. This will not make the tan your have look weird and patchy. Overall, I would most likely not buy this product again and just get out in the sun with sunblock of course and the protective gear.and get my tan that way.
