Summer Glow

I have been using this product for years. I used to get a spray tan before going to Fiji but decided to try this by itself. I started a week before going and applied every night. I was so happy with the results that I got into my bikini no problem in Fiji feeling tanned already. I have since given the spray tan the flick and just apply this. Easier and I save $$$

Tips: I find best to use at night as instructed and after a shower it glides on better. If you do get a spray tan this is great to help maintain longer and avoid the motley fade that happens.

Dove Summer Glow Gradual Tan

This is my go to winter product to keep my skin with a natural looking tan over the winter months. True to it's name it is a GRADUAL tan meaning you won't get a summer tan after the first use. After a few days of use, it produces a nice, natural looking tan.

Tips: Apply evenly and really concentrate on rubbing it in. Wash your hands straight after otherwise you will end up with brown between your fingers. Try to keep standing for a while after use to help it sink in - for example I use mine straight after my shower and do my skin care and hair standing up while it's soaking in. Follow those steps and you won't get streaks or patchiness :)

Thank you for the review. I have been looking for a gradual glow. I am not a tanner and usual burn. I want to maintain my summer color now that we are going into fall. I have always been a little hesitant to try these self tanners. Can't wait

Amazing natural glow!

I love Dove Summer Glow! It's not a risky tan like some tans- it gives a really natural, gradual tan which lasts so long! It smells delicious and is an amazing moisturizer as well as tan. Using this product my legs are brown, natural looking, smooth and silky and smell amazing. No compliants. Buy buy buy! Not just for summer either, I use all through winter. You can get away with it because it's so natural-looking.

Tips: Exfoliate before applying to avoid any patches!

Here comes summer ...

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.

orange and patchy

looks like fake tan, not a natural summer glow as advertised. even if i apply with a glove, it comes out patchy which is unattractive. cheap and probably why it's not the best product around.

Not much of a tan

I tried this last year in the hopes of getting a nice summer glow, but there was only a very slight change in my skin colour. There was also more colour to areas like my knees and feet, even though i had exfoliated and moisturised. Maybe a better moisturiser was needed? It did leave my skin feeling lovely though, and it didn't have a strong smell like some of the other fake tans. Maybe i'll try again but use the darker colour and a better moisturiser!

Perfect for all year round.

This is amazing, perfect for anyone and everyone. I love this because i am quite fair skinned and do not want a dramatic tan. When i use this product it builds up daily, perfect to get away with using a fake tan. No one will ever know ;)

Summer glow

I got some of this from the warehouse for $2 because the lid was broken, BARGAIN! I used it over summer and still have tonnes! I think it leaves a very nice finish, but you have to remember to wash your hands directly after applying and make sure you have applied evenly (just like any tanning lotion). I like the smell of it for some reason haha, the packaging (aside from my broken lid) is convenient. And this definitely leaves the skin feeling nourished and looking good

Tips: Remember to wash hands after application

Summer Glow

This product does what it says and gives a gradual glow. It does take a few days to really start seeing results but once it starts working it is very natural looking.

Tips: Perfect for first time tanners

Gradual tan

I used this gradual tanning product for a number of years. I have very fair skin and this gave me a natural looking tan without being orange.

I applied at night and really focused on applying a light even layer and rubbing it in until it fully absorbed. For a "summer glow" it will probably take around 2-3 applications.

Tips: Wash your hand immediately after application.
