Dove Summer Glow Review

I used this product once as I received it as a present. I have fair skin and this did not work well for me at all.

First off application alone was such a hassle the drying process takes time.. ALOT of time. And the outcome was not desirable, when it did start to build up a tan I went straight from pale to an orange/yellow.

Luckily I only tried it on my legs and was easily hidden.

You definitely get a lot of product for your money with this purchase, and you also get a lot of tan for your money if the tone it delivers is what you're after, but its an acquired taste in my case.

I'm relatively pale, and cool skin tone, and this 'glow' is very much an orange glow that is quite orange from first application and like the bottle states the colour 'gradually enhances' only continues to get more orange - into Oompa Loompa zone - for me.

It's lovely to apply, but the scent for me was too strong and I continued to smell the lotion through the day to the point I felt self conscious of people coming near me. It also remained tacky until I showered the residue off. As the tan developed I had streaks that rivalled a tigers stripes, and just looked awful. I didn't feel this lotion delivered any hydrating benefits to my skin at all.

Not the product for me unfortunately.

I have tried what i feel like is almost all of the gradual tanners out there and i have to say that this is my least fave of the bunch. If you are new to the product you would probably think it does a good job and it does its more then acceptable and a pretty good price. But there are just better products out there which give a more natural colour pay off, quicker and are better lasting. This would be a good entry level gradual tanner i think.. You pretty much cant complain for the price and anything is better than getting sun burnt right? =)

This was the first gradual tanner I ever tried. I found it looked alright, the colour was fine, but my sensitive skin didn't like the formula and played up so I moved on and found other brands that had a better formula for me and gave more colour. I prefer the Palmers Cocoa Butter Natural Bronze for the best gradual tan.

I used this but honestly didn't really see a difference.. possibly after a month or so there may have been but I gave up putting it on before then

It was an ok moisturise but didnt tan at all even when being used daily for weeks. It is supposed to be a gradual tan bt I guess im just to impatient for that

this product did nothing for my skin it did not add any extra colour im naturally a light tan and left a patch where i did not use product and could not see any chance

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.

I think this product is quite average and probably wouldn’t buy it again as there are much better tanning products available. I didn’t like the smell and it had a very orange tone. I also found that it was quite streaky the next day. It felt sticky and a bit yucky on my skin too.

I brought this lotion a couple of years ago, when I was at high school and also every now and then. When I first heard of this tanning lotion I was in love. Okay it did gradually tan but the lotion smelt weird. It didn't have a any yummy dove scent. The dove tan lotion gives you a great gradual glow or tan. This may be good for after you tan with a mousse or spray.
