Smells great

I love the way this smells!! That is probably my favourite thing about it. The issue I have with this is that it takes a really long time to dry completely and the next time I shower I feel like it is still on my skin and washes off rather than it having absorbed when applied but I don't actually know if that's what it is meant to do as the pack it says allow to absorb fully before dressing so I don't expect it to come off again..

Tips: Definitely wash your hands with soap after use and wait for it to dry before dressing.

It’s ok

This does what it says and gradually tans pretty well however the formula feels a bit outdated to me there’s much better products with a more natural tan as a result it’s a good product for the price but I personally this it’s worth spending a little more to get a more natural looking tan also I don’t really like the smell

Does what it says it will do

I have used the dove tanning lotion many times and still using it. It does what it says and it dries really fast within 30 seconds. I only use it when I’m wearing dresses for work and it gives me a nice tan. I love my legs and with this tan on my leg’s really look good.

Tips: Always wash hands when finished as it does stain

Dove Summer Glow

A good gradual tanner and moisturiser. It doesn't hugely tan for me but it does accentuate my tan and gives a glow.

Summer glow?

Not sure whether I really love this product or not. I find that I don't really see to much of a difference when I use this alone. Now I tend to use this along with a spray tanning product (at the moment sugarbaby) so as to not over do the spray products.

I do like that this product is not crazy orange tan after one use. I like that it works well in conjunction with another tanning product if you are looking for a quicker tan. I like that it is easy to use and does not come out streaky. I just don't like that it takes a while to build up the tan (...I can be impatient!)

Tips: Works well to maintain a fake tan already in place!

affordable - oompaa lumpa tendancies

so affordable and popular its great as it has different skin types and shades so you ca gradually build a natural looking tan. from personal experience i found it made me blotchy and orange at times...but i have the whitest legs known to man!its a great moisturiser and less is definitly more

Tips: apply with a mitt or glove as you may find your hands go orange....less moisturiser is more for tanning purposes :)

Great tan but will give you dry patches

I read the reviews on here and thought it wouldn't hurt to try a gradual tan as opposed to an all-out fake tan.

The first few days were really good, gradually made my skin a little less lily-white and a little more caramel brown however after those few days I had what appeared to be dry scabby patches on my legs.

So I've stopped using it and they've now disappeared. Coincidence, not sure. But I'll be exfoliating like there's no tomorrow before I put this on again just to see what the difference is.

So it's not bad, but for me it's not great. I think I'd rather stick with my Sugar Baby fake tan mousse in the long-term.

Tan!

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.

Dove

I used to use this product all the time and it gave me quite a nice natural looking tan! However since then I have moved to other products that give me the same result without having that yucky fake tan smell that this one has. I also found it easy to get streaks with this one but have never experienced streaks with the other products I have used. Not sure if my applying skills have just gotten better though

Hey right now I use gradual tan daily glow by le tan. It works better than the dove one and it smells nicer too! The only place I have been able to find it though is Farmers and they sell it for $25. Comes in a long orange tube (:

not too bad

I found this gradual tanner the only one that didnt make go orange. I dont really like the smell, but i found it quite nice that it was a moisturiser more than a Tanner. I do like the fact that it actually helps maintain the tan of my other Tanner i use. And one bottle has lasted me nearly 8 months so totally worth the $$

Tips: dont forget to do between your toes!!!
