Dove Summer Glow Review

As far as moisturising self tanners go, this is my favourite. Im not a huge fan of them as i do feel they still all have a slight yellowy/orange look to them. but of all the ones i've tried this one was the best for me im really fair so its really hard to find one that doesnt look orange straight away this was great on my skin. Plus it left my skin feeling nice as well, no building up on knees and ankles etc.

I havent used this for a while as I have recently found a product that better suits my needs. It says it creates a gradual tan, which it most certainly does, but you need to ensure to apply it evenly and rub in thoroughly to make sure the tan is even, if not done correctly there will be fear of blotchyness. In saying this I did use the product for approximately 5 years before I found something better.

i didnt really like this product very much i am quite fair so i didnt enjoy applying more and more lotion to get that natural glow look, but it helped keep my skin moisturised also didnt like the smell of it at first it was a nice smell but as the day went on the smell was too strong it gave me a headache also as the day went on i felt all sticky all over. the plus side is it is affoardable and it does give u that natural tanning glow without making a mistake if you have the time to build it up to the look/colour you are trying to achieve

I am quite pale so i use all sorts of fake tanning products to try and tan up abit! The first 2-3 applications of this was perfect I didn't go as orange as I usually do! But after those days I started to go orange and my legs became streaky...I didn't change the method of application or the amount at all. I was a bit disappointing as it had such a great result in the beginning! But when my mum used it she had fantastic results! So it just depends on your skin type.

Im half and half with this product, i do quite like it however i did end up a little on the orange side and i definately do not like the smell of it! I also end up a little streaky sometimes as it is quite wet. I apply before bed and wake up with a tan, It lasts a good few days and i just reapply or build it up over 2-3 days to get a darker colour then just re-apply every 4-5 days or so to keep it up. Affordable but a tad too orange for my liking.

This moisturiser smells really good and goes on really nicely, however, I didn't find that I quite got the results I hoped for! It definitely did give me a slight bit of a tan, but it took quite some time! I did find that sometimes the tan would go a bit streaky, but it made me try to be more consistent with the application! It is an alright product for the price, but not 100% sure if I would use it again!

I want to say I loved this lotion, and it was ok. Last summer I used it twice a day. I bought it because I ran out of my usual lotion with a self tanner and couldn't find it anywhere. I chose Dove because they are well known for being good for the skin so I decided they were the best choice. The lotion was nice, smelt fine, way smooth and creamy and didn't leave stains behind like the other brand did sometimes. However the subtle tan was so subtle I couldn't see it with the Dove lotion and the lotion was quite thick so I went through the bottle quicker than usual. All in all, I would get it if I couldn't find anything I liked better. It was lovely on the skin, but gave no subtle tan.

I'm the type of person that does my best in the time I have and that just has to do! I used to apply this the same as a normal moisturizer, trying my best to get even coverage on my legs then going about with my day, well day one is great! I see a slight tan that gradually builds up each day with prolonged usage. Unfortunately for me, my knees are dryer than the rest of my legs so require more lotion so end up several shades darker, an almost orange colour. I try again, and end up with streaks on the back of my calves. This product has the potential to be fantastic , but I dont see it as user-friendly for busy ladies on the go.

I do like this product, and it is one I have been using for many years now. I used to use it all the time when I was at high school, to give me a natural looking glow during the summer when we had to wear skirts. However, I did feel that this could often go quite yellowish on my legs and around my ankles and feet. I suppose I could have been using it too much or something, but it was quite ugly. I still use this product every once and a while. I also do not love the smell, but it is not too overly pungent.
