Does what it promises

This product is excellent value for money. After just one application in the evening, skin is a light brown by the morning. And it is a great moisturiser. Takes about 10mins to dry. It does have a slight smell. No colour comes off on sheets.

As with any tanning product, the most I would use it for is about 3-4 days in a row and then leave it to gradually wear off before starting to re-apply a week or so later - otherwise you will get a build up of the tanning colour, which will eventually not look that great. A fake tan is never going to be as even or last like a real one and there will always be little imperfections around elbows, knees, ankles, etc.

I also use this on my face and it works very well. It is pretty forgiving...I have never had any dark patches or signs of a fake tan on my face after applying it.

I recommend it to friends.

Tips: After using it for 3-4 days, wait for at least a week to re-apply or you might get build up of fake tan in dry or bony areas.

Easy to use & a good price

Im not big on fake tanning because it never goes on nicely - but Dove was the exception. I gave this one ago after seeing my flatmate at the time have awesome results. Because it is a slow building colour you can't really go wrong here. It is easy to apply and while it is not the best smelling lotion it is far more pleasant then some. It has a very light peach colour to the cream which was nice.

Tips: I suggest cleaning the opening of the bottle after each use as it starts to get a build up with goes nasty and brown/orange.

You ladies made me do it!

AND I LOVE IT!!!

what a lovely fragranced lotion. It rubs in so well and creates such a subtle tan that looks so natural on my skin!! It dries quickly enough too. It does leave your skin feeling a little sticky after you use it but nothing overly worrying. I think I’m in love!

Tips: couple it with a Palmolive coco butter exfoliating body was to make sure your legs are smooth before each application. and do it in the evening. the tan shows well in the morning

Summer Glow

I love this product! It gave me a really even tan over a few days and has a lovely smell. Its quick and easy to put on and doesn't require lot of effort. I did find that if I put it on everyday it did make the tan look fake, however if I applied it every few days it looked real. It does exactly what it says it does and I will definitely continue using it in the future.

Tips: Use after a shower/bath and then wash your hands!

Even pale girls can get a summer glow

As a pale girl I was a bit worried about trying this product in that it would a) not work or b) work too well (e.g. hello orange). But this product has truly blown my expectations! The best thing about Dove Summer Glow is that not only does it also contain a very rich moisturiser, but it also allows you to decide how build able you want the look to be - if you're very pale like me, you probably don't want to go too tan or you will look out of proportion with the rest of your body. However this allows you to stop when you wish to - as it works gradually. A true summer necessary!

Tips: Wash your hands thoroughly after applying.

Dove Summer Glow

Gives a really nice gradual tan without being patchy. Also doesn't smell terrible! Good that you can use a little and can stop when you get the colour you want.

Definite Summer Glow!

This product gives the glow it says for sure! For me the medium to dark only really works in winter, however in summer I find it works to even out any tan lines!

Beautiful golden tan

Mum put me onto this would you believe, and now I always have a spare bottle in the cabinet over summer! This is a gradual tanner that works best if you apply it after a shower. It takes about two-three days to be noticed, but the great thing Apis that it is forgiving! There are no streaks and it looks golden and natural. It rubs on as a creamy lotion.

Tips: Once you achieve your desired tan, don't apply every day just too up every third day.

Dove summer glow...no one will know

This is great for those times in winter when you can't cope with those white legs and you are going to the thermal pools in Rotorua or somewhere and you need to look a little sun kissed. It is very subtle and natural it doesn't streak. Your boyfriend will never know, noone will know because it looks so natural. I get the light to medium one in winter and the dark one at the beginning of summer till my legs look brown again. I have pale to medium skin. There's no orange or streakiness in this its better then expensive ones I've tried.

Tips: Rub it in really reslle well and you'll have no streaks. Use the lighter one in winter
