Great Product.

Defiantly a fav of mine. Gives you a nice, even, natural looking tan. I use this 2-3 times a week. I always exfoliate before using it. Find it helps a lot.

Nice Product

I use this in Winter when I want to have a nice glow but not look overly tanned. I will maybe use it two to three times a week to build a lovely natural tan. It smells nice and fresh when you first apply but the next day you can smell the fake tan. This product can take a while to absorb into your skin so make sure it is fully dry before putting clothing back on. Overall, nice natural results at an affordable price.

Better than a spray tan

This product is quite handy, especially if you don't tan. Only thing I found is you can defiantly see where you used a little but more because it came out darker, almost streaky in places. On my legs which are lily white, I found make my legs look quite yellow.

Tips: Best put in after a shower

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 :)

Lovely initial smell

I actually really like this gradual tan moisturiser out of the bunch that i have tried. Lovely initial smell, but unfortunately you do get the developed tan smell after a while, But colour was great, even tho i used the dark it was still only really natural looking on my skin.

Tips: Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate! to avoid patching!

Great for in-between tan days

I use this in between tan days, it makes my tan last longer and moisturises my skin so incredibly well. I'm not a huge fan of the fragrance, but its not offensive, just that tan smell. Comes in a huge bottle which lasts me a few months. It takes a while to sink into the skin, so not great when putting on skinny jeans straight after applying, so I prefer to pop this on in the evening before bed.

Tips: Sounds silly but blast your skin with a hairdryer to get the moisturiser to dry quicker if you are in a hurry!

Natural Glow

I love this! Most people would say that brown/darker skins do not need a tan but why not give it an extra bit of glow, in my opinion :). Well I used the medium-dark dove summer glow to do just that. I do go quite dark during summer but liked the fact that this gave a natural glow to my skin. The scent is lovely, not overpowering. It's not sticky and applies evenly.

Tips: The golden rule about using tanning products, is that you need to exfoliate first. It smoothes your skin, therefore preps it before applying the tan. Only use during the day and allow to dry for a few minutes so that it does not rub onto your skin.

One of my fave gradual tans

I really like Dove summer glow, it is a great product for a GRADUAL tan. I think that it is important that people realize it is suppose to be gradual. There are a few things I dislike about this product though. 1st of all the smell...uugghh not very pleasant at all. It has that chemically tanned smell that actually lasts quite a while. 2nd thing I dislike is the texture, its really thick so takes ages to dry. 3rd thing I dont really like is the bottle/packaging. When stored upside-down its really wobbly. But on a good note I find the actual colour to be great. I apply it every other day and its great for keeping a spray-tan moisturised and looking fresh. The price is perfect for this product, its not the bee's knees but its pretty good.

Tips: EXFOLIATE! and dont use too much as you can go orange.

Might Have to Return to It

I used this religiously a few years ago, but then stopped tanning regularly when i moved to Dunedin...as there was no need to ever get the legs out with it being so cold and all! However, when I did used to use this product I LOVED it. I was reminded of this product when I saw it was available for review on BR and I had this urge to return to using it!. I felt it does just what it says it will. Dove is always known for its moisturizing and creamy products and I felt this was no different, it was really smooth. It provided a nice colour to my legs, not orange or muddy brown, just natural. I also really liked the smell, it wasn't too overpowering. Everything about this product is just right *Those bears and Goldilocks sure would be happy*

Tips: Oldie and an obvious one but the day before first application, exfoliate :)

Dove Summer Glow

I use this product every year. A friend of my cousins reccomended it too me at the beach one year and she looks great. It's the only product she has ever used. I gave it a go and love it. You apply it just like a moisturiser. Generally I apply the next day after I have exfoliated and shaved. I use light to medium as my skin is very fair. Gradually it builds a natural looking tan.

Tips: I find that this product smells a bit, so to avoid smelling like it the best option is use it on a day off or use another moisturiser over the top of it like cocoa or coconut something with a strong smell :-)
