Dove Summer Glow Review

This is a lovely moisturiser with the added bonus of giving a nice natural looking tan. Gradual build up of a natural tan if using daily, no streaks or orange glow, and at an affordable price. Comes in 2 sizes, and the smaller one is ideal for taking on holiday so you can keep up the daily application. I use immediately after bathing, and generally dont wait for it to dry completely before dressing. It never affects the tan, or my clothing. A good product for a natural sun kissed look.

It's that time of year - we're getting the *very* odd warmer day, where jeans are every now and then being shunned for shorts (and a long top, because it's still winter and I'm not crazy!)- oh and I have to get my pins out for a conference in a weeks time (I'm not showing off my legs, just wearing cocktail dresses for two nights). Out comes the trusty Dove Summer Glow!

I love the way that this is perfect for an un-co like me. I've tried using proper tan products but it ends up streaky and patchy and freaky looking! With Dove Summer Glow I can shave, exfoliate and moisturise and after a few applications I've got the colour I want - which is a subtle light brown, with no streaks!

The smell isn't my favourite, but it's still a lot better than a previous product I'd used, my only real moan is that I hate having to wait for it to sink in before I get dressed - but for perfectly tanned pins, I guess them's the breaks kids ;)

If you're a novice to tanning this is worth a shot.

Such a nice and easy product on the skin and yup definitely no streaks. After I do a spray tan as well I use this product as a top coat.

I have used this product for a few years, love it and will continue to use it. All year round suitable, works well and is a nice colour (I use the darker one) - takes off the "glow" of whiteness that a lot of us have lol

I bought this at the supermarket thinking it was just a normal moisturizer as I was in a rush. When I read it was a light tanner, I was a bit hesitant to put it on my skin as I am VERY pale and thought it may make my legs look out of place. It takes a while for the tanner to start working and be noticeable, but I was pleasantly surprised when I started to see a nice 'summer glow' as they call it, which is great during the Winter months where I get no sun at all. I don't know how to describe the smell of the lotion, but it sticks for ages, not that I'm complaining, it's lovely :) It leaves my skin amazingly soft and smooth for hours afterwards, I generally only apply after showers though. The consistency was what you would expect from a normal moisturizing lotion, and has a slight skin toned colour from the tanning part. A little goes a long way as well, I can see this product lasting me a lot longer than any other moisturizer I've used in the past.

If you don't want to do a full on tanning application then this is a great everyday product, not strong smelling, easy to apply and doesn't stain hands. Use post shower and exfoliations and it's pretty even streak free. It's not going to give you full on tanning coverage but a little colour and smooth summoner sun kissed look.

I've used many a fake tan and have got to say I find this to be the least annoying! It goes on evenly and develops into a natural sun kissed look and gradually builds. Although, as with most fake tans it is good to have a bit of natural colour to enhance.

Used the light colour on my Scottish, white skin...Gives a nice natural colour when used every day.. Drawback is that still has a funny smell tho!!

I really enjoy using this product - it smells nice, is easy to apply, soaks in and leaves your skin feeling moisturised as well as tanned. Doesn't leave stains on your hands and doesnt leave streaks - a really nice natural colour and even result. The only thing I find a drawback is it does tend to leave darker results on dry or thick areas of skin - such as knees, toe knuckles, and heels/ankles. Make sure you use a good exfoliator and deep moisturiser before hand to prep these areas.

Sometimes when using this product its great and I look really nice and other I turn really orange! I use the same method and amount everytime so don't understand why this happens. Aside from that its a good product and smells AMAZING
