Good tanner

Was an okay tanning lotion for gradual glow however found it hard if you missed patches any as you didn't know until later. Smell wasn't overly fantastic either but maybe that is just my nose.

Tips: Make sure you do a good coverage everywhere

Ready for Summer!

This gradual tanner was great. I’m very pale and this is exactly what I wanted, it works very quickly (2-3 days). It doesn’t go all streaky like fake tan. I really recommend!

Tips: Use it after you shower

Dove Summer Glow

Thus Summer is a bit of a washout so far. This was an impulse purchase from Chemist Warehouse, but it is available from lots of places. A very light brownish colour, this lotion promises to gradually build colour on wherever it is applied. A little goes a long way, and does take a little longer than I am used to, to absorb. Colour build up is nice.

Tips: Make sure you apply a good spf still

Negatives outweigh the good

Sick of looking at my white legs so I wanted something light and natural to give just a slight tan. Nothing too obvious or high maintenance. This did the trick in that regard. Pros- light tan, looks natural, no streaks, can apply with hands risk free, big bottle for cheap price. Cons - never truly dries, I stuck to the leather couch, I smell like developing tan all day. There are much better gradual tans out there. This one does the trick by looking great but the smell and greasyness is not ideal.

Tips: Don't bother getting this one. Try bondi gradual milk.

Great alternative to self tanner

For someone as an introduction to tanning (teenager for example) or if you wanting to just pick up a tanning option from the supermarket this product has your back. Easy to apply not need to wait and wash it off. It does build up a nice colour and even your grandma could apply it. Quick, simple and reliable

Tips: I would still apply with a mitten as it will stain your hands. It will take a couple of applications to be super noticeable

Dove summer flow gradual self tanner

I have recently started using this product again after not using it for over 10 years! I had completely forgotten about it until I asked someone what fake tan they used and they told me they were using the Dove gradual tanner. I didn’t believe that it would work so well but I was very wrong! This will be my new go to self tan. So easy to use, I just rub it on my skin like a normal moisturiser and then wash my hands after to avoid any unwanted colour on my hand area! It is so affordable and can be brought from most supermarkets which is so handy. Am really glad to have come across this product again.

Dove Summer Glow Review

This product is 50/50 for me. It was nice as a lotion, had quite a velvety smooth texture and moisturised a lot, and smelt quite nice, but when they say gradual tan, they really mean gradual. I used this consistently for about two months and saw almost no noticeable change in colour. If your looking for a tanning lotion, this is not for you, however great as a general use lotion still!

Tips: Still be careful to wash your hands every time you use it!

Dove Summer Glow - Game Changer!

I am a huge fan of this product - I use it predominantly on my legs and it always leaves me with a natural looking, glowing tan. I find it takes about a day to work after inital application, which is fine for me as I don't mind forward-planning. If I have an event to go to, then it means I have one less step in my beauty regime to do on the day, as I've already done it!

I also love how thus product is buildable, and you can use it as often/as little as you like depending of the shade of tan you are after. Highly reccommed!

Tips: -Make sure that you keep working the product into your skin until it's fully absorbed, paying attention to areas such as ankles, knees and elbows. This will ensure no streaks or patches show up and suprise you when the product dries. -Wash your hands thoroughly after every application, or your fingers will be giving off golden french fry vibes! - Always exfoliate/shave before use! -Dont be afraid to try out the lotion designed for darker skin, even if you are on the pale side. It gets you results quicker, while still looking natural if applied correctly.

Glowing tan

I love this, its not patchy, it's affordable and the tan is natural looking. I use it on my face, neck, chest, arms and legs.

Tips: You just need to put it on evenly then let it dry, I do it after my morning shower and then do my makeup and hair and then get changed so it doesn't get patchy. Oh, and wash your palms and between your fingers or you will have obvious tan stains

wow

I was a little skeptical about this product at first but wow this is such a great product. I couldn't believe how fast it worked and what a great coverage it gave. Easy to use and leaves your skin glowing

Tips: definitely need time to apply and let it dry before putting clothes on. Recommend in the morning after you have a shower if you have the time to
