Dove Summer Glow Review

This is a lovely moisturiser and works well as a Moisuriser it’s also great at gradually building up your tan.although you do have to be careful around the knees, ankles etc as they tend to darken quicker. The only thing I didn’t like was the smell of the Dove in fact I had someone comment and ask if I was using it as they could smell it, put me off a little

i bought this at the supermarket. the words summer glow had me curious, and i usually like dove. its a good brand.

the smell is quite nice, i really only use this on my legs though so its not too noticeable. the lotion is off white but when it dries on the lid its brown.

it is a very gradual tanner, but you have to use it every day to get any coloring out of it. it rubs in easily. it took too long to make me look tanned but i felt like my legs were more moisturized.

Being quite fair I definitely need a bit of a top up to mask that ghostly appearance.

Ive been using a bottle of this and it seems to keep going and going. A little seems to go a long way moisturising but in terms of building colour it's quite slow.

It's a pleasant smell that doesn't smell like fake tan. Also it doesn't seem sticky it dries quite nicely so your free to dress or sleep without worrying it will rub off onto your clothes or pants. A nice creamy solution that adds moisture to keep the legs smooth and unscaly.

The tint thought is just a tint for me. I guess that's a good thing in a way as it means I don't have to worry about tan lines. But I find I have to keep on top of using this to keep up the tint it adds to my legs.. if I miss a day all my previous efforts gone.

Despite the constant use it's not bad for the price a tint and moisturiser in one is pretty good. If you want a tan though - keep shopping.

I purchased this at the end of winter to use on my legs as I seem to tan on the top easily bit not my legs. I liked the price at $7 for 400 ml and the fact it is a moisturiser as well. I have used numerous tanning creams in the past which grab your skin and turn orange so prefer to use a slower tanner that is easier to control the colour. This is easy to apply and scent is ok but as with all tanners does have a slight scent which I don't like -not noticible immediately but slightly there all the same . I have yet to apply a false tan that does not have this particular scent and if you use false tans you will know what I mean. With Dove it is not strong however so easy to overcome. I only use false tan on my legs so easy to apply daily and I found after about 3 days I could see a very light tan starting . I like the slow approach as it is less noticable and looks like the sun is just doing it's job plus there is no sudden strong colour with possible orange overtones. I have found using this tanner my skin is not dry and a quick rub in each day keeps my legs looking just slightly tan which is a really natural look. Easy to use and a nice moisturiser as well

Love this product ! I apply it after my shower at night . One coat to my whole body . Wake up in the morning and I’m brown . Don’t seem to get this result from any other cream tanning products . Great for moisture aswell . Need to apply with caution ........ can still get lines around ankle and knee area if not careful and must wash hands after application . Really like this product for an everyday topup of my tan during the summer and winter - not dark enough if I was going out to a formal event .

This was the first tanning product I used, years ago. My nana used to use it lol Its really cheap but you get what you pay for. Its very orange and stinks! There are so much better tanning products out there, don't waste your money.

Many years ago in my early teen years, I used this religiously before discovering the more instant fake tan products.

I found this to be fairly easy to use, although a little hard to apply. It is also sticky for quite a few hours after putting it on. There is no colour when you rub the cream on, so it's hard to see if you've missed a spot. Sometimes I'd wake up the morning after applying it and find that I'd missed somewhere, or some parts were a bit streaky. If you get the application right then it does look really natural.

The smell is very obviously a 'fake tan' smell.

I was in a hurry and wanted something quick and easy. I smoothed this over my legs like you normally would with moisturiser and it goes on nicely but once this product dries, it's got quite a smell to it. I don't think it would be a good product to put on just before going to work at the office but it isn't much of a stinker if you're outside doing stuff. I am fortunate to have medium to dark brown skin so the tanning part does work nicely for me but the smell does get to me.
