Dove Summer Glow Review

I tried this one, in the vain hope that I would be able to escape my year round pasty-whiteness. But alas! It (slowly) turned my legs orangey, as well as the palms of my hands. But not even fake-tan orange.... I still looked pasty-white, but with a orange tinge. It was strange, and certainly not a good look. My legs were silky smooth and moisturized though, so that was nice.

I find this a perfect match for my skin. Gives my skin a just kissed by the sun glow, not a over-done/over baked look.

If I want to intensify the look, I just repeat the next day. But I am usually happy with one application.

This is my favourite gradual tanner, I like the smell and it does feel moisterising as well. It gives a nice colour, not too orange. I like that it is easily available from supermarkets etc and it is not an expensive product. And also that it is such an easy tanner to use, real fake tan kind of scares me so I like that this will just give me a subtle result and I can build it up if I want to.

I am not a fan of tanning beds and spray on tans are too messy, so doves gradual tan is brilliant! it coloured up nice and nice natural (had to watch my knees though as they tended to soak up colour and go orange) and if i wanted a darker or lighter tan i just adjusted the amount of coats i put on. it didnt stain my hands if i washed off straight away and it doesnt smell as weird as other gradual tanning lotions. i love that it moisturised at the same time! It doesnt last long but i dont mind that as i think we need to learn to be comfortable in our natural skin too, but was nice to put on a day or so before a special outing :)

i really like this product , i don't have time to go to tanning beds or get a spray tan so this is perfect, i just apply it after my shower .its also not streaky which is a plus:)

I use this lotion at the beginning of "short season" to stop snowblinding people with my white legs! Its really does only take a couple of days to make a difference and unlike fake tans it is really easy to apply and smells nice!

I've tried many self tanners and gradual tanners. It's really one of those ones you have to try for yourself to see if the tone suits you. It didn't suit me due to the end colour, the smell and the length of time it took for the colour to build up. It really is a gradual tanner. But as it's not too expensive why not try it and see if it's for you.

I have reasonably white legs and i found if i wasn't careful i could turn quite orange. However it goes on quite well and smells good! I still use it every now and then and it is fairly good!

This is great at maintaining your tan or taking any glare from winter legs! It's moisturising, non irritating and smells ok. I really like it!

The old classic 'fake tan' season is upon us once again. This product definitely smells better than its predecessors, but there's definitely still work to be done. It goes on your skin smoothly and dries quite quickly, which is helpful if you're in a hurry. The colour doesn't come up immediately, which can cause trouble for you because if you put too much on you'll turn a shade of orange! I use this on those 'in between days' so I fake tan on the weekend and use this during the week to keep my colour looking dark. For the price, it's not a bad product, but there are definitely better out there.
