Most used brand for me

I have used this stuff for years it’s pretty cheap and you can find it pretty much anywhere,you don’t need to use a mitt to apply it,I’ve always just used my hands but always wash my hands after applying it to each leg and always make sure it’s rubbed in properly on your knees and ankle areas,I’m fair skinned so always get the light/medium I find that after I’ve exfoliated and applied it it more often than not makes my legs itchy for a little while after I’ve put it on but that stops after 30 mins,you can re apply for a darker tan or if you find it’s faded after a couple days just re apply and it evens it all out again,the only thing I don’t like about it is it comes off to quickly even if I haven’t scrubbed my legs in the shower it just disappears

Tips: Make sure it’s completely rubbed in on your knees and ankles

Easy 2 in one

Remembering to moisturize all over and tan is easier and so much more convenient with this product. It's also better for me to build up my tan rather than go straight to just tanning products where I can easily overdo and get streaks. I do prefer pump top bottles as they're easier to use.

Great gradual build-up of colour

During the summer months I like my white (English-rose) legs to have a hint of colour when peeking out from my capri pants. I replace my usual body lotion with this product and add to it each day to get an impressive light tan over 5-7 days. At this point I find you need to exfoliate and start again, The colour is lovely on my skin and matches my naturally tanned arms.

Tips: Whilst building up your colour over several days, be sure to only pat dry your legs (rather than rub) so that you don't end up with streaks when you next apply the lotion.

Dove summer glow review

I prefer using this product as it blends in nicely and does not leave streaks on your skin. You need to use it a few times to build up to colour you want.

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

Easy use and good colour

This is my go to for gradual tan - I love the colour it leaves and that it develops well overnight. Part of my weekly routine!

Tips: Put it on at night after a shower and sleep in it. Wash your hands after

Yessss

One of these bottles will last me a long time, I like it looks nice,feels nice but like I said it lasts me a long time as I only need to use a little bit each time as I prefer it not to look to orange.

Tips: Just use a little bit, but make sure not to miss a spot.eg if your only going to use it on your legs make sure you do get the whole leg as if U keep missing the back part of your knee everyday it will show

Summer glow me dove!

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 :)

Tips: do a practice run first when you will be home the next couple of days and just experiment, its great to put on a day or so before a big outing so it has time to settle a bit :)
