I bought this in two different colours, eventually getting darker as it didn’t really make me that much darker. I also didn’t like the strong fake tan smell that you (and everyone else around you) can smell the entire time you have it on.
Admittedly I don’t moisturiser my entire body everyday so potentially it could work for you if you do. I would much rather use an instant fake tan than this.
Dove summer glow is easy to apply as you are only putting on a little amount of tanning ingredient at a time. Experiment with this moisturiser so you can see how it works on you. I am a fan of Sugar Baby and this product is the same awesome colour!
Tips: Start applying daily 3-4 days before you need to look brown. Give the product time to develop. Wait 1-2 days before putting on another layer as the colour develops differently on different skins. Apply about the same amount of product to the same area of skin so you know what coverage you are getting. Start with the medium colour and once this has developed swap to the darker colour. Apply every day till you are as dark as you want to be. Rub off any harsh lines gently with a pumice stone. You won’t remove application mistakes but any streaking will be less noticeable with exfoliation.
The shade I’m using is the medium to dark and at first I was a bit worried just looking at the packaging but after using it for awhile now I’m not entirely happy with the shade. I’d say I have quite a medium semi olive skin tone, not dark but not light either. I definitely would recommend the medium to dark colour for paler skin tones to just because it is a gradual tan which means it isn’t dark straight away so I feel like it would be perfect for 2 or 3 shades lighter than me. Applying it once you get a pretty natural colour. I’ve definitely noticed that applying everyday will create a darker colour which is good because you can choose the colour you want. The scent is nice and the product also doesn’t streak that much either. You just have to make sure you’re applying it thoroughly.
I think we can all agree we secretly love this stuff. It has a very summery signature scent, and ya girl can smell it from a mile away. One of my fave things is pulling this tanner out after the winter and breathing in the smell of the summer to come :-) it has omen of those crappy clip lids that always break off, but the actual product is legit. Cheap and effective. It’s not like Bondi or sugar baby but this product is for the kid who is subtle and all about developing the tan over time. It is also a fantastic moisturiser.
Tips: I’m your classic white girl-not tan (Wah) and not albino. I’ve been using the fair to medium product and it doesn’t do stupid amounts of tanning which I like.
Mum put me onto this would you believe, and now I always have a spare bottle in the cabinet over summer! This is a gradual tanner that works best if you apply it after a shower. It takes about two-three days to be noticed, but the great thing Apis that it is forgiving! There are no streaks and it looks golden and natural. It rubs on as a creamy lotion.
Tips: Once you achieve your desired tan, don't apply every day just too up every third day.
Let me start by saying I am very pale like a ghost. I do not sit out in the sun as I burn, go red as a lobster then peel. I had never used a gradual tanner before but after blinding my workmates after wearing shorts to work I decided to give this a go.
It comes in a 400ml plastic bottle which looks like a standard dove moisturiser. I got the one for fair to medium skin. It is easy to squeeze out and is quite thick in consistency. I don't mind the smell it is quite fresh and doesn't smell like fake tan to me. I just simply apply like I would my moisturiser. Making sure to rub it in well especially around my knees and ankles.
It feels a bit sticky afterwards and it does take a bit of time to dry. It's not an issue for me as I only use it at night so I apply it then sit back and relax. But keep that in mind if you intend to use it before you head out. It only takes me 3 uses to get a lovely looking glow on that looks nice and natural.
I really like the results and it does not go streaky at all. I will definitely continue to use it over summer. A great priced gradual tanner and a good sized bottle. Totally recommend for us pale ladies.
The packaging makes this product easy to use and apply. I like the smell of the product. I have used the dark version of this product and it left me with a natural glow. I have very white skin, but this works for me. It takes about six hours for it to reach maximal affect. When it comes of it can streak, so it is important to rub the product in well.
Tips: I usually put this product on after a shower, as it comes off in the shower slightly. I put quite a bit on and leave to soak in and dry.
I really like this and use it on a pretty regular basis on my white legs!
It can leave you feeling a bit oily but it's fine once it fully dries down. I find it takes about 8-12 hours to see a real difference. It doesn't make me look orange and provides a nice, sun-kissed glow. It's buildable and doesn't look unnatural.
It's affordable and I find the big bottles last me a long time!
Tips: Wash hands after applying!
I use this gradual tanner daily. I use the light shade. It soaks in nicely. You don't need to use much product. It is a good price. The tan does not turn orange on my very fair skin, although you need to be careful around knees and ankles. Great all year round for a subtle tanned look
I can't go without this moisturizer, I use it everyday as a face cream as it keeps my face from not being super pale because I wear foundation almost everyday. Also my skin breaks out from pretty much every other moisturizer that I've tried so it's my only choice lol. I use the medium to dark shade and it works great for my naturally light skin tone by giving me a nice light golden glow within a couple of hours and fully soaks in by then leaving me with nice smooth skin.It's also great to use to pro long or enhance your natural tan or fake tan. I would recommend to anyone as it it affordable and easy to find at your local supermarket
