I tried this last year in the hopes of getting a nice summer glow, but there was only a very slight change in my skin colour. There was also more colour to areas like my knees and feet, even though i had exfoliated and moisturised. Maybe a better moisturiser was needed? It did leave my skin feeling lovely though, and it didn't have a strong smell like some of the other fake tans. Maybe i'll try again but use the darker colour and a better moisturiser!

I am someone who cannot bring myself to sunbathe or allow myself to burn (slip,slop,slap and wrap for me!) so self tanners would be great, if I could find one that isnt streaky.
This product is pretty good, it did give me a nice tan but even with proper skin prep I did notice it was a bit patchy in places as it got darker, not overly noticeable from a distance but you could see it close up which could be a tad embarassing.
I used it after a spray tan and it worked really well, it helped prolong my tan which was great so for me this product has been a bit hit and miss so its hard to say if I like it or not!!
I've been using this for years now, I'm not big on spending hours letting myself bake in the sun so I find this awesome to top up my natural glow I get during summer and amazing for giving my body a light glow during winter. The formulation makes it super easy to get it on perfectly without streaks or blotches, it's slightly greasy when applied but that does disappear very quickly and leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft.
I love this, as a gradual tanning moisturiser im usually happy with the shade after day 2 of application.
It smells nice, is easy to get and leave my skin soooo soft.
It has a slight greasy feel when first applied but all and all this goes pretty quick.
its a staple in my bathroom cupboard.
Tips: wash ya hands after.... in between you fingers espesh haha
My daughter bought me this a few years ago, & it worked really well, not orangey, it comes in two shades, for lighter skin or darker, I tried the darker one this Summer, can be used all year round.
Tips: Watch your ankles, knees & elbows when applying, don't apply too much to these areas or they will go too dark.
I have been using this product for years. I used to get a spray tan before going to Fiji but decided to try this by itself. I started a week before going and applied every night. I was so happy with the results that I got into my bikini no problem in Fiji feeling tanned already. I have since given the spray tan the flick and just apply this. Easier and I save $$$
Tips: I find best to use at night as instructed and after a shower it glides on better. If you do get a spray tan this is great to help maintain longer and avoid the motley fade that happens.
I used this but honestly didn't really see a difference.. possibly after a month or so there may have been but I gave up putting it on before then
This is the best gradual tan product I have tried. It doesn't go streaky, the smell isn't horrible and I like that you can build it up over a few days. I also find that it is really nourishing on the skin. I like to exfoliate in the shower then apply it after I have dried off as it seems to sink into the skin best that way. I use it all year round and love how affordable it is.
Tips: Always wash your hands after applying and wait a few minutes to get dressed if you can- especially with tight items like socks/leggings.
I love Dove Summer Glow! It's not a risky tan like some tans- it gives a really natural, gradual tan which lasts so long! It smells delicious and is an amazing moisturizer as well as tan. Using this product my legs are brown, natural looking, smooth and silky and smell amazing. No compliants. Buy buy buy! Not just for summer either, I use all through winter. You can get away with it because it's so natural-looking.
Tips: Exfoliate before applying to avoid any patches!
I really love this product! As someone who is a little afraid of fake tan, this is perfect for me. It is a gradual tan that I have complete control over. I tend to tan fairly easily (so long as I have time to get out in the sun) so I find this really great at the start of the summer season to boost my colour before I have had the chance to tan up.
Tips: I found the best way to use this was to apply every day until I got to my desired shade (maybe 3 or 4 days), then just used once or twice a week to keep it up. If I want it for that night I would apply in the morning and then again before going out to just take the glare off my white legs!
