this product gives nice color I just really did not like the smell, like most other sunless tanners. i ended up returning because i found sprays to be better for me than lotions.

Years using this.....

I've tried many selftanners and I always comeback to my favorite one, I have an olive complexion , yelow undertones, and for tears I used the darkest shade, well, this time I made a mistake and bought the light one and I'm loving it, it gives me a super nice tan, Clinique is the best.

Good color and applies easily

Quick Take: gradual
I have fair/medium skin and this product looks very natural and goes on very easily. It definately does not smell as bad as other self tanners but it does have faint self tanner scent to it.

Good, but not Great
-09.12.12
Quick Take: gradual
I used this awhile ago to try and get a little color for a wedding. I liked that it was easy to use and gave pretty good color without being too shimmery. However, the smell was a downside for me. It smelled like of like burned coffee, although most sunless tanners have a scent like that in my opinion. It also didn't last very long, either, only about a day or two before I'd have to reapply. Don't think I'd ever repurchase again, though.

Good sun substitute
-06.27.12
Quick Take: gradual
I have very fair skin, and this gives me just a little color so I don't look so ghostly pale. It took a few tries to get it just right, ensuring to exfoliate first then combining it with moisturizer to avoid streaks. It's a bit of work, but not unlike any other selfless tanner. And this one doesn't smell as strongly as most others. I'd definitely buy it again.

works for me
-04.02.12
It works for me, doesn't make me look too orange, just have a nice hint of tan. the smell is the one downside, but if you use any type of sunless tanner, you get used to that.

This is the most natural looking, easy to apply bronzer I have ever used. It does have a slight scent though similar to other bronzing products.

I have darker skin and find it hard to get good color with a brozer. I liked the med/deep. I gave noticable color without being too much. I liked the 'glow' and the shimmer effect. Would def. buy again.

Ew this is horrible. Have this whole line intact.The smell is terrible, the color stains, the texture is thick, hate it. NOT worthy at all. The spray is the most decent but the smell is disgusting.

Quick Take: easy to use, provides an overnight tan
I love this product for many reasons. It provides an overnight tan without being too messy, I also really like that I do not need to wear rubber gloves to apply it! It also provides some color when applying so that you know where it is going, and I have never had a problem with streaking. This is a product I have been purchasing for years and will continue to do so.

Use this all the time!
-11.07.11
I use this self-tanner all year round. I've tried many, but find this one easy to use - without streaking or a bad scent. The only thing I would change is making it longer lasting. But none I've tried is perfect!

I like it, the smell is light, the color is good, even has some light shimmer. It's great for body.
I also use it for face, it's oil-free, just perfect for combination and oily types of skin, but because of shimmer use it at night for good looking morning!

I'm tried a LOT and this one is the best. It's worth buying the med-dark one because it really gives you a good color. I use it on my face and it's great!

Natural color
-10.06.11
I have tried many self tanners and so far this one is my favorite. I do recommended exfoliating well and paying attention to where its applied to avoid streaks. I love the light glitter on your skin after you apply it and that it provides natural looking color. It has a lighter smell than most self tanners i have used.

Quick Take: clinique face tanner
This stuff is greasy and nasty. Leaves yur face an odd color, and feels awful on. Too many other good products out there to spend your money on this.
