Moisturising & It Works!
-05.06.13
Creamy consistency, moisturising & provides an even, natural looking tan.. Not shimmery & no added color that can stain my clothes. Comes out of the tube looking like regular lotion. The smell is slightly strong for me, hence the four stars, but it does fade away after a while. I find I have to reapply every 2-3 days. I have med tan asian skin with yellow undertones. I previously used Josie Maran's self-tanner (no longer available to my knowledge) & Clarins works just as nicely with the added moisturising benefit.

This product is EXCELLENT! It creates a great "glow" without any orange tint......even on the very fair. It applies easily and smoothly.

First time user - Will buy again!
-07.20.12
Quick Take: shimmery, great for light skin, smells nice
I have never used a self-tanner before. I have very pale skin and blonde hair. Not the kind of skin that burns or even tans easily. I always wear sunblock when I'm out and about, but it takes a lot of sun exposure for me to even get a wrist-watch tan. I thought it would be fun to try one. I didn't want to buy a cheapo grocery store brand that would make me look like an orange, so I spent a little bit more for a quality product. It smells nice. It doesn't stain. It absorbs quickly and did not find it to be greasy or sticky, and a little bit of product covered my body well. It left me with a beautiful light golden shimmer to my skin, as if I lightly dusted a bronzer all over. And for someone with my coloring, looking like an orange would be very bad. I would definately buy this product again.

good stuff

Not tinted so Colorado transfer is minimal. A little greasy for about an hour after application but it does sink in after a while.

best self tanner out there
-06.12.12
Quick Take: perfect
I have used many self tanners - drugstore brands and some from makeup counters in department stores. This is the best I've ever found. Goes on evenly and looks more natural than any others I've tried. So glad I discovered it!

As good as it gets
-12.08.11
Quick Take: perfect way to get a healthy glow
This self-tanner is one of my staples. I have fair, freckly skin that does not tan. This product is the only way my skin can sustain any color. It is easy to apply and develops to a nice tan, and is never orange or off color. The only downside is that it does take a while for the product to absorb into the skin.

Milk is the way to go
-11.23.11
like the milk better than the gel - i use this on both face and all over body. just make sure you wash your palms and don't use it on your toes...it works well with my olive skin to give it that sun kissed look.

too thick
-07.27.11
I like this product okay, but it is so thick it is gone after just a few applications. I use the Clarins for your face on my entire body bc it lasts a lot longer and goes on easier. You really have to work to spread this product on evenly.

This is a great tanner if you want a slight glow. It doesn't make you very dark. I am an nc20 in Mac so pretty light skin and it gave me a glow. Over all I like this product and love it on my legs.

Good color, Not so comfortable afterwards
-06.21.11
I'm not gonna lie, this tanner gave great color after just using it once. I went through the whole bottle in a matter of 2 weeks.
However every time i use it i had to make sure I was wearing loose clothing, that i wouldn't be moving around a whole lot, and prepare for discomfort.
I know it's a milk/lotion product, but after application it gives the worst oily, greasy, wet feeling that doesn't go away unless you shower, or rub the product off.

Quick Take: great
The product works great. I like that it has spf in it so that you can wear it in the sun. The color becomes visable within a couple hours and it is not drastic or streaky. Overall i think that this is a great product, one of the better tanners that i have used.

I'm a repeat purchaser of this product. Nice smell. Does not look orange and soaks in nicely. I have normal skin - tan easily in the sun. I've tried St. Tropez and prefer the smell and performance of this product hands down.

It is very nice self-tanning lotion for a starter!
-06.10.11
My first time self-tanning lotion and I like it. Nice scent, does not irritate my skin, mild. For Asian skin (light to medium), the color seems to appear pretty close to natural and it will show gradually, which is what I like. I don't use gloves to apply, though I wash my hands very well after applying it to my whole body.

Fair: Not great, not bad
-06.03.11
Quick Take: oily, greasy, thick, expensive
I used this about 4-5 times and am almost done the bottle.
You can see the color develop in about an hour, doesn't look orange on my asian skin and its a nice buildable formula.
However it says you can wear this tanner before going outside which I would highly not recommend. This tanner is so oily, it feels like you just put on lotion even hours after application. I only use it before going to bed because i hate the feeling, Otherwise it's a great tanner with good color, no streaking, and gives great build up.
