I expected more - 03.20.10
I purchased this to prepare for a trip to the beach. The color it gives your skin is fine but I do think it has too much scent (just like every other self tan lotion) and it takes a good 3-4 applications before you can really tell a difference. I have some pink tones and very little yellow in my skin and I don't think the color it provides is right for me. I would try something less expensive before I spent $$$ on this.

Clarins self-tanning - 03.03.10
Quick Take: too pricy

I like the way this makes my skin look, but it doesn't do that great of a job of tanning my skin, especially for the price. Before buying this, I might try a cheaper brand first.

best sunless tanning cream - 02.17.10
Quick Take: excellent!

I have tried several tanning creams and this one is the best.It looks natural,not orange,yellow or brown. My skin is very fair even though I live in Puerto Rico. For this reason I use this tanning cream. I look sunkissed and sometimes sun tanned(depends on the amount and frequency I apply this product) without going to the beach, something almost everyone in Puerto Rico does.(at least once or twice a month for the whole year) The texture of the cream is perfect, because is a cream gel texture,which makes it neither too creamy or greasy.
I love it!!!!

Can't Get This Product Anymore - 02.04.10
Tried to order it from Sephora twice, Clarins and 10 other places. They keep shipping "Golden Glow" version which is not the same product. Too bad- seems like it has been discontinued.

2nd season....no 2nd year.... - 02.02.10
Quick Take: 6 stars....and more

Started to use in anticipation of spring/summer....and just continue for the year. Was so disappointed to find that it was out of stock in the late fall, but Sephora followed through and let me know when available....and I ordered immediately....again!

Good product - 02.01.10
This is pretty much goof proof. I think it is for very fair complexions as I have no issue with the product not working. It goes on easy and looks natural. I do put it on at night after I wash my face for the evening. I make sure my face is dry and then I put this on. After 15 minutes my moisturizer goes over it. I have never had any problems with this product being too orange or brown. I don't look fake tan - I look like I finally have a little color to my complexion.

Nice color - 01.10.10
Quick Take: worth the price, nice light color

I am super pale and this does a great job. The one complaint I have about this product is that it makes my face sweat horribly when I use it! Ick! However, the color and consistency of the lotion are great. Has some self-tanner smell, but less than most. Worth the money!

It really works - 12.22.09
I am extremely fair and it only gets worse with the sunless winters. I hated people calling me pasty. I was afraid this would leave me orange like the old stuff from back in the day. No. This is not streaky, not obvious and works wonderfully. It gives someone fair that little extra glow. No more pasty comments. It is easy to use and sometimes I will just put my moisturizer over it. This is good stuff!

I love this product. It smells good. It's lightweight. It dries quickly, but still leaves your skin feeling moisturized and healthy. I only gave it a 4 because there is no sunscreen in it (Clarins: bring back the spf tanner!!!). No need to worry about looking orange as I don't think it gives that much color that quickly. You can certainly control the shade you get. Each application is very subtle, so you can put more on if you desire a deeper shade. No need to worry about looking too orange. Nice product and makes your skin feel nice too!

Amazing Golden Natural Tan - 08.03.09
It doesn't break you out at all! I was so scared to use self tanning products because of my sensitive skin. This is a great product without the strong "self tan" scent and it leaves your skin golden and unblotchy. It goes on smooth and I noticed a change in my complexion after 3 days.

Works fairly well, but I didn't like the color on my fair skin; it looks a little muddy. The smell is not great.

Subtle color - 06.01.09
I like this product, but I'm not in love with it. The color is VERY subtle. I wanted something pretty subtle so it did not look like I was fake-baking, but this is almost a little too subtle. My skin is a little darker, but not much. My husband, who is pretty observant, would never even notice. It has a nice scent, and it absorbs well.

Great Moisturizer with Subtle Glow - 05.12.09
This is a great moisturizer...it provides a subtle glow when used daily. It's more gentle on my skin than the drugstore brands that do the same thing, so for me, it's worth the extra money.
