I purchased this originally because it was on offer at superdrug for £3.49, which is half price and had read about products like this in magazines, which help you keep that healthy suntanned glow. I started using this product after my first days sunbathing and found it made my skin sooo smooth unfortunately I had applied a little too much because the next day I was a little streaky around the bottom of my feet and now realise that you should treat it as a fake tan and should apply with care (and wash your hands afterwards!) But now I apply it correctly I found that it really works I know I’m not really this brown but people at work don’t and that is all due to this product.

The Product
-----------------
The product first and foremost is an after sun it contains glycerol and vitamin E to keep your skin smooth and prevent peeling but the hidden secret is the low level of self tanning ingredients that it contains and this helps to maintain your tan for longer by subtly deepening your current colour. The product is white and creamy, slightly runny and smells like aftersun not fake tan and it absorbs really easy.

How to use
-----------------
The product states that you should this daily during your first week of tanning and then once or twice a week thereafter. I use it every day but as my tan fades I shall probably cut down to 3 times a week.

The price
-------------
Well it should cost £6.99 for 150ml but superdrug have it on offer at half price £3.49.

This is an ace product and there are a lot on the market at the minute, which I haven’t tried, but I think this really is value for money! Cheers x

I can't use after sun, hurts too much. Topaz.

I used a Boots Soltan one last year and think it helped moisturise my skin but doubtful as to whether it prolonged my tan anymore than your average after sun, Sarah x
