Now I am Scottish so I am very lacking in the tanned department, in fact I have a blue shine about me!
I was in boots the other week and I have amassed £10 worth of boots points so I decided to splash out on some fake tan.
I bought soltan self-tanning mouse.

I am very nervous about applying this to regions visible on a daily basis i.e. my arms. S0 I decided I would just do my legs to start with.
So I showered shaved, exfoliated, moisturised, some hours later and I have still to even begin putting the stuff on!

So I sit down ready to go, take the top off and press, Oh my god I think a bit too much mouse for a leg as it wont all rub in so I have this white stuff on my legs. SO I have to rub some off one leg and onto the other.
Getting a bit greasy now.
It didn’t take to long to apply after all my preparation! Just be careful when squirting the mouse out as you don’t need all that much. And it can easily go every where!
So every hour I was eagerly checking awaiting some marvellously tanned legs to appear from under my tracky bottoms. It said on the tin results will be noticeably after a few hours. Very vague!
Anyway I got bored and went to bed.

Got up all excited and rushed to gaze at my new found tanned legs. Alas this was not really the case. They were less blue, in I have to say less white, but I wouldn’t say they were tanned :-(
I did go for the natural effect so I shouldn’t expect miracles.
I think I maybe need to apply a few layers to “build up a nice tan” but it wasn’t patchy or orange. And the results weren’t fake looking.
All in all
Good things :-)
1)it doesnt make you daygo orange
2)It didnt streak
3)it doesnt smell foul
4)Leaves skin felling smoother than a babys boy
5)Bottle does more than once
6)Fairly cheap
7)If you save adv points you can get it FREE
8) doesnt look to "FAKE"

Bad things :-(
1)not much of "tan"
2)Need to put it on a couple of times a few days in a row to darken it
3)Takes HOURS to show results, best doing the night before

Enjoy your tanned summer I am now saving for some St TRopez :-)

LOL - blue legs! I have never tried out fake tan products as I have seen 'tangoed' people walking around town, and seen the streaks that some of these products produce due to their difficulty in applying. Nah, better to take it easy - save up some dosh and go somewhere hot (remembering to take some SPF products with you!) P.S. Thanks for your comment on my Venus op. ~Deenie~

I like this product, but Iam sooooo white that it just gives me a hint of colour. I wouldn't like to look too false.
