After using St Tropez for all of my tanning history I decided to run the risk of trying something new.
After seeing it advertised on Ebay quite cheaply, and reading the description it sounded fantastic. It claims to give you a more darker and more browner tan.
The design of the bottle is a dark brown with gold design, looks quite cool, with a pump dispenser which is quite small and can be tricky to use when pumping into hands ans it dribbles down the lid.
Okay, so how did it fare? Well I did all my exfoliation and all that kit and kaboodle, popped on my gloves and pumped out the black, thick liquid into my hand. It said you only needed a small bit to cover one area but I found that as soon as it hit ym skin it was absorbing and to be honest you have to move fast to blend it in!
Another thing is that on first putting it onto my skin it smelled like alcohol, not exactly nice, unless your an alcky, but the smell went away and I can honestly say it didn't smell anywhere near as bad as St Tropez which is bloody potent!! (Great if I wanna keep the fella away from me)
After 3 hours I washed it off, that's how long I always leave my tanning lotion on for, and never had a problem, although it does suggest sleeping in it. Tried that before and it was so uncomfortable and smelly.
I revealed the most natural looking tan I've ever had from a botttle, the most gorgeous deep, dark brown tan, amazing. Nit a single hue of orange whatsoever. I was so impressed, I'm ditching the St Tropez and using this from now on. It wa sperfect, even, brown, and all that after just one application.
Overall, a great product. Persevere with the application, it's well worth it.
