Gianfranco Ferre GF Ferre Her Body Lotion

Advantages: replacement for normal moisturiser, easy to use, gradually develops colour
Disadvantages: more pricey than my normal moisturiser

....99 per 250ml bottle, the body lotion is much better value, but as it is still more expensive my normal moisturiser, i will be trying to conserve it by using it every other day or so. But this is fine, as i have been told that colour is still maintained even if i dont use it for a couple of days inbetween applications. oh, btw, DO remember to wash your hands after applying the lotion or they might turn a bit orangey and it is probably best to leave 5 minutes before dressing to make sure the lotion has sunk into the skin properly. And if you are fair-skinned, then the 'darker' lotion is apparantly definately not for you according to a Boots assistant as she tried it and after just one application the change in colour was very obvious on her light skin and looked slightly ridiculous. So it's better to stick to the 'fair skin' lotion... Read review

Advantages: Moisturises yor skin well and doesn't smell of fake tan!
Disadvantages: Takes a while to notice a strong difference.

...As a woman who likes to take care of her appearance, I like to have a light all year tan to take the edge off my pale skin, and so lately I have been using one of those body lotions with a hint of self tan. There seem to be loads on the market at the moment, including the well known ones such as Johnsons Holiday Skin, and the Dove and Nivea versions. All of them are quite expensive, at around £5 a bottle, so when I saw a lesser known brand in Savers for a mere £1.99, I thought I’d give it a try! That brand is called Nuage, and the product is Sunshine Glow Body Lotion. This is my review of that product. THE COMPANY: The Nuage brand is owned by the company FMCG Ltd. Their website can be found at http://www.fmcgltd.com/ . They manufacture other cheaper end of he market personal care brands such as Salon Chic, Dentiplus, Baby... Read review

Advantages: Lightly build and tan and moisturisers
Disadvantages: Can look a little too fake ! !

...on the television a couple of weeks ago, and was drawn to it because it is primarily a daily moisturiser, but it also builds a gradual tan, which appeared to be a double bonus to me, especially as I think I am starting to look a little pastey following the dark winter months !! Come on, I am from Irish stock, and our fair skin needs darkening up. Mind you, we do have a family history suggesting origins in sunnier climbs as well, but the pale Irish skin is quite evident in my Mother, and I take most features from her ... not the genes though. God, this isn't going well!!!!! Anyway, £4.99 for 2 bottles was the offer at Boots, so I thought I would have a bit of that. The moisturiser comes in a handy little light orange bottle about 7-8 inches in height, with Dove printed on the fron tin blue, underneath which is printed "Summer Glow - Body Lotion... Read review
