Johnson's Holiday Skin Daily Facial Moisturiser

This has been the first self-tanning moisturiser I have used. I bought it after seeing it in a magazine, where it came out top in a consumer test for self-tan moisturisers. In general I trust the "Johnson's" brand as it is well established and I have never had any problems with it before. My skintype I have normal skin, and can usually get away with washing it twice a day with a mild face soap. If my skin is ever going to go one way or the other - between dry or greasy - it will go greasy. I have never suffered from acne, but suffer from blocked pores and blackheads. I don't suffer from ... more

Despite having an olive skin tone on my body my face is several shades paler so in the hope of matching up a bit more I decided to try this product which is essentially a moisturiser incorporating tanning ingredients which is said to over time build up a light, natural looking tan. I bought the normal to dry skin variety from Boots at a cost of £5.99 but there is also a normal/combination skin option. The first thing I noticed was the smell which was quite overpowering and unpleasant. However, I decided to persevere despite the odour which soon faded once the product was on the skin ... more

Johnson's Holiday Skin Daily Facial Moisturiser What it does: A conventional cheaper moisturiser (ie not one of those which promises to remove/prevent wrinkles etc) which also slowly builds up over a few days to a tanned face, after which you can adjust usage accordingly so as not to get too orange. It is supposed to be subtle. Mine is for normal/combination skin - this implies there may be other versions but this is all I've found. How much? I paid £5.99 in Boots for 50ml tube. Couldn't find it in other high street chemists. Manufacturer: Johnson & Johnson, the baby lotion people. Made in ... more

Being a red head myself , I have the tendency to look a tad pasty, especially during Spring time when my skin is looking a bit sorry for itself as its not quite recovered from Winter. I don't normally self tan but these new moisturisers that have a 'hint' of self tan sounded easy & don't involve standing around for hours in your undies trying not to touch anything! Johnson's were first to market with their range, so I very trustingly indulged in a face & body lotion/ moisturiser. The face moisturiser from Boots and is available in 2 varieties - Normal/ Dry or Normal/ Combination & costs £5.99 ... more

I purchased these products as a twin pack on special offer at £5. I had seen and heard all about it on tv. I bought it as i am not easily tanned and do not like to go onto sunbeds. I have always used johnsons products so assumed that it would be generally good. I was wrong, I read all of the directions about what to do before applying this product e.g exfoliate and so on, So i did twice over to make sure there was no dry skin. I applyed this product as evenly as i could as obviously you cant see how it is going to turn out, It soaks in quite quickly so you think that you need to apply more ... more
