    Advantages Advantages Works well, Smells ok

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Packaging looks cheap, takes a while to dry

    With Summer seeming to be well and truly here, I've become quite conscious of how deathly pale my skin is looking. Over winter I tend to go a bit grey (not in a John Major's 'Spitting Image' puppet way, just a bit dreary looking!) I don't tan very well - it takes months for me to develop a nice colour but with the amount of bronzed goddesses flaunting it in skimpy Summer clothes I feel very pale and uninteresting! The obvious answer would seem to be fake tan, but I've avoided it ever since I developed a minor obsession with applying it a few years ago that left me looking like the love child ... more

    Advantages Advantages subtle, even, healthy glow

    Disadvantages Disadvantages don't think the bottle will last very long

    The only fake tan I had ever used was Johnson's Holiday Skin lotion, and whilst I liked the results it gives, you have to apply it pretty much every day to get noticeable results and maintain your tan. As I am too lazy to apply tanning lotion every day, when this bottle ran out I decided to try something a little stronger that would have a little more staying power. I had no idea where to start, not wanting to pay loads, but not wanting to cheap out and end up looking like a tangerine! Eventually I decided on L'Oreal Sublime Bronze self-tanning gel, as I thought of L'Oreal as being quite a ... more

    Advantages Advantages Nice shimmer, easy to apply, no nasty smell

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Tricky over heels and feet, bottle doesn't seem to last very long

    I'd only ever used St Tropez before and was wary about using a cheaper brand. At £10.99 it isn't the cheapest you could possibly buy but I do think it's really good value for money, especially if you buy in Boots and get advantage card points. The tube didn't last as long as I expected, I've used it on my legs only twice, and all over once and I think it'll probably run out after another all over application. Maybe I'm just a bit addicted to it! My first time applying went very smoothly, I didnt find I needed to exfoliate and moisturise excessively before application for it to come out evenly ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy to apply, silky skin, natural gradual tan

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Needs 2+ applications, takes ages to dry!

    After using Johnson's Holiday Skin with a level of dedication bordering on Obsessive Compulsive, and then having somebody tell me 'God you're even paler than me!', I decided to stop chickening out and try a real fake tanner for the first time in my whole life! PRICE AND PACKAGING L'Oreal Sublime Bronze usually costs £10.99, but it was on offer in Boots with 1/3 off. I don't think that this is a bad price - not stupidly expensive like St Tropez, but it is enough to give me confidence in the product. The packaging is clear, so that you can see the dark orange gel inside, with an orange flip cap ... more

    Advantages Advantages Absorbs well, Difficult to get wrong!! use on face also.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages smell during development

    I really suggest than even amature fake tanners try this product out to add a bit of a glow to winter worn skin. I'm a typically perfectionist Virgo and as such rather tentative when it comes to tanning products. I can't stand the idea of having just one dodgy patch and i'm so particular that I can't just tan my legs I always HAVE to do my WHOLE body and face because I don't like the idea of having a mismatched look when i'm naked (even if it's only me that's going to see!!) CONSISTENCY The product is a slightly tinted honey coloured gel. The tint does not show up on your skin when you put it ... more
