for legs as streaky as tesco value bacon

Advantages: absolutely none
Disadvantages: streaks, feels sticky, doesn't do what it should!

...offered for a can of Piz Buin max self-tan spray which was on special offer at my local Superdrug store. I’m sure many of you will have seen the ads which claim that the product dries in just ten minute, leaving no stains on your clothes. Well I’m a sucker for advertising and, combined with the 1/3 off discounted price – how could I resist? The 150ml bottle has a recommended retail price of £7.99. It did initially sound very dear to me but in comparison ...
...white bottle with the orange Piz Buin name emblazoned across the front. When purchased, the bottle is presented in a similar white and orange box. A quick word of warning here – don’t throw the box away!! For some silly reason, the directions for use aren’t actually provided on the bottle itself but are instead supplied in numerous languages on the inside of the box. ------------- Directions ------------- As with all self-tan products you’re advised ...

Smear Tan

Advantages: Erm.......none?
Disadvantages: Smeared, badly designed, crap and generally disastrous

...silvery white bottle with the Piz Buin logo emblazoned in orange across it. There are no instructions on the bottle, just the words "Self Tan Spray" in ten languages. But then you would know that having bought the stuff wouldn't you? Because it comes in a smooth, silvery white box with the same written across it. The box collapses open into a flat sheet with the instructions for use printed on the inside- very useful. Yes, of course I see myself ...
...best friend tells me the Piz Buin quick dry mousse had much the same effect on her as this did on me, and she's a lot more adept at these things than I am. However, I got it right first time with the lotion, which must count for something! VERDICT: If you want to look like a zoo animal, be my guest. Otherwise, unless you're the beauty queen of the UK, I'd steer well clear. Alex :) ...

Stay clear...

Advantages: It isn't permanent
Disadvantages: patchy, spray not fine enough, nasty colour

...you will need this with Piz Buin Self Tan Spray! I decided to buy this on a whim yesterday, it had a third off in the chemists and as the full price was £11.99 I thought it must be a good quiality product. So when I got home yesterday, I gave it a try and used it on my arms, legs and face. (Note, before I started I had had a shower, and used an exfoliator and moisturised). The first thing I noticed was that the spray wasn't very good, it didn't ...
...help kick-start your tan. If you haven't used one before, maybe try it on a part of your body than no-one will see! I think you will be impressed with the results and it will give you the confidence to try it all over. But please don't use Piz Buin! ...

Be the star attraction at a Freak Show

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Everything

...after spending over £50 on PIZ BUIN lotion for my face, the spray for my bod as this was the one that had a different tan for those pale folk and exfoliating, and moisturizing stuff. Done all the exfoliating and moisturizing repeatedly over a few days, put the lotion on my face, sat down watched the x factor got some colour by the end of the show, a few tiny patches needed touching up, had a nice glow. Roped hubby in to do the body since he was ...

If I can tan, you can!

Advantages: Easy to apply, good colour
Disadvantages: doesn't smell too hot

...version. I decide upon PIz Buin spray. The packaging is unfussy, off-white/silver box with orange writing containing an off-white/silver bottle with orange writing. And the price tag was pretty reasonable for what is a product by this well-known company. So I clear the bathroom of literally everything that could possibly be stained by my vain spray, strip off and get to work. I start on my legs. The spray is freezing and doesn't smell too great. ...
...my left leg and get to work, rubbing it in using circular motions. I find that it rubs in quickly and easiy. I take care over the ankles, rubbing just the excess spray from my leg into them and my feet. And so the process continues , moving on to the top of my left leg and then the right leg. Next I do my left arm, from the top downwards, remembering to be careful at the elbows and to make sure I cover all the arm. Then its across the chest and ...

Me, Myself and Tan

Advantages: Dries quickly. Yes, that's it.
Disadvantages: No colour at all.

Over the years I've tried almost every brand of self-tan on the shelves. I've tried wipes, mousses, sprays, oils and creams - but I can honestly say that this is the worst self-tan product I have ever tried. Please do not buy this! APPLICATION I applied this spray in a pasty leg panic - a few hours before a night out. The spray itself was easy enough to apply. I moisturised my knees and feet beforehand. The spray is very runny and easy to rub ...
...thighs and worked my way down - taking extra care at my feet. The spray dried really quickly, but the usual self-tan giveaway smell lingered around me for a few hours. I did feel a bit sticky afterwards, and my skin didn't feel very nice. ONE HOUR LATER The tan was supposed to begin to appear an hour after application. By the time two and a half hours had passed there was still nothing. "See, this is why I visit the sunbed on a regular basis," my ...

OH DEAR WHAT A DISASTER

Advantages: Nice Colour
Disadvantages: Streaky

Im a big fan of self tanning and i must admit i am getting the hang of it quite well. I always used the same product but fancied a change just because it was cheaper at the time! I think it was an offer! I bought it home reading the leaflet thinking this sounds good and it only takes 2 hours to start to show. It promised no streaks, quick drying (about 15mins)a pleasant smell, nice colour, even layers, perfect for face and body and lasts ages! I ...
...was a very nice colour. It didn't actually show until the next day though when i woke up in the morning. I had applied it at about 2pm on a Friday ready for 8pm that night. I was still damp when i went out so it didn't dry quickly either! With a bit of colour and i was also going out on Saturday to a party and wanted a bit of colour. I went out on Friday as tanless as i was before and i went out on Saturday the colour of an Oompah Lumpa!! Not nice ...

I have used many self tans and i always have a bath before hand get all that dead skin off I then put moistuirser on wait an hour so its all soaked in and dry then work very carefully maing sure not to miss any bits. This self tan spary is about £10 and its not very good the colour looks fake more orange then brown it stinks and it is greasy.

...sure i didnt let my other leg touch the other, after 30 minutes i was still quite damp and its not because i put to much on its because it is greasy, finally after an hour or so I got changed. 4 hours later i looked like someone froma tango advert it was streaky and it smelt horrid it was so pathy even though i had waited an hour to put my clothes on and it was still really greasy i thought at first maybe it was just me maybe i had done it all wrong ...

Bronzed Godess!!

Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: Price, Smell

...the self tanners from the Piz Buin range ago. After a long time in boots deciding over what one to go for i decided to give the darker tan spray a go. (I chose the darker option as i am a lot darker skinned than my friend). Before applying the tan i followed the usual routine of exfoliating and a light mosturise, paying particular attention to your knees, ankles, elbows etc. Once the mousituriser can completly soken in, i decided to start with the ...
...spray comes in a bottle which can be used at all angles which makes the back of your legs, back etc so much easier. Its a very light mist thats so easy to rub in. The application took no time whatsoever and dried just as quick. After the tan dried it was time to go to bed and when i woke up the next morning my tan was perfect. It was slightly darker that expected but after i showered and washed of the excess i was very pleased with the results. A ...

MY TANNING EXPERIENCE

Advantages: QUICK AND EASY TO USE
Disadvantages: THE SPRAY ISNT A FINE MIST,MORE OF A SQUIRT!

My friend is an avid fan of this product, so i decided to stray from my usually religious use of st tropez, and had a go. I only tried it on my torso, as i was going out that evening and wanted to look bronzed and glowing. My friend did my back for me in quite a careless way - just sprayed it on and rubbed it in well. I was quite suprised at how fast it dried - 5mins flat!! my usuall tanner takes around 2hours of walking round naked like john wayne!! ...
...skin, but only for a few mins. I had gently exfoliated prior to using this product. I also applied moisturiser to my elbows and hands after application. I made sure to rub it in well and applied two coats for good measure. I am very pale and have light red hair, so i was slightly worried that it would develop too dark. But in about 3hours, the colour was a believable natural glow, no streaks or orangeness!! I was so pleased with the results, i have ...

piz buin

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: streaky

I bought this self tan spray from boots. I thought i had got a real bargain. It was less than half price only 3.99. they were getting rid of old stock. I purchased several because i thought Puiz Buin were a good brand. I applied the spray which does smell quite strong over my arms and legs. after several hours the tan started to show. the next morninig the colour looked terrible.It was very patchy and uneven. the colour looked to dark and false. ...

No Streaks - My A*se

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Plenty

Not only did I waste 1/2 an hour in Boots "Pondering" I actually believed the hype....natural looking tan, no streaks, blah, blah, blah. I followed the instructions to the letter however this morning I smell like a fusty old sock (to be honest I have not found a self tanning product that does not have varying degrees of Eau de Fusty Sock) and I have hideous streaky legs, the hotest weekend is approaching and my legs will be kept well and truly undercover!!! ...

What was I thinking??

Advantages: Very reasonably priced for self tan
Disadvantages: Patchy and streaky

...disaster! Hours after using Piz Buin self tanning mousse I began to nitice a difference, not dramatically so but enough to notice. After eight hours I have numerous patches and several streaks, the colour is quite orangey and uneven. I'm not the most professional of fake tan appliers but this seemed to go on easy, too easy. The smell is also quite strong and all I can say is thank god I didn't use too much and end up being tangoed for the week! ...
