Self Tanning > Garnier Self Tanning

Advantages: Good way of getting in those problem places, ie backs of legs!
Disadvantages: Very oily product.

There seems to be alot of good reviews about this product but unfortunately I really did not like it that much. I felt that it was greasy for a long time after application and it rubbed off on absolutely anything you touched. Also, if you are applying this product dont forget to wash the soles of your feet as well as if you are standing on carpet or tiles and you move your feet, you will wake up in the morning with feet a little too brown for my ...
...be a health and safety warning on the bottle because watch out if you are standing on anysurface other than carpet because this product will make it very slippy!?!?!?! It is easy to spread but i dont like the way you cant really see a light hint of colour!!! :) ... Read review

Advantages: Requires little or no rubbing in
Disadvantages: Does not dry INSTANTLY

This product does do what is says on the tin!!. I tried this product after trying a rake of other leading brands, and I was pleased..........no very pleased with the result. I found it was easy to apply - the spray application was in a fine mist which did not saturate the skin and did not require blending or rubbing into the skin (well maybe a little around the ankles and toes!!). It smells ok on application but if you apply at night you get a distinctive ...
...It is a little greasy but soon dries, note I said soon and not instantly so allow to dry before putting any clothing on.................you could get away with a lose nightie if applying before bedtime. **A GOOD TIP** Do not cross your legs until completely soaked in or you will end up with patches on the back of your legs. A good, realistic looking tan is the result I got from using this product and I still continue to use this on a regular basis. ... Read review

Advantages: erm...relive teenage spotty phase, pretend to be 16?
Disadvantages: Spots are so last season

I bought the Garnier Summerface moisturiser after trying out their Summerskin body lotion, both of which are in the group of moisturisers with self tanner, designed to add a slower, more subtle fake tan than regular self tanners. I figured I should really put something on my face that was designed for it, as opposed to slapping on the body tanner which is what I (gasp horror!) normally do. I remember when self tanners first came out, and the subsequent ...
...mentioned I had tried the Garnier Summer Body lotion, and indeed preferred it to the other main brands. It has a nice peachy smell and doesn’t smell nearly as much of old socks as some of them do! Also it didn’t streak on me at all. But we’re not reviewing that, I digress. So impressed was I with that product, and also having tried other Garnier products and liked them, I figured I’d give the Summerface a go. Like the body lotion, I was initially ... Read review

Advantages: satisfactory, quick, even tan
Disadvantages: strange smelling and quite blotchy and uneven if not applied properly

At £5.99 I thought it was a good value of money however I didn't find the product very effective. It made my skin very streaky and then came off instantly when wet, making me look very dodgey and i would say not very nice if you ask me. The smell is a bit whiffy and the colour is a little more bronze and shiny than wanted. But if a little bit shiny and brown is what your after well then its ok. I don't think it did itself much justice but i can't ...
...you applied it properly and smoothed it in with an even coat over your skin. It's easy to apply and to start you use a preparation scrub, you then use the self-tanning treatment. It devlops in around an hour i think but dries quickly. It contains vit. E which protects and hydrates skin. It is dermatologically tested and suitable for sensitive skin.You can easily buy this product from any large shops or superstore's like Tesco's or Boots and Superdrug ... Read review

Advantages: Natural tan, nice smell, easy to apply
Disadvantages: Could be too dark for some people

I found this moisturising bronzer really good value for money. I have quite a pale complexion and wanted something that would give my face some natural colour, without looking too orange or fake. This bronzer (in lotion form) was easy to apply, had a really pleasant apricot smell and left my skin feeling really soft and moisturised. The lotion was not at all sticky. The colour develops in about an hour and has a nice natural colour. As my complexion ...
...too strong, so on my first application I mixed the lotion with some of my usual facial moisturiser. If like me you are going to use this bronzer on your face and you have quite pale skin I suggest that you do the same, then build up until you have the desired tan colour. The 'tan' last about three or four days and does not wash off, (hence building up your tan on first application to get desired effect). It should be noted that this product does ... Read review
