    Pros: VERY quick to dry, great natural color, smell is tolerable. Cons: Has no staying power whatsoever--I have to reapply almost everyday (and I am very pale)! The price--very expensive BUT a...

    A good self tanner. I am very fair and i find that one application every three days is enough to give me a fabulous natural colour with no streaking/orange effects Update:switched to savage bronze...

    It goes on smooth and dries fast. The color is great and looks like the real thing. My co-workers were amazed when I told them it came out of a bottle. I can live with the smell, it's not that...

    The color is so beautiful & natural. I really looked like I went out in the sun for days. No orange, fades even, no break outs, no problems. I use it on my face. It is the color of fudge so you can...

    Terrific self tanner! I've always used another favorite, Au Courant, but the BE seems to be more appropriate for my whiter than white skin. The cream forumla is easier for me to manage, the smell...

    Finally, my HG of self tanners! Smells ok, goes on and worked great. I used BeneFIT and my skin broke out. Bobbi Brown is nice too, but fades in a day. BE's faux tan rocks big time. You won't be...

    I reviewed this before and raved about it, but I've decided that Faux Tan isn't that great afterall. While the color is nice if you have really fair skin, it took me three coats to achieve a light...

    Love this ST - but only for my face. The color is great (never to orangey) and the smell is so much better than most. Also, the bronzer allows you to really see where you're applying the product....

    This self tanner is beyond great. It leaves you with a nice glow no orangey streaks at all. Looks like I was on vacation after one application! The chocolate color is perfect you can see where it...

    This ST is really good. It is hands down the best smelling one I've ever used. The color is great (no orange!!). This is now replacing my standby Clinique Dark

    This is the only self tanner I can use without the nasty orange look. The color guide is great - looks like chocolate pudding. The smell is very nice - cherry almonds. The dry-down time is great...

    Well, I must admit, I was a bit skeptical about this product. I thought I'd try it during the summer, because I am very fair complected. I love it, say goodbye to orangy tanners forever when you...

    I am really surprised that no one has reviewed this yet! I saw it on QVC but they had sold out, so I was able to get it from Seeka on eBay. This stuff is GREAT! It's kind of a combination of...
