    I bought this product when I went to live in Massachusetts this past March 2008, and wanted to add a little color to my skin for the up coming summer. This stuff if you aren't careful will make you...

    This stuff is ok if you don't mind applying it every day for a few days. I do mind because when I apply sunless tanners I do my entire body, and it takes me about 20 minutes to do the whole thing...

    This had that awful self-tanner chemical smell that bugged me whenever I used it. Although I'd exfoliated quite thoroughly, the application wasn't quite even and I had some patchy bits all over my...

    I have to say this looked like it would be a really good product, but it did disappoint. :/ I have very pale, olive [yellow tinted] skin, and using this just made my skin flat out light orange....

    I really like this product, it might be that my skin is kinda dark skinned already to begin with i just wanted a glow, so it worked wonderfully, the smell is strong but I am not to picky if it...

    This product claims to gradually "build" a tan, but I'm already pretty dark from one application. The formula is a bit watery for me, and it took a lot of rubbing and spreading to make it appear...

    Love the pump bottle. This is pretty gradual, so if you're looking for something that'll make you instantly tan, this isn't it. I would recommend this for self tanner newbies. Has a lotion-like...

    I like this product. I found when i used it with another moisturizing lotion the smell lessens which is good and you're less likely to get orange streaks. But be careful because they are still...

    I used this one my legs. Smell? Not good. Results were slightly orange and streaky. Scared me from using a self tanner for awhile.

    I had bought the face version of this product, so I thought, hey I might as well try the one for the body. Since the one for the face, was awesome. But, as I thought, it made me orange. It wasn't...

    My favorite self tanner. All others streak too easily, are too thick, or come in tiny expensive botlles. The new formula smells GREAT for a self-tanner. Its very sheer, so its harder to make...

    One of the better self tanners. REALLY HATE THE SMELL, but they all smell. I too found random orange spots, so you do have to be careful when applying. I think it works well, much better than...

    I hate the smell of this product. when it dried it was orange fake and very streaky. Im very fair and tried applying as normal and mixed in in my everyday body lotion. One of the worst I've used.

    This was horrible. By the time I built up color is was starting to flake off in certain places that got dark right away like my arms. This stuff is horrible. Smells bad, looks orange, too much...

    The stuff smells awful and takes a few days to "build" the desired tan but I love the way it looks when I've reached the level I want. The best stuff I've found if you can handle the stench.

    Awful stuff! The color is orange and even with extremely great application (exfoliating AND used w/lotion) came out orange and a bit streaky. Smell is terrible. I will never buy this again!

    Horrible ! Even after lots of exfoliation and very, very careful application.. I woke up orange and streaky; not exactly the most flattering look ever. I wouldn't recommend or rebuy.
