    I was using this product for somewhat of a long time...maybe 4 or 5 months. I started getting some comments about how I was orange and that I should stop using it. I guess I had been so used to...

    I didn't buy this, my mom bought it for herself, then decided she didn't want to be tan, and gave it to me. Other reviewers were correct, it did leave streaks after the first application. I was...

    I visited my parents for two weeks recently and used my mother's 'Build a Tan for body' about half-a-dozen times. I have mixed feelings about this product. At first I really hated it. This is the...

    I bought this on my vacation in Florida to give a punch to my naturally fair skin. I really disliked the smell - to me, it smells like being on an old airplane or the smell of a car seat....ECHH -...

    I used this product on my very, very pale skin and was happy with it for about the first three applications. After that, I began to look orange and streak. It doesn't smell horrible, and it's easy...

    I tried the "Neutrogena Build a Tan" last summer and liked it; this year, I'm so broke even the drugstore-priced neutrogena costs too much! However, I saw a CVS "clone" of the "neutrogena build a...

    I couldn't live with this stuff, its unbelievably natural looking, and you have to TRY to get streaks. My only compliant is how its hard to get out of the bottle when it is almost gone!

    I'm pretty pale skinned so was hoping this would be the answer...but after two weeks of using I'm giving up. I see no results, no glow...no tan . Back to the expensive self tanners for me.

    While this sunless tanner does not emit the putrid smell of most, both times I used it, it left streaks on my legs, as well as a slightly orangish tint. Would not buy again and I have already...
