I have used Jergens and Vaseline in attempts to get a darker skin tone but they never worked. So as a last resort I thought I would buy Dove because I am usually quite fond of their products. I...

I really love this product! I am a first time self tanner user. when I get out of the shower I just apply this just like a lotion and it gives me a nice golden glow to my skin. No streaks or...

I tried this product starting in May, when it started getting hotter here. I'm getting tons of compliments on how "tan" I am. The only thing is that sometimes I look pretty streaky - but I don't...

I am fair skinned and have no problems with this being too dark for my skin tone. It has a mild tropical scent ( mango/pineapple?) that fades so you are not stuck smelling fruity all day. It is...

I have been using this for about a week and I totally love it. So far, I only used it on my lower body (legs and thighs) because I wanted to test on an area people wouldn't really see, and it...

I was really hoping this one would work for me. There are a few positives, I am PPP, and the color was fine, not orange or yellow. It also dries very quickly, and didn't stain any clothing. What I...

I've tried most if not all of the "subtle self tanners" and they all worked pretty well on my olive skin but the one thing I hated about all of them was the SMELL. You'd think that being a "subtle"...

I found this formula to be a little less creamy and consistent than the jergens natural glow lotion. It has a more jelly-like consistency and a little slight apricot tint to it. It smells okay, a...

I really like this self tanner. I have fair skin and don't need many applications of it to show up. It's a light body lotion and that makes it easy to apply, it doesn't smell bad at all and fades...

i probably should have got the Fair one but I don't really consider myself FAIR but more inbetween light and medium. I had just went tanning the day before so I went with Medium. Have used it for 2...

This is great stuff! The Medium shade packs more punch than the Jergen's Medium does, so I like that. I do have to be a bit more careful with blending and washing my hands because of this, but I...

I bought this because my sister was using it. I love the texture--it's like a creamy-gel that absorbs quickly and smells pleasant. Medium however, is more concentrated than most of the new...

Streaky, streaky, streaky, and with a yellow cast. I'm going back to Jergens.

I wanted to like this, but it was WAY too greasy for me AND the color wasn't great. I agree that the fragrance begins nicely but after several hours that old nasty self tanner smell shows up!...

It turned me yellow, but to be fair, my skin isn't medium-toned...I'm actually more in the fairly-light family so I can't blame Dove 100% but the Hawaiian Tropic Island Glow in medium worked just...

I can't believe I'm reviewing this, as I didn't expect to use it too much. But it works! It works better than my Neostrata, Clarins and Avene. Let's see: Positive: 1. Easy to use. You just put...

This product is one of the better gradual self tanners I have used. First and most important in my opinion is that it doesnt smell like most self tanners do. Its easy to apply because its not so...

I've tried many different self tanners and found this to be the best (so far). I like how it gradually builds up, doesn't streak and looks natural. But, I noticed that it disappears in no time....
