Fake Tan

I too have used the fair shade Dove fake tan (the one in the gold tube). It doesn’t smell unpleasant, and moisturises well. It does need 2-3 days of application to get much colour, but I didn’t want to go for the dark shade!

The only downside to it, is it does leave the skin feeling a bit sticky for a few hours, and looking at the reviews, others have said the same. I was worried it would transfer onto clothes etc, but it doesn’t.

I used it twice and didn't notice much change - so will keep going!

It didn't seem to be sticky, perhaps I didn't use enough - or perhaps it is better not to use too much in one go and build it up gradually.

I used to use Dove, but have discovered L’Oriel Sublime Bronze Summer Glow Lotion Medium tan , it’s brilliant.
I am a fair skinned blonde and it looks right on me.
No need to moisturise first, just use it.
I use a little on face and neck, and legs and feet.Strangely my arms never need it and tan with just being around the garden or out for walks. If your face or legs are particularly dry then do moisturise first.
