As a self tanner of about 20 years …I’ve used this for the last 3 weeks I would be unlikely to purchase again. The good - doesn’t dry out the skin, very clear and obvious guide colour, I used as a base layer tan in the end as the colour payoff isn’t as the guide colour suggests (on very pale skin at least) The bad - not as deep as I would like, the application is patchy, the developing time has to be a minimum of 8 hours. Only used on body as I was scare to try on my face because it was so thick. I used to use st tropes lotion Years ago but this was thicker. I don’t hate it but it would be my last choice .. Also the tone is caramel (the guide is orange) which makes a nice change from the very green based tans.
