Advantages: Good cream, Light and easy to apply!

Disadvantages: Took ages to dry and didn't smell too great!

I don't normally go for tanning products as I'm quite happy to remain pale but I saw this when it first came out and was quite interested by the fact that it was a moisturiser first and foremost and had just a hint of tanning lotion so would according to the adverts build a nice natural looking gradual tan.
Great I thought and when I saw it on offer, Buy 1 get 1 free that was even better so I snapped some up and decided to try it out that night.

Now I only got the body one so I thought right I'll shower, exfoliate and then I'll be able to do my arms and legs at once, how convenient!

So after I've showered and dried I proceeded with the application, It didn't smell too pleasant to be honest but it wasn't totally off putting so I carried on, the cream is white and soft which makes it easy to aplly but not so good for not doing the same area twice!

Anyway a few minutes later and id done both legs and arms, and washed my hands and I stood there and thought what now, my legs and arms felt wet and clammy, I couldn't sit down for fear of covering everything in the cream and having brown stains on the furnishings (not a good look!) It felt like it took forever to fully dry and no amount of arm waving or walking around like 'John Wayne' would help! It did eventually dry fully after about 15-20 mins but I got so bored in this time that I knew I wouldn't use it again.

If this wasn't bad enough you should have seen me the next day, I was one big streak! I had lines down my arms where I had put them to side of my body! And despite exfoliating, very orange ankles and knees!

Maybe I was doing it all wrong but I personally wont be using this item again!

Summary: I won't be using this again, it's just not for me!
