I did first enjoy this lotion when i first discovered it; i thought ooh; self tan lotion with shimmer, that should be good the Boots worker also advised me to buy a mitt too; but i decided not to as i thought it wouldn't be THAT bad. So after my shower that night i thought i'd give it a go thinking it won't be that bad because it's like instant. When I used the little pump at the top of the bottle it came out really dark which made me get rather curious if i had the wrong colour; but i applied it anyway and it came out quite light. So seeing as i wanted a darker i applied another coating to my legs waited for it to soak in the colour before i went to bed was great. Next morning i woke to up which was literally tangerine legs; The colour was terrible and very orange; And even though I had exfoliated before applying I had achieved somehow to get orange knee's and elbows. I wouldn't complain if it was a golden brown tan. But when you wake up with a bright orange body, that just takes the mick. If i could minus stars this product i definately would seeing as i really did not like this product.
