Advantages: Even, affordable, easily obtainable
Disadvantages: Washes off!
This fake tan is a real must have in the cupboard for girls who are prone to needing a quick fix tan before a night out! It's not expensive compared to many other fake tans such as St. Tropez, Fake Bake etc, priced at only around £6.99. It's easily obtainable from Boots, Superdrug and also many places online. It's easy to apply as long as you use a mitt! Without a mitt it doesn't go too well, but any fake tanner would know that a mitt is essential anyway. I use the dark, to get super super tanned. I'm naturally quite pale and it always looks good and rarely goes patchy which is brilliant. And a plus is, even if it does go patchy, you can wash it right off completely in the bath immediately! However, this is also a negative in a way, because your worst nightmare arrives when your on a night out, feeling beautifully tanned.. and it begins to rain.. You look like a backwards dalmatian! Rimmel would definitely profit from releasing a more resistant tan, one that lasted a bath would be great as it doesn't go patchy much. Not recommended for the dedicated tanners, purely a quick fix solution!
Summary: Recommended quick fix ++++
