Review (4/5): Olive-toned, Easy to Apply
I have very fair skin. I have blue eyes and blond hair (no this isn't a personal ad), and I freckle when in the sun. I can tan gradually in the sun, but it takes days/weeks to achieve any noticeable color. I am more prone to burn than tan so I have become a big "self-tanner" over the past 2 years. This product is good for many reasons! It is easy to apply, color shows in about 4-6 hours, it lasts anywhere from 2-5 days, and it doesn't smell bad. I apply this at night after I shower with a self-tanning mit to avoid the olive-brown staining on my hands. I let this dry before dressing (about 5-10 minutes) and then I go to sleep. In the morning I shower again (not required, no color-guide to rinse off) and I get ready. I have also applied this in the morning after my shower and allowed the color to develop before heading out for the day. I like that I don't have to put this on, wait a few hours, and then shower it off. This is more like a lotion and as long as you wait for it to dry, it will not transfer to your clothes or bedding which I love! The color is olive-toned and although I am very fair, I buy this in the "dark" color and it looks great! I do not apply this to my face because I have sensitive skin.
