Perfect Tan Without the Hassle!
Absolutely love this tanning mousse! St Moriz has always been my budget-friendly go to, and the medium shade gives such a gorgeous, natural-looking glow to my super pale skin. No weird orange tones or streaks!It applies really easily with a decent mitt, dries super fast, and develops into a beautiful, even tan. Does have that slight biscuit smell but nearly all tans do lol. The mousse isn't clear so the guide colour makes it easy to see where you've applied it (or where you've missed!).A total bargain for the quality - I've tried pricier brands, but I always come back to this one as I find they apply pretty much the same. If you want an effortless tan for cheap, this is the one to try!

Perfect!
The St. Moriz Original Gradual Tanning Lotion is fantastic! The application is super easy, and the lotion has a smooth texture that absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. What I love most is how natural the tan looks – it's a beautiful, even sun-kissed glow that develops gradually, so there's no risk of streaks or an overly dark result.The scent is also really pleasant, which is a big plus. After just a couple of uses, I noticed a gorgeous, subtle tan that made my skin look radiant and healthy. The 200ml bottle is the perfect size, lasting me quite a while even with regular use.I couldn’t be happier with the results, I didn’t even need to use a tanning mitt – the lotion blended so easily with just my hands, and it washed off them easily afterward. It’s easy to apply, smells great, and gives a natural, healthy glow. I highly recommend it!

Better than Fake Bake Flawless!
This product is better than Fake Bake Flawless and costs a fraction of the price. I've been using Fake Bake products for years, and Fake Bake Flawless for several months. I've tried just about every fake tan on the market, and Fake Bake seemed to suit my pale skin best and give me a dark looking tan without looking orange. I was tired of paying £13 a bottle (at cheapest) so I started looking for alternatives and I saw the reviews for this so I thought what the heck I'll give it a go for that price. I wasn't disappointed! This stuff glides onto your skin perfectly and it's much less messy than fake bake because it's a mousse not a spray. I recommend applying with a mitt before bed for best results. If you do it just glides perfectly onto your skin. Also, when using a mitt, half of it doesn't get soaked into the mitt like with liquids (Fake Bake Flawless) so a little goes a long way. On top of that, the bottle is larger, so both the extra quantity and the fact that it's a mousse means that I get twice as many applications, for about 5th of the cost! This stuff is fantastic! I also think it has a slightly better colour, lasts longer and fades more evenly than Fake Bake Flawless. My only negative point would be that it's not paraben free whereas Fake Bake Flawless is. There are lots of parabens in this product. That's why it only gets 4/5 for me, otherwise it would have been a defininte 5 out of 5. I guess if they were to make it paraben free the price would go up.

St Tropez self-tanning excellence without the price tag.
I must say I was sceptical when I bought this. At a fraction of St Tropez one of the best brands on market for self-tanning products. I didn't expect it to be as good, but went with the positive reviews, I figured since it's cheap I'd give it a go. I know some peoples ideas of what constitutes a *natural* looking fake tan differ greatly and I'm quite fussy.My first attempt wasn't great and I was almost dismissed the product as rubbish. Even using the recommend mitt I wasn't able to get an even distribution and it came out a bit too dark, streaky, clumpy, and basically unnatural looking on my face. HOWEVER, a second time provided really impressive results and by the third attempt, I'd mastered it fully and had a convincing looking fan, like I'd just stepped off a plane from a hot country! The tone is perfect, not orange or weird, just natural sun-tan skin colour, with absolutely NO noticeable scent.It does takes a bit of trial and error, so expect 2-3 goes and be patient. You have to learn the knack of applying it.Here's how I do it.. first of all, LESS IS MORE. Just use a little tiny blob on the mitt and start somewhere on your supper arm or somewhere covered up, so you can see how dark it will come out and how thinly you can spread it. The more thinly you spread it, the more natural it looks, but the lighter the tan is. However if you want it darker, its better to re-apply layers, rather than try to use loads on the first application. It doesn't seem to matter if you have a tanned area (drying) and a white area, you can re-apply, overlap and it blends perfectly! That's really neat.So, here's my technique from trial and error.. I use little blobs on the mitt, rubbed gently into my face and neck after exfoliating, patting face dry. Then I use a simple Nivea for Men moisturiser and wait about 40 minutes and this helps even out your skin tone, get rid of any dry patches etc. I focus on the large areas first, the cheeks, forehead and then blended it down to the hairline, over the nose, around eyes and mouth last (around the nose and mouth MUST be done sparingly, this is where fake tan looks more obvious if you overdo it). For the neck area, I've discovered it's best to work from the bottom up, and again, use sparingly over the jaw line (especially if you're a guy with slight stubble).Don't forget to do all around your neck, around and over your ears, and behind the ears (do it sparingly again). If you neglect these areas its a tell-tale giveaway you have face tan if you glaring obvious white places next to tanned. The idea is to get an even, consistent look all around. The mitt is great for wide areas of skin but what I do is use latex gloves and have a bit on the palm and use a finger to just spread it over the delicate areas like hair line, ears, nose, eyelids etc.The colour comes pretty instant so gives you a fair idea of coverage. As time goes by, say within about 1-2 hours the tan deeps a little and looks more natural as your skin oils/sweat etc help. I find slashing water on face too after waiting about 4-5 hours is a good way to get a more natural tanned look and removes any excess. Just pat dry with a dark towel, moisturise again, and you'll look stunning and good to go.My brother just came back from Spain after I use St Moriz for the third time.. We were standing side by side and it was hard to tell the difference in tans, mine looked as natural as his people said and couldn't believe it came from a bottle.I would not hesitate to continue using this as my no1 tan product of choice now and recommend it to others. I think the bottle will last ages. Just remember, less is more, go slowly and see how much you need to apply to get the tan depth you like.Finally, it lasts a decent while, maybe 3-4 days before you need to top-up the tan. If you do get it on your hands, it's fairly easy to get off with soap if you wash them immediately. If you leave it longer than 5 mins, it dries and stains. And whatever you do, DO NOT wear light clothes or your best shirts, until it's properly dried which can take hours. Either wear a dark dressing gown, old t-shirt or a black shirt if going out.Happy tanning! Look turn heads with your healthy glowing tan and get admiring glances from people :-)

Best tanning cream
This product is easy to use glides on just using gloves. Nicely scented. I put on the night before I go out, it develops overnight. I shower in morning and the colour is very natural. You can apply more if want a deeper tan, but this is usually enough for what I want. No streaks either. Good value for money

Its okay.
Usually buy a different brand of drops but wanted to try this one. It does give you a tan/colour but trial and error. First getting it I used about 5/6 drops for leg but made no difference, each time of use I would use more. About 10/12 drops began given me a slight colour to the legs. The smell and consistency of the drops is fine just not as effective as the other brand. Wouldnt buy again as didnt work great for me.

Fantastic experience overall. Will recommend to friends and family.
Exfoliate & shave at least 24 hours before. Pump onto an applicator mitt & blend well in a circular motion. When applying, bend knees & elbows to avoid streaks. Your glowing tan will begin to develop for up to 8 hours. After this time, simply wash away the guide colour!
