Garnier Summer Body Gradual Tan Moisturiser, For A Radiant, Sun Kissed Glow, Suitable For Face and Body, 24 Hour Hydration and A Natural Even Tan, Fast Absorption, Vegan Formula, Deep, 250 ml

Having used the old version of this many years ago I was keen to try the new updated formula.I got it at a great price.It smells ok ish. Not too fake tan like. I know it's a moisturiser but some with added fake tan can smell awful.It goes on well and absorbs easily. I put it on after a shower at night. It's a little sticky for a short while and it will stain your bedding and clothes. However once washed the stains come out easily.It does develop a nice light tan. Which I guess if you used it lots it would get very dark.It will stain your hands and nails if you forget to wash it off. Plus make sure you really rub it in well or you will get light streaks.All in all I will continue to use this through the winter

I'm impressed with this buy. The cream absorbs easily and quite fast into your skin, and doesn't leave you feeling greasy. It also has a gorgeous apricot fresh smell that I love. Only downside is to make sure you're aware it can mark your clothes when wet, and make sure you wash your hands after evenly applying, as it will colour your hands more strongly... but overall I'm very impressed with the sun kissed look... it works naturally looking, and as a moisturising lotion it's one of the best and longer lasting that I've used.

Best tan builder ever. My advice with gradual self tan, after using this product is to buy the dark version. I only applied this twice to have a great natural looking tan. I do advise using a tanning mit, for even coverage. I have just been abroad and used this before I went. Gave me lots of confidence to wear what I wanted, in a hot climate. Got lots of positive comments about my tan! Used as a sun screen while there and bizarrely didn't get one mosquito bite. Could be luck, but here's hoping. I didn't notice a strong scent, so that's another plus. Definitely will continue to use all summer. 😁😎

I've been using this product for just over a day. Having just applied this product for the second time, I can say that it doesn't smell like apricots at all. It does just smell like other gradual fake tan lotions although it is a mild smell. The smell does get stronger the longer it's on the skin though but it depends how much you hate the smell as to whether that would bother you. Personally I'm ok with it, I apply it in the evening and wash it off in the morning so I don't smell like it during the day. I can't comment as to whether it would leave marks on bedding or clothes though as I don't put clothes on immediately after applying (it's best to let it dry off first) and my bedding is dark purple and therefore doesn't show any stains anyway. If you are worried about it leaving marks though I would recommend washing before getting in bed to be on the safe side. The product does state to not apply on the face, so I wouldn't recommend using it for that purpose also but there are many face tanning solutions on the market that would work. I just tend to use some bronzer when doing my make-up routine to even out the colour. Make sure to thoroughly and evenly rub the lotion in or it can leave streaks. I used to use a Garnier product that came out the bottle in a brown colour and it was slightly easier to apply evenly but with practice and making sure to be thorough this product is fine. The delivery was also quick (a couple days) which was good.

Leaves my skin wonderfully moisturised with an even summer glow! Absolutely love this product, it is the best gradual tanner that i have ever used. It does have quite a stong fragrance but it is more fruity smelling than the typical fake tan smell. This is the one i'll be sticking with from now on!

I go through this like Lindt Bunnies at Easter. Simple to apply, quick to dry and a few hours later you have a miraculous, even glow. Apply as many coats as you like until you've achieved the desired tone. Very natural colour. I used to use St Tropez which was three times the price and half as good. Don't forget to wash your hands after each application unless you want to look like a potato farmer.

Very good (re-formulated?) lotion, provides a good colour tan evenly and very quickly - but that typical smell!! The chemists still haven’t managed to crack the overpowering and distinctive biscuity odour of the lotion for the first 24 hrs.

Smells good, feels nice on as a moisturiser and builds a nice tan colour quite quickly.
