Summary
I found this too heavy on my skin and it didn't fully absorb. I felt like. You skin was greasy/oily after application. The scent was so strong it was off putting and if you don't apply this properly you end up all streaky.

I find this is quite a good tanning product and find that I am better with the darker version rather than the lighter one. It needs to be applied after a good exfoliation and then I pout a bit of body lotion on my knees and ankles before applying this. I find because it builds gradually that small mistakes are not that obvious and I usually get a pretty even coverage.
It does smell pretty strong of false tan nut as I only use it on my legs I can sort of avoid smelling it too much.
I usually put it on before I go to bed and that stops me rubbing away parts of the lotion with my clothes.

Well I suppose it does what it's suppose to and that's give a gradual tan. Good to build up or have as a slight glow.
Weakest points
Smells horrible, quite oily on skin, gave me dry patches on arms after a few days, and if not applied properly can go streaky.
Summary
At first try of this product I thought...not bad. But as the days went on after application, I noticed the bad smell linger and dry patches began to form on my upper arm. Granted this could just be my skin, however, I didnt feel it exactly hydrated my skin. The tan is there but this product just isn't for me,

The lotion absorbed in to the skin well and the meduim tan colour was noticable straight after my first application.
However the smell was very off putting, I then had to quickly wash my hands to get rid of the smell which was very noticable and strong.
For that reason alone I wouldn't recommend this one.
