| | | dove fake tan moisturiser. is this any good?
i've tried johnson's holiday skin but it didn't work on me. i used it every day and it turned out all patchy. i was really disappointed with that shit.
yesterday i saw a similar dove product but didn't buy it in case it's just the same as johnson's. anyone know? |

| | | hey people on my course were talking about this today. this girl who works in boots said that all the customers big up "dove " and the "johnsons" but apparently the "Nivea" one is the best and all the customers and staff apparently all use it and say it's really good.

| | | advice to everyone/anyone - don't go near the johnsons holiday skin. awful, awful stuff.
last year i used a garnier 'due' self tan, it came in a small, dark brown tube and is the most even fake tan i've ever used. i can't find it this summer though.
how did the nivea one go? i think i'll try that next. |

| | | I guess I'm just lucky I tan really well. Yes, it's bad for you, but I'd rather have a real tan than look orange. I don't trust the bottled tans.
In the winter I look alive with a good bronzing powder. |

| | | ive used the boots and johnsons one and they both owrk for me. the trick is not to put too much on to avoid streaks and really rub it in well |

| | I started using the Dove one a couple of nights ago and my arms/top half look great and surprisingly brown already (I erred on the side of caution and went for the 'fair' version), however for some reason my legs have gone a bit patchy and orange which is odd considering they're the part I took the most care over... I think I may have skimped a bit on the exfoliating  however it's definitely better than Johnson's and it doesn't smell as vile either. |

| | | my skin is really fair because im a natural blond so I can't tan naturally I just burn. I tried johnsons holiday skin, the lighter one and it went streaky and orange! I had to spend ages in the shower trying to scrub it all off! I think I'm just destined to being pale. |

| | | I've been wanting to try something like this for a while. I think I'll try the HT one first since it's getting such great reviews. |

| | i bought the loreal one and its really good. i'm still getting slightly darker knees, but this is expected really because i have really dry skin. i'd reccommend it anyway  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
