Fruity smelling, builds a nice, natural looking tan!

OK so I'm feeling like a bit of a freak because I actually really like the fruity smell of this product! It's one of the reasons I like it so much! That and it builds a beautiful colour and glow while keeping my skin hydrated. It may be called Summer Glow but it's my winter bff!

Good but not for water sports...

Gave me a nice glow but if you are a water sports person don't use I you will look yellow. It smelt a little strong gave me good moisture but it took ages to absorb

Don't pack it on in one go!

I was really impressed with this product, however found during trial and error to LIGHTLY build it up - i tried to put heaps on one day and it just resulted in a streaked mess.
The only thing i dislike would probably be the smell; its very strong and can be recognised as a tanning smell

Perfect for Me:)

Going through the reviews on hereIm quite surprised at all the low star ratings.
Im not much of a tanner as Im quite pale with freckles and everything is too dark or orange for me.I found this product fantastic though.Very easy to apply,alright smell and a natural looking even tan-well I'd call it more of a "colour" really as it doesnt really go too dark.
I think its perfect though.I use it for 2-3 days have a couple of days break and the start using again.I guess it really depend on your skin tone as to whether or not this will work for you.I saygive it a try,great product if it works for you:)

Got this as a gift from BH after winning something (cant remember) ages ago.. So i decided to try it the other day just before going to Supafest. I actually thought it'd be absorrbed pretty quick and maybe the colour will gradually work by itself.

So i applied it and the next thing i know, it was so sticky and smells too. I am not sure whether its just me but i got home from Supafest and needed another shower badly just cos i still felt the stickiness. Also, there was no colour at all.. Abit disappointed as i know usually dove products are great. So i just rate this ok

natural look

i really like this moisturiser!! It is great for fair skin as it is a gradual tan. Looks very natural and it does not come up orange at all! i give this product 4 stars just because the smell is a bit strong

Not too orange , but smelly.

Quite impressed after using Johnson's for so long.
Although the smell is totally different but equally bad .
On fair skin the result was more natural ,as expected with daily gradual tanners...

Colour and smell don't work for me :(

I bought this in a 2 for 1 pack and tried it straight away after a shower and good exfoliation. Being a moisturing cream I didn't bother moisturising my knees or elbows and other drier areas like I normally would and found that it still spread quite easily without any extra colour in those areas.

I did find however that the smell of it was a over bearing and the end colour wasn't really to my liking. It looked a little yellowish to me? I also found that it took too long to dry which is a definite put off for someone that doesn't have time to stand around trying to not let anything touch my skin! lol. I ended up giving it over to my teenage neice who LOVED it ... and her end colour looked far more natural than it did on mine. Im much fairer than her, so I'm wondering if it's just better on fair olive skin tones??

Not bad but not great

There are some mixed reviews about this and I guess it just depends on your skin tone, because for me it didn't really work as well as I'd hoped. The colour builds up well in the 5 days but after that I didn't really know what to do, when I kept using it my skin slowly turned orange and when I stopped it faded out to an unpleasant yellow. I used this whilst on holiday in qld and looking back on the photos the tan looks far from natural! It also fades away in streaks and the colour tends to linger on your knees/elbows/ankles which just looks ridiculous. I don't want to be too harsh though because it was at least really moisturizing and I've also tried the dove and nivea gradual tanners and found them to be pretty much the same.

Superb gradual tanner

I love this so much more than Johnson's Holiday Skin, the colour is much more natural and I think it smells better too. I like to use it every night before I go to bed, and after a couple of days it has built up a medium, natural looking tan. It's easy to apply, non streaky and smells so yummy and fragrant when you put it on. Great for topping up your tan when travelling or in Winter when you don't want a full on spray.
