Would you do Dave?

You wouldn’t think a 30-something-year-old guy would know much about women and fake tanning. You’d think a 20-something-year-old guy would know even less, right? Well not Dave.

Sick of seeing women continually causing damage to their skin by sunbaking, or sporting ultra-fake, orange-looking tans, Dave – back then a guy barely out of his teens – decided to develop, of all things, a good quality, natural-looking fake tan. Called Famous Dave’s Tanner of course.

Be it a bit of blind faith in himself, or just damn right prophetic, Dave’s quirkily named self-tanner soon shot to fame in both the US and the UK (the brand has over 17,000 testimonials!), and finally – finally – it’s landed on our shores.

So what can you expect from Famous Dave’s Tanner? Well, for a start, its formulation has been fine-tuned to ensure that no orange undertones appear as your tan develops, so the only colour your skin will turn is a gorgeously natural-looking shade of bronze. It’s also packed full of natural ingredients to help keep your skin hydrated and nourished throughout the lifespan of your tan.

Oh and did we mention it’s streak-free too and also caters to those with fair skin or who want a light tan (try: Famous Dave’s Tanner Fair Skin and Face), as well as to those who have darker skin or want a deeper tan (try: Famous Dave’s Tanner Dark with Bronzer).

But if you’re more of a middle-of-the-road type of gal, then there’s no going past Famous Dave’s Tanner Original Moisture Tan. It produces a golden tan in one application, without the telltale smell of a freshly applied fakie.
