    Reef`s tan oi does smell fabulous.. but personally.. with tanning products .. when i use them .. i make sure im out in th sun for only 15 mins.. because any longer you are causing damage to your skin.. and I tend to burn as well .

    haha its still so popular right ?

    i personally like it.
    i used the “dark tan“ one with no spf on my legs this morning…at 8am !

    7 mins with it on ( and no sunscreen) was enough.

    i think this is definitely a gradual thing, do a tiny bit everyday and it`ll work wonders 🙂

    I can`t believe this product is still on sale, I agree smells great and we used to lather it on in Adelaide in the 80`s and guess what my skin is not so good in my 40`s, but also did the baby oil thingy. These days especially in Nth Queensland no hanging on the beach!!!!

    sunscreen is very important! did any of you watch the oprah show last night, and see the commercial about the young man who died from a skin cancer, so sad! just shows you we may live in such a beautiful country but we do have very very strong UV rays so SLIP SLOP SLAP SLIDE ( they recently added the slide on the sunnies) (:

    Hi Meilz92 – I love reef but use it ontop of a broad spectrum UVA/B sunscreen cause this one only protects against UVB. I hope they add UVA ingredients then it would be my HG summer sunscreen. I believe oil attracts sunlight and kind of fry`s you so helps you tan? Something like that anyway, someone else can correct me if I`m wrong. But its definitely supposed to speed up your tanning rate.

    I do the same.. I actually used it at the beach yesterday…
    I applied my sunscreen at home all over.. And then applied reef oil once I was down at the beach… I still achieved a deep tan…
    Girls please please please apply sunscreen it is sooo important!!!!
    xox

    thats what i did too ! worked for me <3
    sunscreen is important no matter what, cos if its anything more than a minor burn, its gonna peel off anyway and that sucks having patches.

    i`ve always wondered what it was like, im defernately going to try it out to get a better tan

    It comes in SPF 30 now.
    It`s the only one i`ve been able to find.
    I always always wear sunscreen underneath though.

    Got the SPF 30+ one yesterday, however it is a cream and not an oil, can`t wait to try it out 🙂
