I can't fault this tan. My mum bought this for me once as a gift (the high price tag had deterred me) but I always fall back on it.
As with any fake tan application, I always make sure I exfoliate and shave in the days leading up. I find that if I shave the day of my tan, I end up with the tan depositing in my pores - which is not a pretty look.
When I apply, I use a mitt as I don't want to get the tan on my hands. This tan doesn't dry as quickly as some others, which is a good and bad thing. It means that it glides on SO beautifully, and I don't feel like I need to work it as hard as I do others. However, it does mean you end up feeling slightly sticky for a while. I'd recommend standing in front of a fan for a bit!
The tan does come out quite dark, which is a bit intimidating. However the majority of this guide colour comes off in the shower, and it develops darker post-shower so don't be disappointed if it is not as dark as you'd like to start with.
I find I get 5-7 good days out of this tan.
