I've used a ton of self tanners..clarins (too light) jergens (sticky) sublime bronze (flakes off...etc etc.)
I have used Sun Giesee a few times before, applying with bare hands and it turned out alright. This time I applied it..STREAKS all over legs? Could be it because I used gloves?
My friend LOVES the color of her tanner, Glow Fusion (at Sephora) BUT it flakes off, almost in pieces...
Anyone know of a DARK color that doesnt fade or streak?

St.Tropez - the best! Really natural looking tan and fades well.:)

Hi
The best fake tan i found is one by dove called summer glow. It is a moisturiser which takes up to 5 days to work and you can buy it in different shades. It doesn't streak and you don't need to exfoliate like you do with others.
I ahve tried others and they all streak, fade in patches, or builds up at a certain area, but this one doesn't. Also it is a gorgoeus natural looking tan, none of the orange colour, it really does glow and it has a sheen to it.

Yes I use the Dove daily tanner (medium-dark) and it turns your skin a lovely golden colour with no streaks.
The body shop stuff is quite good as well and Aveda, though its a bit pricier at 17 pounds (but smells better than the rest)

victoria's secret is my choice, usually when you exfoliate most self tanners come off when you exfoliate, not completely tho, after taking a shower, mosturizing, if you can scratch the skin and nothing dark comes under your nails, the yes it's a good tanner, otherwise if the dead skin isn't gone you're skin won't :wave: be GLOWING

2-3 years ago, our local paper tested several brands of self-tanners, from $$$$$ to $. The best in their opinion: Neutrogena, available in Wal-Marts, Longs drugstores, etc. I've used the spray-on (not an aerosol; it's a pump).
I do exfoliate before I use it to get rid of dead/dry skin. Cheap exfoliator? Cornmeal scrubs away the bumps and yucky skin. Washes right down the shower drain.
ETA: I also used the foam; it's great, too!

Use anything, but put a little regular lotion with it. Works wonders.
