As summer is on its way and the sun is gradually coming out, i aswell as everyone else will be hoping that i can catch some of the sun and get a natural tan. However if like me you get bored of sitting in the sun, don't like the heat or don't tend to tan then this is the perfect product for you.
Dove tan moisturiser is the perfect combination of fake tan and moisturiser and gives you the perfect sunkissed look everyone longs for. The light moisturiser is easy to apply and can be worn after one coat or can be built up to give you a sunkissed holiday look. The product can be applied with a mitt or your hands with both application methods giving you an even coverage.
Pros of the product
- The product comes in a light or a dark option suiting most skin tones giving you a natural looking tan compared to the orangey colour that some fake tans give.
- The moisturiser has a nice sweet smell. It does not have a strong generic fake tan smell like biscuits or corn flakes which adds to the natural look of the product.
- The tan does not completely wash off in the shower/bath. It comes of slightly as expected when washing however it does not fully come off meaning that you need to re-apply your tan moisturiser again. In my opinion it looks better after a shower as a small amount has been washed off leaving you with an even tan, washing off any streaks on your skin from the previous application.
- The product dries instantly. You don't need to worry about drying time or feeling sticky. Once applying the product you can get dressed instantly and you don't have to worry about your clothes sticking to your skin and the product does not transfer onto your clothing meaning white clothes stay white!
- The main use of the product is to tan your skin but as it is also a moisturiser it leaves your skin feeling fully moisturised and super soft. This means that you do not need to apply two products and wait for the moisturiser to dry before applying fake tan as the two products are built into one.
- The Dove tan moisturiser has a very quick development time. The product only takes a couple of hours to develop. I usually apply it at night and leave it to develop whilst i sleep and apply another layer in the morning after a shower. However if you have a spontaneous night out and you are feeling a little pale you can apply it in the morning and afternoon and it will be fully developed for the evening giving you the same look as if you had built it up over a few days.
Cons of the products
I would not class these points as cons towards the products more just things to bear in mind when using the product
- You cannot see where you have applies the product as it is not instant and goes on clear to your body. Therefore in the morning you may see that you have missed a few parts/patches and therefore you need to fill these in the next day.
- The tan takes very well to your hands. You MUST remember to wash your hands instantly after using the product as if develops particularly dark on your hands and therefore people will know that you have applied fake tan and it is very hard to remove it from your hands. A tan mitt may be advisable to ensure that you do not get it on your hands.
