Can anyone recommend a good one? I was thinking of either the Australian gold or carrot sun. Thanks in advance!

No evidence, I'm afraid. Just fake tan and babble. Don't forget your s p f.

I have a Gatineau one (but I haven't used it seriously yet , I'm going away in Oct)

It smells nice so it's nice to use as a lotion as well.

I have the Elemis tan accelerator. It smells nice and is a nice light body moisturiser if nothing else! I will start using it tomorrow as we go away on the 9th August. I have used the Gatineau one and got a tan on my legs which don't usually get any colour at all.
I also bought Lancaster Tan Maximizer/After sun which I read about on a thread here. MN made me buy it!

I find Boots Soltan Tan and Protect spf very good too. It contains the same stuff as accelerators (Tyrosine?) and helps me get a nice colour with very little sun exposure. I only use it on my legs though as they need help to tan. I use Ultrasun on my upper body.

My mum's been raving about the elemis one, will have a look at gatineau too thanks.

I've already got some superdrug spf cream with tan accelerator, but don't think it'll last very long. I really crave one of those lovely deep tans!
