Anyone recommend it? Thinking of trying it,usually use St Tropez.

Can't reccomend it enough, it's a much more natural tan than st tropez imo (brown rather than orange toned), I get the mousse one as it's really easy to apply

Amazing! Smells lush too and you won't ever look orange or streaky

It started burning my skin and had to wash it off immediately so not suitable for sensitive skin.

I have the gradual tan one and it seems very natural to me and not streaky (but as it is an everyday gradual one, I guess you'd expect that). I am no expert in fake tan though.
It does smell a bit, but it isn't too offensive.

I've tried them all, I think. This is the best. I use the mousse. Very faint smell. Fool-proof application with mousse. Don't worry if it looks streaky - that's just to show where you applied it. 5 hours later, when you shower, the tan is even.

oh gosh no!
I'm not mad about it and have about half a bottle, languishing in the wardrobe, as my fall back if I run out.
It's less greasy than St Tropez, and I found the colour lighter. But it washes off very quickly.
It's okish if you want to colour just lower arms and legs (e.g. this weather, rather than a whole body wash.
Smell is not particularly bad (none of them are "great" but some are more offensive than others).

Palmers Cocoa is my go to at the moment...but I am very pale, so really need just a wash of colour.

Clarins drops that you add to your own moisturiser is quite handy- I bought a bottle last summer, and there's loads left. You can decide how strong you want the colour to be...takes a bit of trial and error to see how many drops you need to get the correct colour for you.
I won't be re-buyng this as it's a bit of a faff.
