Best gradual tan for milk-like legs?

Bonus if it's not smelly and stains the sheets!

The bondi sands liquid gold is really good! Even on my pale legs! It gives an instant colour but doesn't wash off. Just remember to give your legs a proper prep for a few night prior and it will come out lovely and streak free!

I'll be watching as I have milk-bottle white legs and the skin on my lower legs is just different and doesn't colour at all in the sun, and all the gradual tans I've tried so far end up peeling in the heat. Not a good look Blush

So the Nivea Q10, L'Oreal Sublime Bronze and Garnier Summer Body did not work for me.

However, the L'Oreal Sublime Bronze BB Summer Legs make-up stuff does work for me and just takes the edge off. I don't know about the sheets as I've washed it off at the end of the day. But easy to put on and even finish and didn't wear off for me.

I swear by the Clarins fake tans. Their drops that you put in your own moisturiser are brilliant. I'm so pale I'm almost blue and the tan shades look very natural. You can control the depth of color with the number of drops you add.

I am the same and looked up somebody reviews - I was going to try the Dove Derma Spa

Dove summer revived fair to medium. It works well and doesn't stain the sheets but it has the usual smell unfortunately.

Superdrug 10 minute tan, the lotion, not the mousse. Leave it on for up to an hour, wash off, no marks or smelly bedclothes.

I'm using Palmers Cocoa Butter gradual tan moisturiser at the moment. It's good and not too streaky. Does smell pretty strong though!

Skinny tan gradual in light. Best I’ve found by far.

I really like the st tropez shower tan and their one minute mousse you wash off because I'm lazy. It's quick and doesn't smell and you can use daily to build the colour you want.
