    I like Jergens the best. They have a couple different types (lotion, foam) and all of them are good.

    I've used lots of different self-tanners...and this is the best I've found....It's spray-on, (don't rub it in) so there are no streaks, and it's not orange..I always get mine at wal-mart for about $7-$8 per bottle, and it'll do my whole body 3-4 times...

    Dove Energy Glow is my favourite but it is a gradual self-tanner so you won't be instantly dark (good to moderate the amount of tan you want).

    As far as instant self-tanners go, L'Oreal Sublime Bronze is definitely my favourite.

    I like Jergens as well, but I find that if you don't apply it EVERY day, eventually on the inner elbow and backs of your knee it looks like it is peeling. You have to either wear it each day or prepare for some serious exfoliation to get it off.. it was a pain to fix the inconsistencies.

    I use the Jergen's Natural Glow. I don't use it every day because I'm super-pale and it gets a bit orange. I use it 3-5 days a week and it gives a enough color to not see my veins on my legs (I only use it on my legs).

    It's a super-fine mist and I do it in the bathroom, and just wipe over the floor with a towel when done...It will leave brown streaks on the towel, the it comes out in the laundry. You have to stand there naked for about 10 mins to let it dry ( I dry myself with my blow dryer if I'm in a hurry), but after that 10 mins, it doesn't rub off or get on anything...It doesn't instantly give you color, but the color will appear in 3-5 hours..It'll last 4-6 days according to how much swimming you do.. I normally apply it once every 3 days to keep my tan looking good when I use it. I swear it's pretty awesome...I probably go through 10 bottles a summer...LOL

    That or you look like you got attacked by kids with orange markers! There is nothing wrong with being pale and going to the beach like that! :flowerforyou:

    I agree about the smell.... They need to do something about it... maybe a good purfume fragrance lol at least it would attract more people to buy them.

    YES! It sure beats skin cancer and wrinkles.............. I use Estee Lauder and I really like it. No orange or streaks. It does smell though 9they all do)

    I use the Victorias Secret brand on my face and that doesnt smell as bad..........

    Be careful with white clothes before you shower........... and make sure to exfoliate before you use it!
