So for a person who only produces two colors in all four seasons( meaning ghostly white, and the lovely lobster red) I would highly recommend this product! I was looking for a cost effective alternative to a tanning bed when I stumbled across this product in Winners. Not knowing much about self tanners nor having ever tried one, I thought for 10$ what do I have to lose. Either it works out for me or I turn into a Florida orange! To my surprise it ended up working out! Being very careful to massage into my skin in a circular motion, after three days not only did I but my boyfriend started to notice a difference as well! This does not give you any orange hues or glows, but a nice even bronzed look! $10.00 very well spent!
