Moisturising, easily absorbed. pleasant light fragrance, resulting colour natural light golden (on very fair skin) and non-streaky. As the colour develops, it’s accompanied by the unmistakable “biscuity” smell, which simply cannot be avoided (regardless of what some companies would have you believe). Still, this is a great bronzer. Two applications (24 hrs apart) gave my arms and legs a really lovely golden colour. As good as any expensive equivalent.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This has a lovely bronzing effect and tans well. As I’m quite olive -medium skin toned I’m not sure how much this tanned me as I am already pretty tanned however it does have a beautiful glow which stayed for just over a week.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The texture of this is fab, and it gave my legs a nice subtle glow. It smelt lovely too and was a great product to use. I didn't get streaks even though I just slapped it on. Not sticky or heavy. I mainly used this on my legs

Reliable self-tanner!
Received Free Product

I’ve been using the Ambre Solaire Natural Bronzer Self Tan Lotion for a few weeks now, and it’s been a mostly positive experience. The lotion is enriched with vitamin E and apricot kernel oil, which helps keep my skin moisturised while developing a natural-looking tan. The tan appears within an hour and lasts up to a week, fading evenly without patchiness .
Application is straightforward. The lotion absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a sticky residue. I appreciate that it doesn’t have the overpowering scent common in many self-tanners; instead, it has a subtle fragrance .
However, there are a few downsides. The product contains alcohol denat. and fragrance components, which might irritate sensitive skin . Also, while the tan develops quickly, I found that reapplying every few days helps maintain an even colour.
Overall, it’s a reliable self-tanner that delivers a natural glow without the typical drawbacks of streaks or strong odours. Just be mindful if you have sensitive skin.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great Olive Tones

This gradual self-tan lotion has a natural, subtle effect that builds up with every use. It gives a very natural-looking tan with an olive undertone, which I naturally have, so this suits me really well. The tan is not far off my normal skin tone, but just gives a healthier full bronze glow which looks really good. When applying out of the bottle, it has a light orange colour (this changes once developed to be more neutral olive rather than warm toned). It has a thin, lightweight consistency that is easy to spread over your body. It has a fairly noticeable scent, which is sweet and slightly chemically, however, it is not unpleasant. I really like this product and I think that it gives a really good result that I would use regularly!
