Great color and no streaks BUT I got a horrible rash all over and my face felt like I had a chemical peeling done – very dry and red skin. This is the second time that I had such a reaction to a tanner, also from another self-tanner by Decleor. Another con is the smell, comparing to so many other brands, Decleor product smell is among the worst.

Best self-tan I`ve tried (I have tried Natusan, Body Shop and Yves Rocher). One reviewer complained about the smell, but honestly, there is not much smell - the scent is somewhat similar to unscented body lotion.

This self-tanner looks even, and there is not even a hint of orange. As other reviewers have mentioned, the term "milk" is not a good description, it is more like a lotion. There is very many applications in one package - which is great, because you will need more than one application to get a tan. I think three or four will do ;)

I believe this is best on light to medium skin tones, as the tan is very gradual and descrete. Great for scandinavian skin!

I really enjoyed using this product. I used it on my face and it gave me good color that was not at all blotchy or streaky, just a nice, even warm tan--very easy to apply. The downsides are the price and the fact that the SPF is only 8. Given it's better than nothing, but couldn't they at least do SPF 15?

This stuff smells like crap. Think your grandmas worst musky perfume super concentrated. Dose not even give the best color. I didnt even see a difference. Such a waste of money.

I love the natural looking color of this. It applies easily and does not smell funny. It does not look blotchy. It is my favorite tanning lotion for my face. It is a little pricy but I have not found anything cheaper that looks this good. I'm only using it on my face so it does last a long time. I good tip for people who use sunless tanner is that nail polish remover takes the tanner off if you have any dark spots (like on your knees or elbows). This tanner however was perfect. Apply it at night and wake up tan in the morning. I did use rubber gloves when I applied it. This is something that you can use everyday to build the color you want. I use -tantowel plus- for the rest of my body and also something I use to build the color. These are on ebay and are in a silver foil package. I also use Australian Gold Colorology Pink Passion Bronzing Tanning Lotion as a daily lotion that gives my skin a nice healthy glow. I don't use it to tan just as a moisturizer and I lvoe it. I also use it on my face and have even applied makeup over it.

wow this stuff is the best self tanner i have ever tried. i scored HUGE and won a box of fun fro Decleor from LUCKY magazine this was one of the items in the box - so i can not comment on the crazy prices of Decleor products, as i got over $250 worth of product for free!! but this self tanner is amazing. very thick and rich, which is not what i expected from something called 'milk' it is very moisturizing. not tinted, it is white, which is no big deal, it sinks in quite easily, does take a while to dry, left me a bit sticky and tacky, but softer than most self tanners after application. the smell is great, none of the stench that i expect from ST, so that is a huge plus. the color is a beautiful golden brown, not orange, no sparkles, just a deep rich glow from within, amazing product.

Absolutely my favorite when it comes to self-tanning! This one and id faux tan is the best in the market, if you ask me. Especially if there is talk about price. Have tried a bunch of self-bronze, but these two I always end up with. decleor is best to use in summer, for example, to use it before you on the beach and sun holiday. It provides a better basis, I think. Do not have to come entirely pale on the beach: p ID faux tan can be a bit smudged contact with chlorine and too much water. But it is best when it comes to be nice and brown for a special occasion and parties, etc.

This is it ladies (and men). The best on the market!!!! Smells great, no next day smell to feel self-conscious about, dries quickly and leaves a gorgeous golden tan. I put it on in the evening and then one more time before bed, just to get a deeper color. It lasts the whole week through!
I am not lying when I say I have tried almost all of them-

Clarins (good but smells horrid)
Fusion Beauty (streaks and stinks)
Mistic Tan (streaky and hard to apply)
Bare Escentials (streaked and ORANGE)
Neutragena (stinks and fades)

Decleor is the only one I will use until it inevitably gets discontinued as does all things I fall in love with.

LOVE this! The best self tanner I have ever used! First, there is no odor (my boyfriend even commented on how good the fresh scent smelled on my skin), and the rich cream is SO softening because of the essential oils! It took about two hours for my color to shown up, but it was amazingly even and a completely natural looking bronze! I also felt that the product dried into my skin a lot faster than other greasy self tanners I've tried. Sorry for all the exclamation marks, but this is my new miracle product!! Will definitely repurchase (even at $36 a tube).

Believe it or not, this product is the first self-tanner I've ever used. Right now I've switched to Jergen's Natural Glow just to compare and I even want to try a couple more (L'Oreal Sublime Glow, Neostrata). I used this all over my body and face. The smell is not wonderful (my husband actually made a comment!) and if you use it before bed like I did, you feel a little sticky and slimy. But again, I have nothing to compare it to. I was, however, very impressed when I woke up the next morning and found that I had a really nice tan. It was instant. I will give an update on how this compares to Jergens and the others. Overall it's a pretty good self tanner.

This has emerged as my favorite self tanner. I have a drawer filled- Clinique, Clarins, Lancome, Dior, Pout, Tantowels, MAC, St Tropez, Fake Bake, BBW, more. I like this one-it doesn't stink, (faint self tan aroma, but not bad) Goes on easily and smoothly, and gives a gentle natural look. I get a golden glow and it doesn't give me orange knees! Works well on my face, and a deeper color can be gradually built with it. It even seems to last fairly well and dries quickly after application, so I can apply it before bed with no problem. This and Lancome Flash Bronzer are my favorites-this is the more natural looking of the two.

PROS: Very nice, natural looking color on my PPP skin. Least offensive odor of the self tanners I've tried (most recently Clinique, Savage Bronze, Neutrogena, Body Drench but I've tried a bunch over the years)
CONS: It is labeled as a milk but it's a cream. It seems like I'm using a lot since it's thick and at $34 for a 4.2 oz tube I don't want to go through it too quickly. Also, it leaves my skin feeling greasy for a while after applied.
As an experiment I used Decleor on one leg and a sample of Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel (Gelee Auto-Bronzante)on the other. For self tanner stink, they were about equal, neither one too bad. The Decleor color was darker and nicer and I thought the Clarins was more yellow. The Clarins gel definitely seems less sticky, but I would repurchase Decleor over Clarins for the beautiful, deeper color.
