The glow tanning lotion arrived within the next week and I was so anxious to try it! First I took a shower and exfoliated with a sponge. I dried myself good and then applied the lotion to my face, legs, arms, and stomach. The smell is definitely 10x better than any other fake tanning lotion i've used, it was not very strong. My hands immediately turned orange so I had to figure out a strategy to wipe off my hands without washing off the lotion on the top of it...hard to do! You shouldn't put clothes on right after or within 10 minutes of applying to get the best look. I have found if you apply the lotion and then go to sleep, your coverage will be awful on your arms! (I tend to sleep with my elbows bent).
In conclusion, I would recommend this for a special event where you need a nice glow but not for everyday use like it suggests.
