Count me in as another fan of tantowels. They are perfect for face and body. I buy the evolution ones, which are large enough for your whole body. I use the plus formula, which is designed for darker skin, even though I am quite fair. It works great for me. I buy them through HSN for the best deal around (I have autoship every 5 weeks or so), but you can also buy them on other websites including Sephora. http://www.hsn.com/cnt/prod/default.aspx?webp_id=2022468&web_id=2022468&sz=0&sf=bs&dept=&cat=&subcat=&gs=&attr=896&prev=hp!sf!896&ocm=
 
I am sunless with Jergens Dailey Glow. I cannot countenance any other type of tan since those will kill you. The Jergens is not too dark but it's not streaky at all and it moisturizes to a certain extent. I apply my regular moisturizers over it and it has an SPF of 25. It's for medium skin tones.

I just tried Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer for medium/tan skin tones....Now we're talking. Really nice color, they just came out with this darker version and it looks great! They also have a version for the face which I am going to try today.

I can't stand the scent of sunless tanners, but the Coppertone Gradual Tanner is very good. It doesn't get that bad smell for several hours, so after a few I usually take a quick shower.

Actually, someone from here recommended this site: www.sunless.com

The forums are very interesting - some of these people are seriously dedicated to their tans!
 
Also, I checked out sunless.com and sounds like the Dove one has a really nice fragrance. Maybe Bath & Bodyworks has a pleasant one too. I'll have to check it out.

Most of them remind me of the smell of sweat. Yum. The Jergens is pleasant smelling and it does mosturize really well. I am gatting pretty tan with daily application and several people have been surprised to find out it's sunless. I exfoliate daily and have had none of the weird blotching I have experienced in the pass as skin sloughs. I did notice the wrinkles in the crook of my elbows had orange lines but I have been scrubbing that and it's gone. Knees, elbow and backs of knees are nice too.

Lisa, I got a small tube of the stuff for faces when I bought the two pack of Jergen's at Costco. I like the body stuff better. It gets darker.

My solution...I'm proud of my fair Irish skin! It's cheap, you don't have to smear chemicals on your body, and there's no worries about streaking..unless you feel compelled to run naked through a crowd. ;)
 
Okay, here is my questions regarding this. How do you get the hard to reach areas on your back? For the life of me, I can never get that spot in the middle.
 
My husband, and if you don't have one lay in the sun,LOL!! Or at least that is what I am doing for my back. Sorry no other help here.
 
Yea, I would use my husband if he were home but he is only home one day a week and I don't have time to lay in the sun. Does that new spray stuff work. I thought of trying that. I can't remember what it is called, but maybe I will try that.
 
They do have brushes that are supposed to work but I would try the spray. I am recovering from a migraine so I have nothing better to do....I am going to spray my back with Neutrogena MicroMist Tanning sunless Spray in Medium. will check back in a few hours and let you know the results!!!

Well, I just checked and I think spraying those hard to reach areas works! I just sprayed it any way I could....Not streaky and blends in nicely. Good to solve at least one problem today!!I used the Neutrogena MicroMist Tsnning Sunless Spray, in medium, 2 shades darker.
