OK. Here goes. I bought Famous Dave's Tanner, after reading Kariev's original post titled "sunnless tanner rave" back in February!
I used it last night for the very first time. I LOVE IT!
This is my very first time EVER using a self tanner of ANY kind and I was hesitant. But after checking out the website, that inner voice kept telling me, "this is the one". LOL I bought the original and the moisture tan.
Last night before bed, I put it on my abs and legs. I let it dry and then put on shorts, just because I was afraid it might rub off or something. I went to bed, and when I woke up this morning to workout, I was AMAZED at how it well it worked! Almost like magic!
Now, I did get a dark spot on my achilles area simply because I wasn't careful to heed the warning about elbows, knees, etc (it didn't mention the back-of-the-ankle area, though. lol). And my toes look a bit funny because I did apply it to my feet, but didn't get it evenly on my toes and in between. It tanned me evenly and smoothly, no blotches or streaks!
And it looks natural. I tan easily and evenly in the summer, and I was worried this would look orange or UNnatural. It looks great! I showered this morning and my towel did not turn brown or orange when I dried off (except, again, for where I really REALLY rubbed my back-of-the-ankle areas!!).
It has a very faint smell to it, but certainly not a 'stink'! So I was happy with that too!
Thank you, Kariev, for posting your original post, and for those with all the input that followed up on that!
