I have tried plenty of fake tans. From St. Moriz to St. Tropez. Tried also sunlabs lotion, it gave me the most natural looking tan, but this sunlabs spray is the most easy to apply, gives very even and natural tan. I prefer this spray tan, rather than a lotion. With lotion it was not easy to make nice application on hands and feet. But the liquid tan gave the best results. It dries almost instantly and application is more even than with a lotion. Because it is in a very thin layer. Take a shower, exfoliate, spray the liquid on a mitt and rub it in. Smells like almonds. Wash of next day and voila! You are a sun godess:) I´ve purchased 1 liter bottle and hope it will last a long time. I love it!

Sun Laboratories Express Liquid Tan is the best i have used. I am very pale, and it is the only tan that looks natural and doesnt make me look orange. It doesnt look 'fake' and when you have just applied it it doesnt look like it has just been applied. It's tinted so you can see where it's applied. It also kind of 'sinks' into your skin and doesnt sit on it like other fake tans. it dries pretty much instantly. It doesnt smell. The mitt didnt come with mine but i got it online from sospecial.co.uk and i got a double pack which was discounted. It comes in a 150ml or 300ml size and there is also a face gel which is also tinted, i havent tried it but i bet it's good!

Easy to use, lasts ages, dries quickly, very natural looking colour, lots of repeat usage and most importantly a great smell! I bought this tan from the sunlabs website after being told about it by a friend. The liquid tan is easy to use, just pour a small amount on to the application mitt (which is provided FREE, another great selling point!) and apply to your body. I found that this tan was so easy to use and the mitt enables you to create a streak-free tan with a great colour! The following day, after showering, I was left with a great looking tan and this lasted for about 6 days. I have used this bottle 5 times and it still has about one third of the liquid left. In my opinion this is the best value for money fake tan on the market and I should know, I've tried them all!!!!

I must admit, the first time I used Sun Laboratories Express Liquid Tan I was hesitant to use it again. But I gave it another try and after that, application became much easier. I was recommended this product by a friend. I purchased it from Harvey Nichols but I believe it can also be purchased online.

The tanner comes in a 150ml bottle which is not very big but as it is a liquid rather than a cream, a little goes a long way. An application mitt comes free in the box which is handy. I wont be applying it to my hands or face any more as it dried my face out and stained my hands. After learning my lesson though, I now mix the tanner with some moisturiser and apply to my hands which gives them a nice tint rather than having white hands! Oh and of course I thoroughly exfoliate beforehand.

The tanner just gets applied to the mitt and smooths onto the skin, I find long strokes are the best way to apply, starting with the feet and working upwards. The liquid is a very dark brown but this is only the guide colour so you can make sure you have applied it everywhere. The product actually smells nice on application, it's supposed to smell of cherry almond or something! But, once it has dried and starts to develop, I find it starts to smell like the usually nasty fake tan smell. It dries really quickly but you're not allowed to shower for 7 hours so it's better to apply at night before bed. I haven't found that it stains the sheets like fake bake does. When I shower, the dark colour guide washes off and I'm left with a natural looking, even tan. I have quite pale skin and dark hair so I usually apply a few coats.

The first time I used it I had to moisturise every night because my skin felt quite dry. Since then I have used it quite a few times and haven't needed to moisturise (I'm so lazy!) and it lasts about a week on my skin, depending on how many coats I apply.

It is slightly expensive at £20 per bottle but compared to other leading brands, the bottle lasts quite a while and I can honestly say it is the best self tanner for colour, ease of application and streak free, even tan that I have ever used.
