Better than most self tanners
luckybetty (880 reviews)

I've tried several different self tanner lotion/moisturizer, and I like this one the best. The fragrance is sweet (due to the Gingko Extract?), a bit stonger than I prefer, but it does not have nasty chemical smell as some other self tanners do. The non-greasy moisturizer gives light/subtle natural looking tan to my skin. Finally! Most other self-tanners did not give me any result. I don't notice any effect of the firmness, but it does leave my skin soft — 3 years, 10 months ago

Naturally sun kissed
Pamela937 (520 reviews)

This is a grand product. It is natural and the glow stays with you for serveral days. Nivea has one of the best moisturizer out there on the market and for an affordable price. LOVE IT Love It love it — 3 years, 10 months ago

Almost No Color
amygab1126 (240 reviews)

This lotion smells alright and feels great, but it just doesn't contain enough tanner. I'm really pale, so a difference should've been apparent. After five days, I saw nothing close to the color change shown on the bottle. I mean, I'd wake up looking a bit darker (having applied the lotion the morning of the previous day), but then I'd shower and be right back to square one. So, it's like the color takes 18 hours or so to appear and then washes right off. This stuff was kind of high-priced for a lotion, too. A little does go a long way - it's super-runny - but this isn't effective enough to be worth it. — 2 years, 2 months ago

Not For Me
Feline44mom (192 reviews)

Has a watery consistancy, smells wierd & doesn't give me much color. I ended up tossing this. There are much better self tanners out there like Banana Boat's Summer Color. :-) — 6 months, 2 weeks ago

love this product!
cjw1122 (27 reviews)

i am always afraid to use self tanner so i like to use the gradual lotions. this one is the best! i started noticing that a co-worker had really nice color. she told me she started using the nivea sunkissed lotion so i had to give it a try! i was SO happy with the results! i had a touch of color after the first application. no streaking and the smell wasn't offensive at all. i have to say i have gotten so many compliments on how my skin looks and how nice my color is! and it's an awesome moisturizer at that! — 8 months ago

I love it ( :
LaurenEmily (1 reviews)

I've been using this for about a week & I love it! I put it on every night & when I wake up in the morning I can definitely tell a difference. I tan outside every day so I use the medium/dark shade. It gives a perfect color, not orange-y, and it doesn't smell gross like every other self-tanner I've tried. I haven't noticed my skin getting any 'firmer', but I still think it's a great tanner (: — 2 years ago

peeling skin
aleks (1 reviews)

I'm on day two of using this product, and it has made the skin on my hands peel. On day one, my hands felt RIDICULOUSLY soft and itchy. Then I woke up to my thumb peeling. The peeling has just gotten worse over time. I don't really see a color difference yet, and I'm not too fond of the smell. But if you have sensitive skin, just be very careful. — 2 years, 9 months ago

I dont like the smell!
shellseeker (14 reviews)

I have been using this product for 2 weeks now, and I am not seeing very much change in the color of my legs. I don't like the smell either, I think it smells like all ofher self tanners. i love many Nivea products, but I am disappointed by this one. — 2 years, 9 months ago

if this is foolproof, I must be a fool...
swf36d (9 reviews)

I specifically bought this in the light to medium color because I didn't want to go through all the prep work I do with my normal self tanner (Fake Bake). Not only did I wake up with streaks and dark splotches around my ankles, I hated the scent of this. When I smelled it in the bottle, I though it had little or no scent. That was not the case. I was a strong fruity scent that I didn't like at all, not just the normal self tanner scent. I am very fair, but I thought the color on this was a bit on the orangy side. I wouldn't recommend it. — 3 years ago
