Clinique Self-Sun Touch of Bronze Moisturizing Body Lotion

Average member rating of 6.0

Rated a 7.5
For self-tanning novices, Clinique's mistake-proof Self-Sun Touch of Bronze Moisturizing Body Lotion is a good start. Even when sloppily rubbed in, the gradual tan-building lotion remains streak-free and gives legs a naturally bronze look after a week of daily application. On the flip side, the sticky formula takes at least five minutes to absorb before you can get dressed, while the light, citrus-scent inevitably smells strongly of DHA. It's also not the most economical way to bronze (a tube lasts barely a month if you tan your whole body) -- but the results are worth it.

      Nice color....still has that funky smell though

July 17, 2008, 12:04 pm I purchased this after reading other reviews on this site because it was noted to have less of that funky, self-tanner odor than most. I have mayonnaise-white legs and this gives me a nice, natural color that lasts for several days with just one application. No streaks either...which was a giant plus! I agree that the odor is better than others I've tried, but it's still there. I suggest putting it on in the evening about 10 minutes before you go to bed (it dries very quickly) so that you can wash most of the smell away in the morning before you go out.

      Clinique's Touch of Bronze Moisturizing Body Lotion

      by mythbusterbeauty (10 reviews)
      Like with many sunless tanners. nothing is 100% mistake-proof, maybe nearly mistake-proof is a more accurate description. Cliniques Touch of Bronze when applied evenly is a very natural looking, moisturizing sunless tanner. I did notice some blotchy patches around my ankles or knees, so it is important to exfoliate first....

I did notice some blotchy patches around my ankles or knees, so it is important to exfoliate first. I also like that the Clinique lotion doesnt have a strong scent and my sensitive skin tolerated it well (even my newly shaved legs)! I felt like Clinique's product works marginally better than my other favorite drug store brand Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer, mainly because it feels slightly more moisturizing and is better suited for sensitive skin.
