  PROPER APPLICATION TIP:

  by CaitGOSABRES (1 review)

  This is actually a very beautiful product, and learned first hand from the longest tenured brand rep of Nars how to use this. The key to keeping this from rubbing off on your clothes is to apply this after you step out of the shower and are still damp! Your skin is more accepting of the oil, thus absorbing the color instead... of letting it sit on top of your skin. May 7, 2008, 9:34 am

  Pretty great

  by honeybee11 (14 reviews)

  I bought this when I went on vacation in Greece. If you already have a tan this enhances it and gives you that extra glow, and if you're fair skinned it gives you great color and shimmer without making you look orange . Like other reviewers have said though, be careful! I think I got a little too excited to use it an put on... perhaps more than I should have and ended up getting embarrassing stains on a while sun dress. If you're planning on being out in the sun too long don't put on a lot because it tends to sweat off a little. Give yourself a little time between putting it on and getting dressed. Other than that it's a wonderful product and smells amazing! February 22, 2008, 9:48 am

  Good product, but be careful.

  by RWilliams (22 reviews)

  A friend of mine gave me a bottle of this because she had too many beauty products and was getting rid of things she never used. I love it, but have to use it carefully. Like any "bronzer", I am careful to apply it and try not to wear light clothing with it. I use it most after I have been on the beach. I know som...e people who use this as a tanning oil, but I say this with caution- it doesn't have SPF. It smells amazing and I especially like how it makes my skin appear shimmery without looking like I took a bath in glitter. January 22, 2008, 11:25 am

  maybe I'm crazy....

  by melg_1981 (10 reviews)

  ...but this product smells distinctly of play-dough. and not in a cute, nostalgic sort of way. it competes with whatever fragrance i have on, so much so that people have commented on it. it does give skin a beautiful sheen, which only lasts a couple of hours and will meander into whatever crease it can find, making you l...ook tiger-like. i tried to use it on dry skin as well and just-out-of-the-shower damp, but it still was just OK. for the price, it really isn't worth it.

  I've given Nars products many, many shots. This I would say is the worst of the bunch, I don't like the smell at all and it rubs off on everything. It also solidifys in cold and must be soaked in warm water to soften. I got rid of a whole bottle of this, 2 multiples, the 'o' blush (this won't let you post that word:) -all b...asically unused, the list goes on, yet I'm still willing to try...

  it's all in how you apply it

  by luxegirl (10 reviews)

  The most important thing is that you warm it up first. You do this by warming up the bottle..turn the warm water on and submerge the bottle for a minute or two, don't add the water to the contents to dilute it. The water will break up the product. I love the way it smells and goes on. It isn't too greasy and gives just th...e right sheen and color and bronze. Wouldn't suggest putting it in the hair, however. But great for a night out.

  Love it but....

  by SexyMthrPucker (4 reviews)

  as the other reviewers have stated, it doesn't dry and tends to get everywhere. I think you either love or hate the fragrance of it (I love it personally). It does give you a great glow and works much better if you apply immediately after showering. I would definitely buy this again, but use caution when wearing. :) June 2, 2008, 10:02 am

  Love It...

  by TheMakeupGirl (8 reviews)

  This is the most amazing smelling thing around. It makes a tan look amazing and perfect for summer. A few tips, wait until it's dry before you get dressed if you are putting it on your arms or legs as it will rub off while it's wet. Also, if it solidifies immerse the bottle in a basin of hot water and it will loosen righ...t up again. January 9, 2008, 8:45 am

  This is a must for summer!

  by glossypink (29 reviews)

  An encounter with this liquid oil bronzer is sure to bring out your inner Brazilian beauty. This body bronzer may look like molten metal in the bottle, but it shows up on the skin as a subtly shimmery, sexy sheen. The tan-toned glow looks natural and healthy. Although this product is oil-based, it doesn't leave an oily fil...m, but absorbs beautifully, leaving skin softened and lightly moisturized. The Monoi de Tahiti oil fragrance is so unreal it deserves its own paragraph. This intoxicating tropical sweet (but not too sweet) floral will transport you to paradise, with a few admirers in tow. Resist the urge to totally bathe yourself in this product. You can still put it on head to toe, but use a very controlled amount, massage it in well and let it set for a few minutes before getting dressed. March 17, 2009, 6:02 pm
