Clinique Body Self Tanning Lotion Dark

I feel stupid. I look stupid. I have tried Clinique Self-Sun in dark. My hands and feet are a nice orange-brown, in spite of taking all of my usual precautions. Yesterday, I tried to remove some of the heavier crud on the sides of my wrists with my trusty cotton washcloth, and now my skin is red, white, and orange.

Clinique's products have always been the sunless tanning equivalent of bad acid. It's several hours later and you're staring in the mirror, wondering, "Is something happening?" But not anymore! The new Clinique Self-Sun in dark definitely happens. Just don't get it anywhere near your feet, ankles, hands, wrists, and face.

Feedback from others has convinced me that Type I and II skin types need to avoid this product, but Type III - IV can have a good time with it.
