Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Lotion SPF 8, Medium Deep

This is a rare breed: Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Lotion is a genuinely fast drying Drugstore/Supermarket brand. I used to think it smelled nice, but recent experiences have changed my mind. The amount of perfume in the product seems to have increased. I'm changing my vote to Hawaiian Tropic Herbal Self Tanning Foam as the best smelling Drugstore/Supermarket brand [you are now realizing the competition in this area isn't stiff]. While the smell hasn't improved, the color seems to be better than ever. Just don't forget the SPF 8 sun screen in this product is not adequate for sun protection.

Folks have wondered if there is a difference between Neutrogena Glow Sunless Tanning Lotion and Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Lotion. The answer is: the package. If you see both of these products on the shelf of your local drugstore, check the expiration date and pick the freshest one. It's confusing because Neutrogena also uses the phrase "Deep Glow" to describe their darkest formula.

That said, watch out because some places really mark up the price. Your discount drugstore is the place to buy it. I must also mention that this sunless tan is not particularly long lasting (three days or less).
