Vicky tells us 'the Olsen twins and Drew Barrymore are fans of this self tan, so if Hollywood's hottest are up for it, hell, so am I! The lotion goes on easily, absorbs quickly and smells delicious – a bit like marzipan and nothing like that horrid fake tan Bisto whiff. I was really pleased with the natural colour of the tan – more olive than orange and quite convincingly Mediterranean. And it was still visible after five days. I'll be buying this again, definitely.'

Six of the Best Self Tanners

The Tan Commandments go something like this…
1. Defoliate, exfoliate and moisturise.
2. Don latex gloves (10p per pair from your local pharmacy)
3. Stay sober.
4. Apply self tan evenly and carefully, with minimal coverage on joints.
5. Buff with a mitt or dark towel.
6. Go for the ‘double dip’ by repeating steps 2-6.
7. Display your flawless tan in something short and sassy.
