I’ve spent years trying gradual tans.
The biggest problem for me is getting them to dry without walking around like a zombie and staining bed clothes.
However last year I used Decleor and was very pleased with it. I could shower, towel dry, apply Decleor, get dressed and out the door immediately. The smell was ok (to me anyway) and the colour was noticeable but not tango and NO streaks.
Little read required.
A good gradual tan is by Dove. It's probs way cheaper than dec, a nice big bottle (I think at least 250mls, poss 300) & bound to be on offer at Boots/Superdrug et al/onoline cheapy chemists. I could swear it's from the same warehouse as Decleor. I think Dove is owned by P&G IIRC, & wouldn't be surprised if P & G were bought up by L'oreal (who own Dec).
I can't comment fully on sheet experience, I've used it in the morning, but generally the newer 'old school' (itms) gradual glows are less offensive in many ways. It develops nicely, quickly & isn't that deathly yellowy shade. Admittedly I've not used any tanners in ages, so dunno if it's changed formula. A very good beauty editor likes it (imo not one of these new bandwagoneers'.)
Re smell. 99.9% of faux tan prods use DHT as the ingredient that increases the melanin. If dht is there, the only way to lesson the smell is by masking it with a fragrance, hence the munchkin's Raspberry oil. He implies that RO is added for skin benefits, but with such a heavy raspberry pong, that's certainly from a fragrance.
The Dove isn't over* smelly, it's nice,& inoffensive, (*but I have a super nose & can whiff a fart in China, so I'm always going to detect the Dht) Obvs much cheaper than the luxury brands.
I will say that in terms of chemo patients finding a brand that suits their sensitive skin (as a result of treatment) or those with very difficult skin, if you have a specific product that works for you, don't change it.
