This is the best sunless tanner on the market. As a fair complexion person, believe me when I say, that coppertone it the only one that has gotten the tan from a bottle down. There's no real odor, and the color is a nice brownish color, not orange at all. However, you need to apply it at least every 4-5 days to maintain the tan. As long as you make sure to take the time to spread the lotion in, it is impossible to get an uneven tan or tan lines.
My only complaint is that Coppertone used to have a sunless tanner w/ a bronzer in it, so that you could put it on 5 minutes before you went out and be tan, and then the bronzer would wash off in the shower while the general tan stayed on. But for some reason, they discontinued that product. So, now if you want to be tan when you got out, you have to give it several hours. I haven't quite figured how many hours it takes, but it's safe to say that if you put it on the night before, then you'll be tan when you wake up.
Oh and one last thing, don't freak out if you get the lotion on your clothes, cause I've done it plenty of times, and every single time it comes out w/in one wash.

I used this primarily on my legs and feet as my legs are slow to get a natural tan. While not a bright orange, the area it was applied to does have a slight orange cast, mostly noticed in natural sunlight or under florescent lights. The texture makes for easy even coverage if only a small amount is used. It dries quickly, again with using light coverage, making it easy to dress shortly after applying. I have not tried applying it to my face or anywhere other than my legs and, while not the perfect color, it does give my legs a fairly natural tan look.

    Comments about Coppertone Sunless Tanning Gradual Tan Moisturizing Lotion, 9 fl oz:

    I love this tanner. Previously I used the Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Moisturizer. It was diffficult to use, patchy, and faded quickly. So I went to the store and picked up this product. I used it one day right after the shower and again later that night. I haven't noticed any offensive odor and doesn't irritate my skin. It's so easy to apply since it's a lotion and does not look patchy. It gave me results the very next morning after I used it. I am so happy with it.

    Comments about Coppertone Sunless Tanning Gradual Tan Moisturizing Lotion, 9 fl oz:

    The lotion worked fine at first but faded unevenly and left me with splotches. There is an odor that appears after the lotion has dried but it isn't as strong as it is in some other self tanning lotions. I have pale skin and the tan definitely didn't look natural but it wasn't bright orange either. It was somewhere in between. Haven't had any issues with using this on my face.

    Comments about Coppertone Sunless Tanning Gradual Tan Moisturizing Lotion, 9 fl oz:

    I used to use the Jergen's tan lotion, but wanted to try this because it doesn't have parabens. It works just fine - creates a nice, soft tan very gradually. You have to apply daily for a few days in a row to notice the difference, but it is there and it looks great (very natural).

    I was really happy with this until I worked out. Even though it had been a little over a day since my last application, I saw a lot of tan rub-off onto my gym towel as soon as I got sweaty. Definitely embarrassing considering the towels were the white ones provided by the gym! Other than this minor snag, I've been pretty happy... just be careful not to wear light clothing if you're going to be sweating at all.

        This product creates a gradual even tan. Like any self tanning product you need to exfoliate before using for best results and then exfoliate after a couple of weeks of daily use and start over. Otherwise you end up looking splotchy.

          I use daily, but if not put on evenly you can sure tell it. Great for face & neck! Legs, not so much! Arms is okay but not great! Face is main part that it's great for!

            This is a great everyday moisturizer and gradual tanner for your legs/body. Does not have that chemical smell that other self tanners have. It actually smells good. It's also very forgiving,it's tough to make a mistake and end-up with those horrible streaks or clumps of tan color because you did not evenly apply. I highly recommend it!

            I used this just a few times before going on vacation and it produced a very light, natural tan. It was not dramatic or dark,but just enough to take away my winter white legs. I do not know how it will do with more frequent or prolonged application, but so far the results are superior in color and evenness to other brands used. Only complaint is I haven't found it locally.

              This is fantastic. A friend told me about it and having used everyone out there I was afraid to try it, She got it for me and I could not believe it. No orange, no streaking just a beautiful golden brown color. Makes your skin soft.......This is the one for me and so much cheaper than some others. Wish I would have tried this a long time ago. Fantastic *********
