If you don't have dry skin, then use this product sparingly to avoid the greasy feeling. I have somewhat dry skin and I've never found this to feel too greasy. I get a very natural tan, though it seems to fade a bit unevenly. I love that it has sunscreen, and perhaps it's this ingredient that causes others to describe it greasy?? At least you've saved a step and protected your skin!! This is also the first product I've used that doesn't have that awful self-tanner smell!!

I have to agree with other users who said it goes on very wet and takes a long time to dry. That said, I still think it gives a very even tan, and I do not have any issues with the odor. (I've found that tanning products work and smell differently on different people, so you'll never know till you try one exactly how it is going to work for you.)

For me, the big plus with this tanner is the SPF15 sunblock. Because of the sunscreen, I like to use this stuff when I'm going to be out in the sun, at the beach or pool. I can still tan while being completely protected from the sun; it's the best of both worlds.

The rest of the time, I rely on the L'oreal quick-dry tanner, which does a great job for me.

Comments about L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Lotion SPF 15, Medium Natural, 5 fl oz:

This is by far the best sunless tanner in the "drugstore price range". I almost switched over to the L'Oreal gellee because I, too, found that it took FOREVER for this product to dry.....that is, until I read the reviews and suggestions that if it takes a while to dry too much product is being used. I used just enough to spread it evenly (was nervous it wasn't enough the first time) but it dried in no time and the color developed nicely.
I find it's best to shower/scrub and apply it before bed to wake up with a nice tan.

    This product works well. It provides a natural looking "tan", while also giving sun protection to keep skin young and healthy. The fragrance is more pleasant than most self-tanners.

      Seriously, this stuff works, I put it on and in less then 24 hours, I went from white to bronze goddess, I'm not orange and I don't look like I have sunless tanner on. That's the most important part, you need something that makes you look natural, and this product is it. Right now, I am looking at my tan skin, amazed how great it works, I mean I am blindingly white, and I look like I've been tanning everyday since spring started. Buy this you will love it!

        Used this for years. Love that it has UV protection. I like to use self tanners before going in the sun. This way you have the UV protection as well as the self tanner all in one!

            Growing up in Orange County, I spent a lot of time at the beach working on my tan. But now that I'm older (and wiser), I know the harmful effects of the sun. So I finally turned to a sunless version of tanning. I love the color (and so does my boyfriend). I apply it every few days to keep a consistent color. It went on easy, but I noticed that it is fading unevenly in some places and it does have a slight chemical smell. It is not greasy at all. You just have to use a little bit because it's a creamy type lotion. I totally forgot that it's SPF 15, so that's a bonus, too.

            I found this very drying for my skin which usually isn't dry. Also, as it faded, it left very small splotches and looked unnatural. The color overall wasn't too bad, but even after exfoliating, moisturizing, and using spare amounts, I still had trouble with it going on quite uneven around my knees and ankles. Using latex gloves to apply did help it go on smoothly and evenly everywhere else and helped avoid stained hands. I wouldn't buy it again.
