Aveeno Continuous Radiance


I really enjoy Aveeno's Continuous Radiance lotion. The formula combines natural soy with a subtle color enhancer to help even out skin tone and texture while gradually deepening skin's natural color, for visibly healthy and natural-looking skin that's not orange or streaky. The exclusive formula also helps smooth out skin's imperfections -- bringing out skin's natural radiance.

I've tried a lot of moisturizing "gradual" skin enhancers, but I've found that they are really smelly, greasy, or you have to wait too long to see the colour. I've used the lotion for 3 days now and noticed the colour is nice golden brown. I use it on my face too.

It's a wonderful moisturizer for morning and before bed. I am fair-skinned, but I tried this in "Medium" instead of fair. At $8.99 at Shoppers Drug Mart or any drugstore, I think that is fairly priced compared to similar products. The product just looks like any other Aveeno lotion and is not in any special "tanner" location.

The creamy white lotion goes on smoothly and blends quickly. The colour is quite good, similar to the other "daily radiance lotions" I've tried but maybe a tad more brown/realistic on me (instead of orange or yellow-toned like some). It seemed to develop rather quickly and without any obvious streaks or blotches. I've been using self-tanners over a decade now and I must say that the daily lotions are perfect for a slight tan without a lot of mistakes and hassle, and they are also good if you are just starting to try self-tanning.

Let me know what you think?
