    I got the gradual tan trial too, and suppose it must be St Tropez as you receive full size tubes of St Tropez Body Polish & Tan Prolonging Moisturiser so that you can exfoliate and moisturise as recommended, as well as the gradual tan to test

    I only got a smallish tube and no polisher so mine must be a face tan. Very happy with it though

    Have applied it today so will let you know about St tropez.

    I got the dark body one so have gone easy as I'm very fair. Easy to apply. Not a great smell but will see what it's like after a few hours!

    Hi!

    I was a bit stingy with it as it was a dark tan they sent and I'm as fair as you like! Left it on for the eight hours and washed off guide colour and it's nice. Noticeable but not too dark. As its a gradual tan I'm to apply it again in a couple of days so we will see. Not a terrible smell, quite easy to apply but the mitt absorbs a lot of the tan which if I'd paid for it I would not be too pleased about. Didn't stain anything either. A good start.

    Bexster :)

    Going to try it today before I go to work. Hope it doesn't look too bad and puts off the customers
