Fake Bake Month L'Oreal Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer ...

**L'Oreal Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer** was another popular reader request for Fake Bake Month, and I was embarrassed to admit I hadn't tried it yet! I picked up a tube at CVS and got to work.

Overall, Sublime Glow has got to be one of the best gradual tanners on the market. It has a terrific texture that feels like a good body lotion instead of a sticky self tanner that never dries. It has the lightest touch of very fine shimmer; just enough to make you "glow" like the women in the advertisements. And it smells like tea. I love it!

I tried Sublime Glow in Medium because I prefer my "gradual" tans to develop a little faster. I'm impatient! And, I had lots of tanners to review for this month, so I had to get things moving along quicker. After only one day of use, Sublime Glow evened out the fading/peeling spots from my previous tan (**Bare Escentuals Faux Tan**), leaving a light, even layer of "fresh" tan. The wear-and-tear on my wrists, inner elbows, and neck was completely gone.

After a couple more days, the color deepened but never took on an orange cast - a problem I've had with some of the more potent gradual tanners similar to this one. In fact, the longer-term results were so good that the color rivals that of "greats" like St. Tropez. I am thoroughly impressed.

And that shimmer? Is GORGEOUS. Especially well-suited for a night out, since it's more of a subtle glow than obvious shimmer. I'm ready to throw out all those overhyped shimmer lotions (they're always too glittery anyway), use this instead, and get the tanning benefits to boot.
