I caved...

I was tempted, so tempted by promises of golden skin and plentiful moisturisation. But what sold me was the "improved fragrance" claim; no biscuit smell!!!!

Yes readers, I bought Johnson's Holiday Skin.



And now I stink. Ugh.


Have to say though, the colour is not bad.


I am just so sick of being pasty white and pink!!!!! And even though I abhor fake tan, I caved.

*sigh*

I tried it, and even the darker skin one looks completely different to how my skin goes after an hour or so in the sun. Better than the Australian hypoozonaemia though....
If they could only make a version with Vitamin D in it, especially for medical students.

Why- does it smell like biscuits?

There's a soap (Fa) with yoghurt and it smells really nice...

Either that or I am waaaay too hungry when I'm washing my hands.

Ah bless you Ms-Ellisa; you obviously live in a country where you don't have to get sun out of a bottle!

The chemical in it that turns your skin brown has a very distinct smell when it reacts. Kinda malty/biscuity. Pretty gross. The stink puts many a person off.

Oh no dear Lala- I wish- I live in a country were people are forced to use this stuff in April- May because they are too EMBARASSED to walk out on the beach all milky or look like they've been working too hard and not sun bathing yet.

I however have refused to cave and therefore am receiving various comments on my pale skin till mid July.

Everytime...

Every-year...

*cool huh?! You can't escape the problem here in sunny Greece either, right?!*
