Reviews

Beautiful tint, gorgeous product

"This gradual face tan is so easy to apply and delivers a beautiful glow. It's my favourite gradual tan product, it leaves a stunning natural tint which you can intensify if preferred by multiple applications, what a little tube of genius. I won't use another tanning product, 10/10 from me 😊"

Rafferty W. (5/5)

Sun-kissed glow

"What a wonderful product. Easily the best I have tried (and I have tried a lot) because it’s so easy to apply evenly as it doesn’t have a sticky texture. It has a lovely fragrance and a lot goes a long way. I use it in place of my morning serum, before moisturising and everyday my face has an even, subtle and sun-kissed glow."

Amanda A. (5/5)

Gradual tan is a fast favourite

"I’m quite pale so the gradual tan is great to give me the colour that works for my skin tone. I love the pump as other tans atay in the drawer but this is so easy when you come out of the shower- pump and go! No clothes transfer or on sheets and doesn’t have that weird smell!"

Lee O. (5/5)

A healthy face glow result in a skin care product

"Great products as Gatineau provide excellent skin care it’s a great moisturising lotion to use on your face providing you with a healthy natural glow. Wouldn’t want to use anything else."

Gaynor O. (5/5)

One of the very best

"I’ve tried loads of fake tan for your face and I can honestly say this is one of the very best! You really don’t need much and it absorbs really. The resulting tan is incredibly realistic. Bought a tiny tube and will deffo be buying g a full size one when it runs out."

Joanne R. (5/5)

Light/medium face golden glow too light

"I was sent 2 of the golden glow trial Sizes as I have used body glow gradual tan for a few years and love it . The light/medium face golden glow really didn’t make a difference. I have quite light skin so expected a change as in the body lotion . I used it 2 days running but could barely see a change . I haven’t yet used the medium / dark but will try that soon as I’ve heard from others that’s the better colour"

Emma S. (5/5)

Gradual Tan Face

"Lovely product. Smooth and easy to apply, natural colour. Definitely purchasing this brand again, I have tried many and this is the one I will keep."

Gillian W. (5/5)

Waste of money!

"Face serum gradual tan In both colours. Absolutely waste of time and money. Contacted customer service and they didn’t want to know and said they couldn’t refund because I had tried it????? Well I don’t know how I could have not tried it to find out it’s a completely waste of time? Really disappointed, please don’t waste your good money on this face stuff. Great products from other companies out there. I would have given 0 stars if it had let me!"

Yvonne A. (1/5)

Wonderful products!

"All of Gatineau products are exceptional quality. Texture, lightness and coverage. . it’s definitely worth investing into these products long term!"

Mrs G. (5/5)

Love it

"I tried the Gatineau Golden Glow Gradual Tan Face Serum for the first time. I love it, does exactly what it says, no streaks, just a beautiful colour, easy to apply over face and neck. My skin feels so soft for hours after applying. I also love that there's no patchy bits when you don't reapply, it just fades. It is a bit expensive but you know what you're getting and it works. I would definitely recommend and will purchase the larger tube next time. 5 stars from me 💜"
