This lotion is worth the money. You get really nice and dark. I even noticed some change in the first application. However I couldn't give it a full 5 stars because I found the smell a little too strong like perfume for my liking. A quick shower fixes that solution, but I feel self conscious that the smell is so strong when out afterwards in public and thats what people smell on me. Also make sure to wash your hands after since it does stain the hands if not washed afterwards. ( Minor staining). Can't go wrong with the price it does what it needs.
