Golden Ceremony, Dark Secrets and Freak

The THREE lotions I swear by are:

Golden Ceremony by Designer Skin
Dark Secrets by Swedish Beauty
and
Freak by Supre (?)

I tan A LOT and have used a TON of different lotions - I'm also half Asian and crave a DARK tan, not orange (some bronzers turn me that way), no funky smell, and a reasonably good price.

I also plateau easily on my tan - where I won't get any darker.. The best thing I've found is switching around your lotions regularly.

Why I love each one:

GOLDEN CEREMONY: works magic!!! Smells VERY good, has silicone in it so it's ultra creamy smooth... the bronzers show up immediately.

DARK SECRETS: has clear bronzers along with body blush. This smell is my favorite of all lotions I've ever used! It adds the perfect "sheen" after your tan and you can very easily see the darkening results hours after your tan ;) The BOTTLE is also one of my favorites; the opening twists for easy access.

FREAK: cheap cheap cheap - but works like a more expensive lotion!!! I believe you can get a bottle on ebay for around 10 dollars! Great smell, amazing results, the only downside is the packaging, just a big open bottle, so be careful :)

I've read through some other peoples things; BLACK is great, but I think there is too much hype around it. Same for Smoke.

I DON'T recommend ever using "PINK"... it's gross, strange smell, orange results, and it's "mealy" after you put it on...
