I hate it. I've done it a handful of times. The application is good and doesn't come out streaky - however I can never put the stupid barrier cream stuff on my hands correctly and I always wind up with either white hands or "muppet"-orange hands. I hate when it starts to flake off, and beware if you have large pores - that stuff gets in there and looks awful! The smell isn't that horrible - not as bad os self-tanners that I've tried. But overall, for the price it's not worth it IMHO.
