Next on their recommended list was Clarins Self-Tanning Instant Gel which, unlike the Jergens moisturizer, “provides a quick, dark tan” that users said goes on smoothly and evenly. One drawback to gels is that take longer to dry than lotions (about 30 minutes or so), and both the Jergens Natural Glow and the Clarins Self-Tanning gel received mixed reviews for odor, some said it was pleasant or unnoticeable, while others said it was very obvious and unpleasant.
