Aussies have rated Dove as the top pick in Canstar Blue’s latest self-tanning product ratings, with five-star reviews for texture and consistency, packaging, scent, value for money and overall satisfaction.
Our review compares self-tanning product brands on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which self-tanning product they think is best!
Canstar Blue surveyed 850 Australians for their feedback on the self-tanning product brand(s) they have purchased from and used at home in the last six months.
The winning brand is the one that receives the highest overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.
Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.
