I have been buying Caribbean Tan products for a long time, and along with my first purchase, I bought this shimmer cream. It is very thick (to the point where it is sometimes difficult to get out of the bottle), but it gives a lovely shimmery finish. In the first few years of buying this product, I noticed that there were some inconsistencies in the colour- sometimes it would literally look darker in the bottle, and give a darker tint to the skin, and other times it gave almost no tint with just a golden shimmer. Recently, the colour seems to be more consistent though. I still use this product from time to time, but when I do, I make sure there is not much chance of me sweating because it will rub off on anything you touch, including your clothes.
If you plan to use this, make sure your skin is completely dry before applying, and just know that it might transfer onto your clothes. I will probably still buy this from time to time because it is affordable, but there are better shimmer creams out there.

For the user who is not comfortable with applying a full body self-tan. This product gives the skin a healthy glow, no strong product fragrance lingers. Best of all, once you hop into the shower the colour easily washes off evenly and not patchy as with self-tan.

I'm attending a wedding this weekend so I wanted a nice bronzing product for my legs. But not a self-tan, which I never really have good experiences with. I was actually looking for the Rimmel product that gives instant colour that you can wash off. But sadly I think it's either discontinued or the Pretoria shops just don't stock it. :( So I spotted an advert for this Caribbean Tan cream and for R49 thought why not give it a try. Unfortunately it doesn't even compare to the Rimmel one. I was really expecting a bit of colour from this and not just shimmer. But alas, all I really get is shimmer, and not even that much. I put lashings of this on and it still seems to give off barely any colour. The label says it gives skin a healthy, golden glow. Where is the golden glow? For the weekend I think I will wear this over a fake tan, just to add a slight shimmer to my legs. I'm a bit disappointed in this product as I have friends and family that adore the Caribbean Tan products. According to Cindy Nell, this is a bronzer and shimmer-effect cream in one "to make your skin look it's been photo shopped in real life!" Sorry Cindy, but that isn't the effect it's giving me. :(
