La roche posay: Autohelios (moisturising self-tanner)

For some reason unknown self-tanning products became totally unavailable in my local drugstores. I intended to buy some L'Oreal or Garnier stuff, like I usually do, but I had to resort to the only product available - La roche-posay Autohelios.

This is supposed to be a highly moisturising, non-streaky self-tanning lotion for sensitive skin.

So my comments are:

PROS:

- moisturises really well

- applies smoothly

- no weird smell

- the tan is buildable, you have control over the degree of tan you wish to have

CONS:

- fairly expensive, cost over £15 for 100ml

- my tan looks unnaturally yellow, though it's typical if your skin had pink undertones, but still I think it makes my legs look more yellow than when using other products

- it's not that non-streaky, it would apply easier if the lotion was tinted

THE BOTTOM LINE:

it's an ok kind of product, though I'm not gonna repurchase. For me this is far too expensive and too far from a holy grail product
