Awful smell!
It seems like this gel delivers the results it promises: it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave streaks. But the smell just makes me gag! It has a strong smell of a rusty metal. One might think that they pulverized a piece of old rusty pipe and added for the color :)
Pros: easy to apply, practical, quick fix

tan all year long!
I love this product. I use it several times a week, and I'm able to keep a good color year round. It does NOT make you orange or streaky at all. I buy it 3 bottles at a time!
Pros: must-have, easy to apply, natural, gives a radiant colour

Shimmering Gel - Face and Body
I've been using the 3 in 1 Shimmering Gel Face and Body for a very long time and love it. Now that it is discontinued I tried the new product Shimmering Gel Face and Body for the first time. It works just as great. I get a nice golden brown color just like with the other one. I think the new one dries faster than the old one. It is easy to apply. The color looks very natural and I always get compliments on my tan. I would highly recommend this product.

Not nearly as good as the Bronze Nature
I had high hopes for this tanner when I first bought it. But it didn't deliver: it leaves streaks, it doesn't get absorbed into the skin fast, the color rubs off easily, even after a day or two of drying on the skin (I think the drier it gets the more it rubs off!) I have ruined clothing because of it (thank god that at least it washes off). The color is way too orange. I think Yves Rocher should discontinue this one and keep putting out the 3-in-1 Bronze Nature shimmer self tanner.
Pros: no pros all cons
