I don't know about this lotion.... but check the ingredients listing on the back. if it contains dihydroxyacetone then you should wait like 3 hours to shower so that the chemical has time to oxidize on your skin and give you that bronzed color.

I have used it and it is my mom's holy grail lotion. She recommends waiting 4 to 6 hours if at all possible, and I second it. It is a great lotion

I agree, when using DHA bronzers spread evenly and let the product stay on your skin for several hours.

yes most definately wait 3 to 4 hrs if u use a DHA lotion if your lotion just has cosmetic bronzers it doesn't matter if u shower right away cus that color would just come off when u showered anyway

I always wait 12 hours, that's just me. Most bronzers I use are a combination of dha and cosmetic bronzers.
I want to look as dark as possible as long as possible.

I wait at least 5 to 6 hours before showering. That's only because I tan on my lunch hour.

I always tan after work so I can leave it on for a long time.
