This makes my winter pale self a little less transparent. I've mainly used it on my face and chest, and it delivers. However, it takes about 1-1.5 days before you see the real difference, so you might not notice it if you apply it the night before you have something the next day.
It's not sticky in the same way that many other self-tanners are.
I haven't tested it on my whole body, but it gives a very nice spray that I think makes application on the whole body very easy.
