Ever feel like you look healthy and glowing on holiday , only for it to seem like your tan immediately disappears once you get home? Us too – but thanks to some stellar reviews from loyal customers, we think we've found a product that will keep you looking bronzed for longer. Shoppers on websites such as Amazon and Boots are praising Lancaster Golden Tan Maximiser After Sun Lotion as a summer essential that 'really works' and is worth the money. Enriched with skin-nourishing oils and butters, it not only helps to keep limbs hydrated but also contains a 'tan activator complex' that boosts melanin production to encourage a long-lasting, golden tan, with shoppers saying 'it really works'.

A 250ml tube usually costs £28 but you can currently find it in a 20% off sale on Amazon for £22.40 . READ MORE: ‘I’ve tried lots of sun creams and this is my favourite – I’ll be stocking up now it’s £10’ Lancaster Golden Tan Maximiser After Sun Lotion, £22.



40 from Amazon (usual price £28) And if you're shopping at Boots today – perhaps browsing this week's £10 Tuesday deals – you'll also find this Lancaster after sun priced at £22.40 on the website too . Lancaster says that its Tan Maximiser can help to 'prolong your tan up to one month', but shoppers are reporting even more impressive results.

"This cream definitely helps your tan to last, that’s 6 weeks since I came home from Spain and my arms and legs are still tanned," one Amazon buyer commented. Another agreed, writing, "I use the Factor 50 water sun protection and then after shower I use this golden maximising after sun lotion . My tan lasts for at least 5-6 weeks post holiday and my skin is amazingly soft and supple without any skin irritation.

Highly recommend this product." Lancaster Golden Tan Maximiser After Sun Lotion, £22.40 from Amazon (usual price £28) A third person acknowledged that, although it's not the cheapest body lotion, to them it's worth the price: "Despite balking at the price, it really is the best stuff I have ever used .

Love the smell, a little goes a long way. This does preserve my tan and a lovely, natural golden tan." Amid all the glowing reviews, however, one person disliked the texture, finding it "very sticky".

Still, with the vast majority of reviews five-star ones, this is one product to try this summer . Of course, obtaining a tan should never be put above staying safe in the sun, and beauty editor Laura Mulley never travels without her favourite high factor sun creams: Sun Bum Original Moisturizing Sun Cream Spray SPF 50 , now down to £10 as part of Boots' £10 Tuesday deals, and COOLA Tropical Coconut Spray SPF30 , currently £21.60.

If in doubt, the safest way to get a golden glow is from a bottle – Laura loves Bare By Vogue Self Tan, currently £17.79 . From Ryanair-approved cabin suitcases to overnight bags, premium luggage brand Antler has reduced some of its best-selling pieces.

In its summer sale, you can save up to 40% on high-quality cases ..
