Written by the company

DolceLove is a tanning drops brand built for people who want a real, natural-looking glow without sunbeds, streaks, or fake tan messing up their bedsheets. Our drinkable Tan Drops work from within using carefully chosen ingredients that support your skin's natural tanning process gradually over time, no harsh chemicals and no melanotan involved. We're not going to pretend we got everything right from day one because we didn't. Over the past 6+ months we've put a lot of work into improving every part of the brand based on honest feedback from our customers. The formula has been completely reworked with a stronger dosage and the ingredients we knew were missing, so it actually delivers results without needing sun exposure to back it up. We've also launched new flavours that genuinely taste good, strawberry, peach mango and our reformulated watermelon are the current line up. One of the biggest lessons we learned is that real results take time. After running surveys with our own customers, we found that visible changes start showing up around the 1 to 1.5 month mark, with the best results around 3 to 4 months. We've updated our entire website to reflect this honestly because the last thing we want is to mislead anyone with unrealistic timelines. On the support side, we've grown our team and made sure every email is replied to within 24 hours by an actual human. Our only active support email is support@dolcelove.co We ship worldwide and we're still learning, still improving, still listening. If you've been burned by the tanning drop space before, we get it, that's exactly why we're trying to do things differently.

These taste lovely & they worked for me

These taste lovely. I was a bit unsure of what they would do, but they do work. I wear factor 50 in the sun and hardly tan. I already tried these for 2 months and I could tell the difference. Just bought another 2 months supply The strawberry flavour is a nice addition to the watermelon flavour.

Impressed so far

First delivery seemed to take ages to arrive but second was much faster. Also impressed that I received an email asking if I wanted to continue with the subscription before it was despatched. I've only just started using the drops and the taste is fine, I am very fair skinned and can see a slight change in skin tone but I am only using 3 or 4 drops as I want to build it up gradually. So far, very impressed!

I was already pretty skeptical about…

I was already pretty skeptical about ordering these tanning drops again.

I’ve tried a few tanning drops I kept seeing on Facebook, and none of them did much.

Either the taste was horrible or there was basically no difference in my skin tone, so I gave up on the whole idea.

I ordered DolceLove without big expectations, mostly because I liked how it looked, and I decided to give it one last try.

The first thing that surprised me was the taste. It actually tastes delicious and is easy to drink, not that weird chemical or bitter taste I had with other brands.

I’ve been using it for a few weeks now, and I can finally see a difference. Thank you!

Gift for my Girlfriend

Got the bundle for my girlfriend as a small surprise and she ended up loving it way more than I expected. She was always complaining about being too pale and hating self-tanners, so I thought l'd give these drops a try.

Hey, we genuinely sorry to hear this and thanks for taking the time to leave feedback.

We've actually taken all the feedback from customers like yourself really seriously over the past months and have been working hard behind the scenes to improve, our formula has been reworked with a stronger dosage and we've also added new flavours that taste a lot better than before.

As a newer brand we know we've made mistakes along the way and we're not going to pretend otherwise, all we can do is keep improving and try to make it right.

Sorry again for the bad experience.

Hey, we are really sorry to hear this and thanks for the honest feedback.

We've heard similar from our customers for months n months last year!

Which is exactly why we've spent time reworking our formula with a stronger dosage and new flavours that actually taste good.

The results from the new batch have been a lot more consistent.

We know being a younger brand means we don't always get it right first time and we're not going to make excuses for that.

We are sorry again for letting you down.

Hey, really sorry to hear about your experience and thanks for taking the time to leave feedback.

We've actually learned a lot from customers like yourself over the past months. Based on a few surveys we've done, we realised the product takes way more time to show real results than we were initially saying.

The best results we see are usually after 3 to 4 months and it really does vary from person to person, everyone's body is different and tans at a different pace.

Worth mentioning that our tan drops don't contain any melanotan or harsh chemicals that force your skin to tan, which is exactly why consistency and time matter so much with our product. It works gradually from within and not overnight like some others claim.

We've also updated our website recently with a more realistic timeline because the last thing we want is to mislead people, that's not the kind of brand we want to build.

Sorry again for letting you down.

Hey, really sorry to hear this and thanks for the feedback, it actually helps us improve.

Being honest with you, our previous formula had a lower dosage and was missing some key ingredients that properly support the skin to tan from within without sun exposure.

The old formula worked well if you were getting some sun alongside it, it would speed things up nicely, but for people relying on it with no sun at all it just wasn't strong enough on its own.

That's on us.

We've since reworked everything, the dosage is much higher now and we added the ingredients that were missing to make it actually work without needing sun to back it up.

The other issue was the timeline we were promising, it wasn't realistic. After running a survey with our previous customers over a few months, we found the real sweet spot for visible results is around 3 to 4 months, with skin starting to change colour around the 1 to 1.5 month mark.

So a lot of people who quit after a few weeks were actually on the right track and just didn't know it.

Sorry again for the experience.
