This is the fascinating life of femme fatale Alice de Janz , a book that may well have solved the mystery of Lord Erroll's killing (San Francisco Chronicle)--the story at the center of James Fox's White Mischief.

A glamorous American multimillionairess, Alice de Janz scandalized 1920s Paris when she left her aristocratic French husband for an English lover--whom she later tried to kill in a failed murder-suicide. Abandoning Paris for the moneyed British colonial society known as Kenya's Happy Valley, she became the lover of womanizer Joss Hay, Lord Erroll. In 1941, Erroll was shot in his car on an isolated road. The crime remained unsolved.

Paul Spicer, whose mother was a confidante of Alice's, uses personal letters and research to piece together what really happened that fateful evening. He brings to life an era of unimaginable wealth and indulgence, where jealousy and hidden passions brewed. At the heart of The Temptress is Alice, whose seductive charms no man could resist, and whose unfulfilled quest for love ended in her own suicide at age forty-two.

A good starter kit
A really good starter kit, the tan isn’t orangey and applies pretty easily. It doesn’t get super dark. The lotion is good to make the tan last longer but wash your hands really well or they’ll have dark splotches. The spray isn’t amazing and can look streaky

Works good
Color: Medium Glow
It smells like tropical scent after putting it on. The smell lingers for about an hour or two. It is not bad though, I like it- reminds me of summer scent. Instant tan works very quick. I am very fair I see no sun so, I put two layers on yesterday and two layers on today. I am significantly tanner. I only use my hands to spread it in, it would work better with less streaks if using a tool to help spread the product evenly. It leaves my skin feeling very smooth and hydrated and I like the color and scent, I like how it has hydrolaunic acid and vitamin c. Works good and stays on. I was able to convince my husband it was good to have because of the hydrolaunic acid and the vitamin c, I said it's a 3-in-1! I also bought this during black Friday week so, got it for a good price.

Quick drying, non sticky lotion!
Color: Medium Glow
Great even color and dries immediately. This formula is not sticky at all. The color may not be as dark as the gel or foam, but is very natural.

Unbeatable Value for the Price!!
I’m so impressed with the packaging of this kit! It came with the cutest little bag, perfect for the pool or beach. The product sizes are much larger than I expected, and the mitt is excellent quality. I haven’t tried everything yet, but I’m really excited to. For the price, this kit is a fantastic value considering how much you get! One small note: the “Gimme the Glow Down” spray could’ve been filled a bit more (see photo). I did test a quick spritz on my face, it felt refreshing, but did have that classic self-tanner scent and left a slight sticky residue. Nothing major, though. I’ll update once I see the full results on other products! UPDATE: I LOVE THESE PRODUCTS! The tan is so even and gives a great glow to my skin. I wash my face twice a day so I use the glow down spray to refresh the tan. I used this self tanner for my engagement photos and it looked like I just came from the beach! (See last photo)

Dark coloring but very streaky and stains easily.
Color: Medium Glow
While it does darken the skin one has to be VERY careful when putting it on. It does stain and it is very streaky and it does stink after wearing it a while so the smell is rather yucky and they advertise that it is not. I had streaks everywhere and unevenness so I ended up ordering a glove to apply it with hoping that will do a better job. I have not tried it yet but am probably going to return one of the 2 bottles I received and hope for a partial refund.
