Tried the Aviva stuff last year. The indicator colour is very shiny and to test it I tanned a male who was not very happy with the sparkly result LOL. We were testing alot of other solutions at the time so it might just have been a quirk, but we found the solution was very drying on the skin, despite being later based. Other point to note is that they only had 8/10/12% DHA which was too high for the European market - I am now using a range that starts at 5% and that is more appropriate.

I m french ... have you any names of lotion manufacturers to propose me...
No problem for 10/12 % DHA... but for a color which still many days... it is difficult to find the adequate colour for many days ...
Any suggestions will be welcome...

A good solution should last 5-7 days. Skin has to be prepped properly. Afterwards a tan extender should be used. If all is done right you could stretch to 10 days, but no solution will give more than 5-7.
