I have just covered myself in fake tan (for the 1st time) without exfoliating...

[schneebly]

am I going to look like a plonker in the morning?

[Katsma]

Possibly a patchy orange one!

Top tip for the morning: Orange patches can be removed by rubbing with whitening toothpaste!

[madmarchhare]

oh dear

[LucyJones]

get in the shower quick

[Boco]

Get an old flannel - rub your knees, shins and wrists or you may look like your liver has stopped working.

[schneebly]

oh dear! Wine and fake tan dont mix!!!!

[schneebly]

after careful inspection this morning I am relatively streak free! I think it helps that it is a very natural colour and not too obvious. Phew!

What did you use?

[mumto3girls]

Dove? Johnsons?

[Cappuccino]

oh get that moisturiser stuff that builds up

far less of a shock

[schneebly]

it was tesco finest self tan spray

£2.99 at the moment - smells not bad too

[InternationalMouseOfMystery]

capp i found that gradual tan moisturiser got really blotchy over time (eg on arms)

which one do you use?

[plummymummy]

I have used almost every one going and always get orange patches or white patches. Even when I paid to have it applied it was patchy. I am very pale so I suppose that doesn't help.

[frascati]

Loreal nutrisummer gradual tanner everytime. It is fab!

[nappyaddict]

has anyone used piz buin, olay, garnier or boots soltan. they are the only every day moisturiser type ones i haven't tried yet but i wasn't successful with others despite exfoliating and using a mitt.

[sugarfree]

Frascati,is that the spray one?Think thats what I've been using every couple of days,and it's a bit patchy on me.Vey gradual effect though so not too noticeable.(I hope)

[nappyaddict]

did you exfoliate before?

[SilentTerror]

I have a rub over with dry exfoliating gloves every other day or so,seems to stop patchiness I think!
The best fake tan I have used is St Tropez mousse,the best gradual every day moisturiser one is either Nutrishimmer(l'oreal) or Nivea on me.

[sugarfree]

Always exfoliate.(even if I'm not using fake tan)I have shocking knees and elbows if I don't.

[nappyaddict]

have you tried using a mitt?

[Cappuccino]

International Mouse it's Dove

used Johnsons before but Dove far less streaky ime

[dollyk]

you can get a fake tan remover
