    Default FAKE TAN

    Do any of you use fake tan ?

    My daughter Gem asked me to ask you all

    She wants to use it on her legs and is wondering if you use it then which is the best brand to buy

    Any suggestions or tips please ?

    Thanks

    I have used many Angel and never managed to get it right.

    I always get orange bits no matter what I do.

    so I will be interested to see what everyone else has to say.

    The last time we used it was 2 days before my daughters wedding

    One of the worst mistakes of my life

    Gem and Nic looked awful - it was all over my hands and we couldnt get it off and my other daughter Clare was having a fit she was the bride

    We did manage to scrub and scrub and get most of it off but never again ha

    I think thats why Gem is going for the legs this time if it does not work she can cover up ha

    ive tried a few of the mosturiser ones, like dove and johnsons, they smell lovely when you put them on but when you get up the next morn they stink and so does all your bedding!

    i don't bother now and am happy to be white but if i was going to have one i think i would have a spray tan done as the ones you do yourself always look streaky!

    I had a st. tropez spray tan about 3 weeks ago, i went a really good colour and it lasted about a week. I got a good price on it cus 5 of us went at the same time. We paid £15 each for it when is should normally be about £25.

    my step daughter gets a spray tan done professionally - all over for £12 so its as cheap as a good brand fake tan that you do yourself. it looks nice and subtle as well.
    Blessed Be!

    I think you need LOADS of practice to do a good fake tan. I have always sworn by St Tropez but make sure you use gloves to apply it and put a dollop of moisturiser over any dry patches such as knees. I have had a few professional spray tans done and although the St Tropez ones are good the best I've ever had was Fantasy Tan. Don't like standing there in my paper knickers though

    ive been using one by garnier, a gradual self tan moisturizer. like someone said above, it smells ok going on, but after about an hour it stinks! The tan builds over a few days, i'm quite pleased with it and will use again. i've got the one for fair skin as i am so very pale.

    I use Garnier summer body, the art of it is don't put too much on at once, use every other day, put too much on that:'s when you go patchy and yellow
