false tans

[stacyefc]

i have stopped using the sunbeds and have now started using false tan however i havn't been doing it that good.

i've got st tropez and i've used it once on my face and it looked ok but am scared to do my legs.

i used garnier on my legs and they were really orange by my ankles.

i used rimmel wipes all over me and they were good.

i used avon false tan. the first time i done it ok but the second time my ankles were orange and i looked like i had a mostache lol but i done a very stupid thing and filed it and done my lips are all chapped. How stupid am i ay?

i have just bought the new johnsons one it is mosturiser and false tan in one and it is supposed to be good.

do any of yous have any tips on false tan?

[phils little sister]

if you are using the cream or the moouse, add a little bit of baby oil in with it it makes it spread much easier and dosent streak, i have the johnsons one its great :cheer:

[phils little sister]

also if you exfoliate before you put your tan on it goes on better, just make sure you do your Knee's, elbows, wrists, ankles

[stacyefc]

thanks for that

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Aren't they called Fake Tans :hmm:

[Dr. Tangliss]

I use St Tropez, and it's good, although expensive. However, the last time I applied it, I asked my husband to do it. NEVER again! It came out blochey (sp?)!

So a valuable tip, never get you partner to apply it!

I am using the Johnson's one and reckon its worth the fiver. It takes a few days to develop, but its not over the top and is even. I would recomend it.

[.:Kitz:.]

i just go in water and come out tanned. I find going into water gets me more tanned than sitting on the beach!! I couldn't use fake tan, i'd do it wrong and look like an orange!!

[emma_strange]

Always exfoliate abnd moisturise elbows, ankles, knees, etc!

[Abi]

make sure you wear gloves, so you dont get all marks on your hands! BIIIIG give away!

This is more of a beauty thread, so I'll move it to the beauty forum :D

[hayley]

Be careful when you put it on your arms as my friend had bright orange elbows for weeks!

[Gabby]

Before you tan always moisturise knees, ankles, elbows as this stops them from going really orange. I bought these wipes from Dorothy Perkins and they were only £1 so i thought BARGAIN, lol. They turned out to be quite good:D

[xsoftladybugx]

I hate it when people walk around all ORANGE!!

[Tori]

yeah... its really nasty looking, some of the people at my school look like that and its awful- they think bleached blonde hair and false tans look brilliant- they look awful!

[xsoftladybugx]

Yeh my cousins like that, mabye thats one of the reason why i HATE her!!

[Tori]

lol! we associate fake tand with chavs in our area- and thats a lot of people!!

[kat 4 alfie]

lol ! i only fake tan my legs but i cant do my knees cause there naturally darker .

[Jemma]

Never use the fake tan wipes, they are terrible - you can't see where you've already put the tan on and so you put more on and...*ahem* you end up with bright orange and white stripy legs... :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl :rotfl: Oh and if you're tanning your legs remember to do the tops of your feet as well if you're gonna wear open shoes!

[the_watts_rule]

I think fake tan looks good but it looks awfull when people missuse it.

[Skits]

i think the johnson's one is the best.

[the_watts_rule]

I've got a bottle of that. It's good.

[nicole28]

I don't use fake tan, I think you should go to really get a tan, not use cream! It is too fake!

[Jemma]

I got this moisturising tan stuff from Superdrug yesterday as it was on offer BOGOF! :D So I'm gonna start using it today and report back on how good it is lol.

Spray tans are fab but bit expensive. Give a very natural colour though!

[nicole28]

I have never used fake tans, they must work and must be quite good, but personally, I wouldn't use them!

In Argos, there is a self-tan spray in there. I recommond using fake tan anytime, it's better than risking skin cancer in sun beds.
