hey xxblondebabexx your fake shouldnt turn orange, did you exfoliate your skin removing all dead skin beforehand?

my DYI at home, I scrub scrub til im almost red , I put a light moisturise all over then I use a spray to apply the tanning lotion on me…for difficult to reach spots I ask my friends or my ex to help me..

once the tan is applied I dont leave the house for 8 hours this allows the tan to settle…for knees and elbows areas I only spray it once.

Answer #2

both tanning beds and the sun directly cause skin cancer and prematurely age your skin and face, just like sun exposure does as well as numerous other things the only safe tan is a FAKE tan one form a bottle, spay on, wipe, cream or can be smart and get a fake tan

Answer #4

ouch…

ever consider using a tanning lotion that contains SPF 15 or SFP 30+
sunscreen ??…that way you can protect yourself from the sun and have a magnificent bronze glow without frying your poor skin…

fake tan last for a few months and you can reapply the fake tanning lotion regularly.

Answer #5

You have very sensative skin that’s probably why. Try not to get yourself tanned as much be happy how you look atm
