Fake tanning is a skill that can take time to perfect. For best results, start with a pre-tan prep. This will help you achieve the most natural fake tan. Celebrity tanner James Read suggests you exfoliate and wax 24 hours beforehand and avoid facials and massages 48 hours before you tan. Use wipes to remove old tan not always visible to the naked eye.Use an electric shaver when shaving your legs after tanning. This will remove the top layer of your hair and not your self tan. Once you are satisfied with the results, choose between air drying or tumble drying your bedding. For air drying, hang the bedding outside or in a well-ventilated area, preferably under direct sunlight. This method helps remove any lingering odours and lets the fabric breathe, ensuring a fresh scent for your bedding. Self-tanning done badly can be less forgiving on those with light skin tones. As such, it can be a good idea to go for a gradual self-tan lotion so you can monitor the level of colour and build your tan up over time. Other fake tan tips for pale skin include buying a self-tan shade to suit your skin tone – it’s less likely to scream ‘it’s fake’! Lastly, bear in mind the colours of your bedding. If the stain is on a white or light-coloured sheet, you may need to take extra care to avoid discolouration while cleaning. For dark-coloured bedding, some staining may remain visible after cleaning, depending on the fake tan's colour and depth. Next, consider the age and size of the stain. Fresh stains are typically easier to remove than ones that have set into the fabric for a prolonged period. Larger stains may require pre-treating before washing to break down the tanning agents, while smaller ones may come out with a simple wash.

While some might require mild pre-treatment, others need more intensive cleaning methods to get the desired results. Key Takeaways I'm typically quite scared of facial tan. I've just had too many bad experiences with patching (particularly around the hairline). This stuff, however, is one of the few products I know I can rely on. I have blonde streaks in my hair that frame my face, and I've used so many tans before that turn my icy blonde brassy but this stuff doesn't seem to. I just mist it over my face and buff it into my hairline and hard-to-reach places with a clean foundation brush. It delivers the most healthy-looking glow without a hint of orange.
