When Applying Fake Tan, I Always End Up With Streaks. What Am I Doing Wrong?

Fake tan can be a nightmare and it really does require some experimentation and patience! All products vary so you should start by purchasing a decent brand such as 'St Tropez'. Cheaper brands are not always that great even if you do everything right. The St Tropez tan is used by thousands of people around the world and it is generally good quality. They also have a video available to purchase which shows you exactly how to put the tan on! It is expensive but worth it if you want a streak free tan.

If you cannot afford an expensive fake tan, there are some general rules which can help you towards your goal of becoming streak free. For example, shaving the night before or even the same morning, moisturising and generally preparing your legs and body for the tan, will help to give a smooth application and an even looking tan. Trying not to go over the same place too often is also a good tip.

If you are worried in any way about your tan, there are some products you can buy which will remove the tan within a few hours after you have put it on. This helps if you make a really bad mistake! Overall you just need to experiment, don't rush it and prepare your body first.
