It's bad enough having holiday blues, but when your tan starts to fade - even worse. I have recently returned from 6 months away in Asia. Over this period I had built up an even bronzed tan. Sadly I came home in winter and my tan didn't stick around for long :-(
I think most people can feel washed out and pale in winter months. Having a healthy glow makes me feel so much better. I don't agree with sun beds as I used them quite a lot years ago and developed skin pigmentation. There are a number of risks associated with sun beds; Premature aging, pigmentation, skin cancer and problems with the eyes from UV rays. These are just a few risks.
In the past I have tried all sorts of tanning cosmetics, creams, gels, mousses, wipes and sprays. Most of the time I have ended up looking like I've been tangoed! Not a cool look! Then there is the issue of orange hands from rubbing in self tan cream. Also not a good look... especially when you have a job interview and have to shake hands with the potential employer (notice I said potential employer - I blame the fact I didn't get the job on my lovely orange hands!) Worse than the orange hands, I have also ended up with streaky bacon looking legs! This is probably due to not exfoliating before applying tan or not being rubbed in properly. It's actually quite a lot of effort to achieve a 'natural' looking tan with self tanning products.
The great thing about this product, is that it's the closest you'll get to a professional spray tan. No streaks and no orange hands! It will also dry instantly, so no waiting around before you get dressed. Some creams and sprays are oil based and can leave your skin feeling slimy or sticky. Not Fake Bake, this product will dry on your skin without any residue. Fake Bake is non - comedogenic so it won't clog your pores either. As an extra bonus, Fake Bake also smells fab too!
The tan lasted me about 5-6 days, then started to go slightly patchy. I find that if you re-apply the spray you will get an even result again, but if I re-apply again after that it will be patchy. I usually exfoliate and wait a couple of days before applying again.
You can buy this spray from Debenhams, leading chemists, ebay and major department stores. It will cost you under £30, my advice is to shop around as the price does vary from £21-£30.
Simple! Fake Bake Instant Self Tanning Spray comes in a gold colour aerosol can of 207ml (7 fl.oz). It is great for those hard to reach areas, giving you an even tan. The spray is a light mist that covers your body, penetrating the skin to give you an even flawless tan.
-Shake gently before each use. -Hold 12" to 14" from your skin and spray in long even strokes. -Two light coats are better than one heavy application. -Allow to dry between applications. -Apply to clean moisturised skin (use oil free moisturiser) -To tan your face, spray on sponge and apply.
There's a whole range of Fake Bake tanning products available. Lots of different shades, lotions, face, body, legs etc. I have tried a few and I can fully recommend the self tanning spray as it gives best all round results- I have said goodbye to the oompa loompa look!
Apparently celebrities including Madonna and Britney Spears swear by this amazing spray! I can certainly see why.
