Which fake tan do you use. How do you avoid orange ankles/wrists and white hands? Thanks!

St tropez in shower tan, it's fab
Failing that clarins glow lotion, you add it to your usual moisturiser, I'm a big fan!

Fake bake best on my skin

Xen-tan Transform (its one you use daily). Never had any orangey bits with this stuff Smile

Vita Liberata. Very realistic/not orangey. And very forgiving so no streaks.

Cocoa brown 1 hour tan. Can be left for 3 hours before showering for a deeper tan. Left me no streaks or orange/ white marks... even my husband did it for me once and had no problems. Not sticky didn't stains sheets or clothes and didn't smell to bad either. Just make sure you exfoliate for a few days beforehand.

And moisturise any dry areas before putting tan on. Stops orange patches.

Xen-tac, eco-tan or St.Moritz. I do a good exfoliate the day before and let my skin settle for a day before putting tan on. Eco-tan is my favourite for an even, streak free tan, just have to make sure I moisturise as it can dry skin out with repeated use.

I endorse the cocoa brown suggestion. St Moriz in second place.

Cocoa Brown 1 hr mousse. Used it last night and had forgotten how fab it was. No smell, dries instantly so you can get dressed straight away, gives a lovely natural colour and no streaks.

I like the St Tropez dry oil one. I use a mitt to apply it and even I can manage to get it on without streaks and missing bits.
