Any idea how long you can keep a can for and it still be ok? It doesn't say on the can! Think I bought the one I have at the end of last summer but nervous to use it just in case!

I've had mine for a lot lot longer than that and it's still fine Smile

FloatyCat · 25/05/2017 19:57

I've used a very very old one today, I don't think it goes off.

WeAreEternal · 25/05/2017 20:01

I use it every day, I buy it in bulk because it works out substantially cheaper.
I've still got two can left over from my last batch, well one and a half....

I've been using it for many years and I can confidently say that the cans keep for years.
Just make sure you give it a really good shake.

Amazing thank you ladies 😁

Oh I've seen this stuff everywhere and never used it, is it good?

CrispyBathTowel · 25/05/2017 20:31

It's more like a foundation for legs rather than a fake tan imo MrsDoyle. I use it and then spray Rimmel Instant Tan over the top love both together

Jmangel · 25/05/2017 20:38

Weareeternal, I am in awe! You use it every day - I am soooo lazy and currently still in skinny jeans and ankle boots even though it was 26 degrees today because I can't be arsed to fake tan/airbrush - must do better!!

MrsDoylesTeabags · 25/05/2017 20:41

I might give it a try, thanks for the tip

Ivory200 · 25/05/2017 20:54

My current one is at least five years old. Don't use it that often, obviously, and it's fine.

KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth · 25/05/2017 20:58

Can I ask how you apply this without painting your house with it?

CrispyBathTowel · 25/05/2017 21:05

Cock one leg on the side of the bath and spray very close to the leg Kiera and then rub in. If you spray at any significant distance it does end up everywhere. That's how I do it mess free anyway.

numbmum83 · 25/05/2017 21:09

Bodycare have it for half the price of Superdrug . I was comparing fake tan last week !

CremeDeSudo · 25/05/2017 21:12

I do it outside Wink

I've got the non spray one which you rub in like a lotion. Still has the same air brush effect as the spray. Oh - and I've had it for 2 years.

CremeDeSudo · 27/05/2017 19:55

Pleased to confirm this stuff lasts ages! Still good Smile

Had forgotten about this stuff. Thanks for reminder

IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday · 27/05/2017 23:14

What happens if it rainsGrin. I've always wanted to have a go but worried about it washing off.

CremeDeSudo · 28/05/2017 07:54

It's waterproof. You can only get it of by washing it off in the shower Grin

Does it rub off on to clothing?

JustGettingStarted · 28/05/2017 08:04

Does it rub off on bedsheets, say during sex? Blush

Crispsheets · 28/05/2017 08:09

It's still too orange for me. A pity as i like the effect.

CremeDeSudo · 28/05/2017 08:15

Once it's dry nope. I always panic a little bit when I first apply it as it looks too dark/orange for me (am fairly pale) but once it's dried it's fine. Love the stuff.

IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday · 28/05/2017 09:38

Thanks Creme, I will get some.

creamcheeseandlox · 28/05/2017 17:42

I'm light olive skinned. What shade do I need?

TheMightyMing · 28/05/2017 17:55

Cream cheese I'm the same colour as you, I've never been that impressed, light is too light, medium is mega orange, I think it's the wrong tone for olivey skins. Aldi have one in store this week for a fiver, I'm thinking about trying that to see if it's different.
