Fake tan...help!

DD loves to fake tan but hasn't the budget or skill to do it with any degree of subtlety. She is happy with the colour (far too dark imo but she's bloody gorgeous so whatever!) but it tends to go patchy on her neck. Any recommendations for brands (currently using cheapie San Moritz £3 in Savers!) or ways to avaoid the neck patches? It looks very mottled.

I like the gradual tanning lotions. The Garnier one (for medium to deep tan) is my favourite, around £5.
The reason being that you build up the tan gradually so you don't get any patches or streaks.

I use a small amount rubbed in really well after a bath or shower most days. It does take practice to get it looking natural. A small amount of residue is all you need on your hands to blend up your neck.

Other problem areas like knees, feet and hands need moisturiser on first so it doesn't cling to dry patches.

You can buy tan remover, sometimes called Tan Eraser wipes which might help if she's prone to mistakes?
