Tanning advice

I regularly use st tropez express and leave on 2-3 hours, sometimes use the in shower one as a top up when rinsing it off.
I’m going on a special holiday soon, and just thought is it better to do a 3 hour one or maybe leave on 1-2 hrs then do it again so 2 coats?
Also does everyones fake tan come off as soon as you step into the sea/pool?

Mine always comes off
I'd take the shower one with me to top up also an aftersun with self tan in it

I didn’t know you could get aftersun with tan in it

I wouldn't go to any extra bother as it always comes off in water anyway. Just carry on as normal while you're away.

Yes, I would carry on as normal.
But have you tried the Clarins drops? You mix with your face moisturiser , I just tried it and I love it!

I use st tropez mousse, it came off in the pool.

Justyou · 08/08/2018 20:05

Ooh no I’ve not tried the drops might have to have a look.
I love the mousse but am worried that I’m gonna be patchy a few days into the hol- do you re tan on holiday?

I use the mousse as it works on my fave. I have retanned on holiday although I am away for a fortnight and so I would have needed to anyway.

I have 't gone patchy, just faded quickly

Lancaster do one as well as Piz Buin
Also I have used a Garnier one before even Asda did one last year that was really cheap but haven't seen it this year
