Fake Tan on blue/white legs

[cleowasmycat]

Hi,

My legs are v pale and I'm experimenting with fake tan. I find that even with shaving/epilating at least 24 hours prior I am still getting visible brown dots all over my legs. How do people get a smooth look?

Could you try bumping up your moisturising routine for a few days beforehand? Try to make sure your skin is really hydrated. I find when my skin is dry the follicles try to suck up more of the fake tan and I get the brown dots.

Are you exfoliating and moisturising before you’re applying the tan?

Don’t shave until after you’ve applied, if you can go 2/3 days not shaving before hand.

When you’re about to apply tan, shower 30 minutes before and run the cold shower to close your pores.

I don’t think your moisturising enough/using the wrong moisturiser. They dye attaches strongly to dry skin.
