IDIOT-Proof Fake Tan wanted - and I mean IDIOT-PROOF!

[Claricethecat45]

All,
I am due to go abroad and will be in quarantine for 2 weeks; I don't want to emerge peaky looking as am going straight to work ..
I want a good EASY and forgiving tan..many have i tried and end up with dark orange knees and ankles despite doing EVERYTHING i can to prevent, exfoliate - moisturise etc..I lean towards Sprays rather than Mousses as I can't reach my back! Sprays do often swivel to cover all parts...so what would you recommend? Im bog eyed reading reviews and they all have disadvantages I know - but there must be one that forgives slight overload on bony bits? I will have plenty of time to build it up over my 2 weeks in a hotel room :( Thank YOU

Skinny Tan coconut water or Nip + Fab water. Although both clear so depends if that would be an issue

@Livpool

Is the Nip+Fab Water a good colour? Just read reviews saying its a light gold, which is nice but I am quite a mid-dark complexion rather than an english rose...whiter than white legs tho but top half quite a bit darker..I can only see one 'shade'

Bondi Sands foam is brilliant. I'm naturally very pale but this works a treat, definitely no streaks.

Buy a mitt to go with it!

Think it would be smart to stick to gradual tanners.

Mix skinny tan with a squirt of nivea. No steaks ever!

Superdrug 10 minute tan, because you rinse off quickly you don’t get dark patches.

I’m very pale so came out a bit yellowy on me but if you’ve got a base then palmers gradual tan cocoa butter is good and I’d use the term gradual loosely because you’ll see colour after one application! Also got on great with bondi sands although I found it didn’t stick for long it did give me lovely colour with no streaks or dark patches

I only ever do my legs so may not be the best to advise, but a real game changer for me was a velvet mitt. The product goes on so much better.

For a quick fix I swear by Sally hansen airbrush legs.

St tropez or bondi sands are good.

Gradual tanning I love dove gradual tan. It doesn't streak but will take a few days to build so start the week before.

Hi OP - it isn't dark - so you might need a couple of layers. It isn't sticky so layering it is easy to do
