I’m super pale. I’ve heard great things about this product but I’m a bit hesitant to try it - will I look like an oompah loompah?

Obvs you can’t promise me that I won’t but I’d love to hear your experiences.

My skin is the colour of a sheet of A4 with a few broken capillaries, bruises and varicose veins for variation Grin

I'm very fair and occasionally use it. I'm also very bad at applying fake tan and I find it quite easy. It dries quite quickly so you need to be rapid at rubbing it in once you've sprayed it on and do smallish areas at a time. I'd try it out when you aren't going anywhere to practice as it washes off in the shower

I'm very pale too, I love it. Can't really go wrong with it and has good staying power. Do it!

It's brilliant. It's not anything like fake tan tho. It's leg makeup really. So, I wear gradual tanner on my legs, to take the awful whiteness away, and Sally Hansen makes them look better, hides any blemishes etc

I use the spray, be really careful as it coats the area around you too - so use in bathroom & wipe area quickly after.

It will get on your clothes (like makeup) but washes out fine.

I am super pale and even the lightest one looks weird on me, like prosthetic leg! Probably because I am quite sallow.I swear by skinny tan Tan and tone oil.

If you have dry skin it is best to moisturise first because, as PP said, it does dry quick. Or you could mix it with a little moisturiser for easier application.

I really love it, as do my pale and pasty legs. And it lasts all day. I've even paddled in the sea to my knees and its not rubbed off.

It's a lot easier and quicker than fake tan. I've used it for one off occasions sometimes.

I found the spray easier to blend than the cream.

I don't like the spray it goes everywhere. I spray into my hand so I can control it
Last year I got a cheap £3 version from superdrug which I prefer
