My legs will NOT fake tan!

I’ve posted before under a different name about this and diligently tried every wise MN tip. Still I have orange ankles and knees and white calves.

I have tried:

  • major exfoliating and moisturising every night for a week ahead
  • not shaving (defeats object as legs then look yuck for a different reason!)
  • vaseline on ankles & knees
  • every bloody brand going including gradual tanners
  • using a mitt, a brush and hands with latex gloves
  • using leg make up instead - doesn’t work with my lifestyle and ends up coming off

should I give up on this? They do desperately need a bit of colour but this is getting very tedious and I’m running out of ideas!

Isle of Paradise drops in light work for me, in bog standard Superdrug vitamin e body lotion. I have tried and failed with numerous other methods. These products are cruelty free as well
