Spray Tan & Swimming

Hello!!

I'm going away for 3 days on holiday, but we will be going in the pool/sea.

Has anyone had a spray tan before a holiday? I know they go patchy in chlorine but I'm wondering if 3 days would be OK or not? I think gradual tanner would be best but I'm Awful at it,it always goes so streaky!

Any advice please :)

And no I won't go pale...:)

Last holls i got a beautiful spray tan done 2 days before i went away.

First day on holiday we went to the sandy beach and i went for a dip or two in the sea and that night the only tanned bit i had left was from the chin up 🙄

So ... my advice is to find a self tan you like and take it with you and be prepared to keep it topped up!

StTropez face spray is really good and you can spritz your shoulders, upper arms and the top of your back yourself.
For my legs i use a dead cheap one called Fake it Don't Bake it. Goes on white like a normal moisturiser and tan develops over 3/4 hours, same as the face spray.

Thank you so much for your reply. Not good for you, but it's good to know as when I google it, all the spray tan company's just say you can still swim... it will just fade quickly....they don't say how quickly haha!! Will look at those tanners thankyou xx
