Quick natural looking fake tan for pale person

Going on hols on Monday and feeling self conscious about my pale white skin. I never tan on holiday either as I need to slather myself in 50+ as I burn so easily.

I don't like the idea of doing a proper fake tan in case I look orange, but think I've left it too late to do the gradual more "natural" looking ones... any recommendations?

Thanks!

The best for my pale skin in Tan Luxe The gradual--looks amazing and natural. I swear by it.
Garnier gradual tan is quite good and cheaper

I’m so pale, I literally glow and have tried all of the tans over the years.

The best one is Dove gradual tanner though! I use it very sparingly the night before and wake up with a very natural tan. Plus it doesn’t smell either!

You can’t go wrong with it.

Vita liberata is great, well worth paying the extra. I'm Irish-pale skinned and it looks really natural.

Bondi Sands liver here, doesn't STREAK and very natural. But smelly though till you shower off the top colour

I've been using the garnier summer body one. After a few days I look like I've been abroad. However it has gone orange and patchy 😞

When I got married I had a spray tan and that looked really natural

Dd is ginger with blue eyes and very pale skin.
She uses Dove gradual tan that others have recommended. One use gives her that little bit of colour. Anything more wouldn't look right with her colouring.
