Any good false tans for face too aswell as body because most clog my pores and cause spots or. Causes an orange line around my face and around my eyebrows it does stick or it goes patchy/streaky. I've tried all different tans and I've tried solait and at moritz face drops and they don't work either! Can you get a. Setting spray for tan as when I sweat it off during workouts and hot weather it looks tacky x

The Jamie Genevieve tan spray is great, antibacterial too to help avoid spots x

Is that a setting spray or a false tan? Xx

This always works for me, especially as the body ones tend to give me awful spots:

Il Makiage. It’s for face and body. It’s the best fake tan I’ve ever used. In fact, it’s the only one I’ve ever had any success with.

I use the jg utan stuff as well, it’s lovely and you can use it over makeup too it lasts ages too

Doggymummar · 01/08/2024 20:31

I also came to recommend the Utan by Jamie - it's all I use

I was listening to Jules Von Hep on a podcast with Caroline Hirons this week. He created Isle of Paradise as he was a celebrity spray tanner and wasn't happy with the products you could buy for home tanning. His products are based around your starting skin colour and aim to give a glow.

I use a rapid tan, you apply for an hour then rinse off in plain warm water. Any of them will do the principle for all of them is the same.

Garnier spray love it

BigPussyEnergy · 04/08/2024 07:44

I use a Dove one which gives a really natural tan and doesn’t smell funny. It’s quite gradual, building up over 2-3 days. I slather it on and don’t get any streaks or patches etc .

False tan on face

I’ve tried all sorts. Used to use the garnier spray, my current favourite is skinny tan drops buffed in with a brush. It’s a lovely colour and even too.

JodieR1 · 04/08/2024 19:55

Tan - luxe best ever. 2 drops in your moisturiser !

sillylittlethings · 04/08/2024 20:41

Isle of paradise dark drops. 3 in with an oil free moisturiser at night. Everything breaks me out but this!

Yes the pink one is for face. It's a spray but you just spray it once across your face and don't rub in. It works great.

The dove mousse is available in loads of places, I usually get it in Sainsbury's

Purpleandredandyellow · 04/08/2024 22:08

The st tropez purity spray one - it's the only one that does not break me out at all. I've tried every single one in the market!!

Purpleandredandyellow · 04/08/2024 22:10

Including all the "drops" ones! I think because it sits on the skin somehow instead of being absorbed (as much) into the pores. Anything else gives me awful cystic type spots.

Ovenon · 04/08/2024 22:15

Isle of Paradise here too
