my body is really tanned; my face is really white. this is because i'm paranoid about the sun and ageing...i read somewhere that if people didn't go in the sun, there would be no market for facelifts...so, i always wear factor 30+ on my face. but i let my body go brown. DH thinks i look a bit daft and I agree with him. So what do i do to make my face match my body? (other than fry it in the sun?) Can anyone recommend a product? tinted moisturiser?

I would say put factor 30 on your body too as skin cancer is more of a worry than wrinkles!

Do you wear protection on the rest of you?

and Olay sunless tanner for the face is good.

i do use suncream on the rest of me, especially abroad, but do like to get a bit of a tan...when i say my body is really tanned, i'm exaggerating. not least cos i have no time for sunbathing...i have a healthy glow from being outside in sports gear, rather than leathery bronzed look from lying around in a bikini..thanks for the suggestion phantom

or rather i'd like to think i have a healthy glow....not flattering myself!

If you wear make up, you could use a darker shade foundation?

i look a bit like this. i do look rather odd naked (hey not just the tan!) but dressed it is ok. maybe you are overthinking this.
