looking for a "fake tan" product for a "fake tan" virgin

[YouMightKnowMe]

Title says it all really.

Want something to give my legs a glow in teh absence of sun. Never done it before so it needs to be foolproof. Preferably inexpensive.

bump - me too!

oh me too
I scared myself with my glow in the dark legs the other day

I remember some sort of moisturiser that had a subtle tanny thing in it and you built it up daily

but maybe it was shit

those gradual build up ones are the easiest to use and less likely to go streaky and cheapest!

the best one I have found for looking natural is the fake bake one for fair skin - no oranginess!

TY

Which format works best. They seem to do a cream, a mousse, and an airbrush/...

I would suggest a moisturiser with a hint of fake tan that takes a few days to build up.

L'oreal is a good one, which some in a couple of shades.

Dont' forget to moisturise knees, ankles and elbows and allow to dry before applying tan.

For the face, Clarins have a new one out that's supposed to be great. Always moisturise before and wipe over mouth, around nose, hairline and eyebrows after application.

Can't beat St Tropez Everyday, imo.

Clarins! It's a bit expensive but so worth it.

A little tip - put equal amount of moisturiser (any type) and tanning lotion into your palm, mix together and apply.

1. It gives a more gradual tan
2. It makes product last longer

p.s. Clarins do a creamy type and gel type, I've tried both, and it appears to me there's no difference, its a personal choice.
