Avon Bronze Self Tanning Lotion Spray

Answer 5

i would think you could only get a natural tan -naturally. That would require sun. If this is not available to you ,then maybe you should consider just being happy with the way you are.Have a wonderful day.

Answer 6

Try a spray or a different cream- i hear jergens is good... also sit out in the sun but put on SPF 10 sunscreen so you will tan but not have a lot of skin damage.. also there are other sunscreens that help you tan

Answer 7

Johnson's Holiday Skin works really well for me, did you buy the one that suited your skin type or just pick up a random one off the shelf?

Remember you MUST exfoliate before you apply fake tan!

Answer 8

Walmart has something called Ocean Potion I like it and it smells great. It is cheap too.

Answer 9

I use the dove tanning moisturiser, although you need to rub it in really well - otherwise it can look streaky.

Any fake tan can look orange, you just need to make sure you apply it well.

If you intend to shave/wax before using the fake tan, do it the day before and make sure you exfoliate prior to applying it.

Also, exfoliate the morning after you've used it.

Answer 10

Answer 12

Answer 13

i have a nivia sun one and it is REALLY good, it's in an orange pump bottle and every time I have worn it people think it's real and i'm rediculously white lol

i bought it from the super market, but i haven't been able to find it lately and it's really annnoying.

Answer 14

I've tried so many different kinds that promise you a great tan and they fail.  All the ones at Walmart and the drug stores, they never work for me - and boy have I wasted money on them trying to be successful.  I have found that by trying to save money I ended up spending more, because the products did not work. :(

The one that has been successful and looks great is:

**St. Tropez**

It's a 3 part set and you really should use all 3 parts.  First a body scrub to remove dead skin cells that cause patchy application.  Then the tanning lotion and finally keeping it moisturized.

It comes in a variety of applications.

     The cream you apply at night before you go to bed.  It looks a little dark, but when you shower in the am - it looks super natural.

     The mouse is light and you can apply the same day as you use it, but be careful about getting wet too soon.

If money is a factor - look at eBay.  You can find it there cheaper than the stores, just watch shipping.

Here are two that are up right now:

The cream (complete set) - http://cgi.ebay.com/ST-TROPEZ-INSTANT-TA...

Good luck!

Answer 15

Go into a boots or pharmacy which has a beauty counter and someone there will tell you the best stuff to use for your skin tone.

Take a friend if your nervous.

But it will be worth it :-)
