I LOVE Banana Boat tanner with bronzer. Make sure you exfoliate first, LOTS of lotion second, apply tanner then dont touch anything for about an hour to let it completly dry. Thats my process.

I just tried the Bath & Body Works tanner and it has GREAT color but VERY streaky!

I like the ones by Neutrogena and Lancome.

If you wears wraps on your nails, WEAR GLOVES, as it will badly stain acrylic or silk.

Este Lauder Go Bronze...it's an amazing self tanner that I've been using for years...people always think I've been laying in the sun for hours (and in reality I'm white as a ghost!)

Re: self tanners?

I have used Neutragena...the spray...in light to medium...I think it gives a light natural look (I am very pale to begin with...I didn't want anything 'unnatural')

I even had someone say to be...'someones been to the beach!'

what I do...after a shower...I get out and spray it on...rub it in just to even it out...and then let it soak in (for however long they tell you)...then I rinse again in the shower...

I don't use it on my face...I usually burn anyway in 2 mins...so that will fade into a tan...
