Self Tanner?
Permalink Closed


What's a good self tanner for very fair skin? I can't use just any tanner because I'm so fair it makes me look orange. Anyone have any reccos?

Even if it's pricey it's OK. I'm sure it beats paying for a Mystic tan every 4 days!

I really like the jergens natural glow moisturizer, they have one espeically for fair skin, and you just use it daily like regular moisturizer and your tan builds gradually. I used this last year when I was super pale and it looked really natural on me.

I really like L'Oreal Sublime Bronze.  It is similar to Jergens Natural Glow except that is seemed to go on smoother to me.

I just bought Glow Fusion and love it. It lasts forever, I literaly put it on Friday and I'm still tan!

I've used JNG for the last two seasons. I started with the lightest formula, but didn't really see any results (and I'm very fair too), so I use the medium.

I think Jergens makes me look orange, and I'm light skinned. Plus it stinks and washes off. I didn't see any results with the fair skin formula, so I went to the medium. I was orange.

I like Coppertone's 30 minute self-tanner. I looked brown and not orange with that one. I think these self tanners are all hit and miss. What works for someone, won't necessarily work for someone else. :\

Is that a spray?  If so, how does it go on?  Could you review it? I have tried a can of Neutrogena spray tan and it went on horribly.  It left streaks.

i am extremely pale, like blindingly pale, plus, my skin is extremely dry, so i streak really really easily. i use a combination of products to keep me from looking like a ghost and to keep myself from streaking.  i use the oil of olay lotion with sunless tanner in it.  it is very subtle so i can use it generously and i can use it just about every day.  and since it is so subtle, and moisturizing, i never streak with it.  and once a week i will use revlon skinlights sunless tanner.  it is a beautiful color and it has a bronze tint to it so i can see where i am getting it.  it really doesn't streak very easily, so if it does, it is easy to correct with the oil of olay.  i know it seems like a very long hastle of a ritual, but it really isn't.  especially if you don't have a problem with streaks.

I absolutely love Dove Energy Glow.  I used it religiously last summer, it's subtle, but doesn't turn me orange, and is the only self tanner I've found that actually smells pretty good.  The summer before last I used JNG and I think it smells so nasty!  Plus, it streaks and wears off really weird, at least on me.
