Got a Streaky Tan?

Getting the perfect sun kissed look is what you desire this spring and summer. Yet, after applying a self-tanner, you realized there’s an uneven tan? Oh no!

You can fix the self-tanning mistake by:

• Soaking a cotton ball in lemon juice and placing it over stripy areas. The citric acid from the lemon is a natural skin lightener and exfoliator.
• Massaging plain baking soda onto damp skin with small, gentle circular motions. Like lemon juice, baking soda will take off freshly dyed cells and reveal untanned skin underneath.
• Soaking yourself in a hot tub or Jacuzzi with chlorine. The effect from the self-tanning solution will be diluted as skin cells absorb water.

Get the Most Natural Looking Glow with Self-Tanners

• Choose the right shade based on your natural skin tone
• Exfoliate skin before first use
• Always apply to dry and clean skin
• Be careful to use it on dry areas like knuckles, knees, ankles, and in-between fingers/toes – this could lead to dark areas
• Rub in circular motion to avoid streaks
• Wash hands immediately after use
• Allow several minutes for product to dry before you dress
• Avoid getting wet or sweaty for 3 hours to allow formula to fully absorb into the skin
• Allow 1 week of daily use to see results 

Try Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer (Available at drugstores)
