Paula collected tips for perfect self-tanning.
Take your time
To provide your body with a tanned shade, you should take at least half an hour. An hour is actually even better. But don't be discouraged. You would need more time to get the same tan from the sun.
Make sure your palms don't discolor
You can wear plastic gloves. That makes it more difficult to apply. Another method is to wash your hands every few minutes. You can scrub the self-tanner from your cuticles and between your fingers with a nail brush.
Different body parts, different treatment
Some body parts discolor more easily than others. It can differ per person. Be careful around your nose, eyes, ears, hairline and lips. A cotton swab, make-up sponge or brush can be good tools for applying a dosed layer to these parts of the body.
