    Hi Ladies! To all of you who have pale white skin and just turn into a lobster in the sun, what is the best self tanner you have used? I don't want to be super tan, I just want a natural color. I have very pink undertones to my skin, so most tanners just turn me orange. 

    Thanks!

    Hmm...I have olive undertones and am naturally very tan, but some do turn me orange.  The best Ive used are the neutrogena foam and neutrogena spray,  There is also another one I have - I have no idea where I got it, but I LOVE it.  Its called TanWise.  I know Sally's beauty sells it for the face, but I use the body one on my face and body.  Love it.  I've also heard great things about some of the ones at Sephora

    If you can afford it, I absolutely love the machine spray tans (mystic tan, magic tan, etc) at the tanning salon. Its the only thing I use and it is never streaky and looks great!

     

    I don't know if you have an "At The Beach" but that is where I go and they have what is called the Versa Spa. You get in, its sprays you on all sides and then air-drys you.. no need for towels or anything. I put my close on and then on with my day!

     

    I also totally live by Sally Hansen make-up for your legs.. but I use it on my whole body. It is amazing and gives you flawless looking skin. Its not waterproof, but I have worked out with it on and it didnt streak or start running down my legs or anything!

    I agree with lilcfitness, but if you don't have a salon near you, I suggest using the Neutrogena airbrush stuff.  I've used it once and it looked very natural (and I'm pretty much the whitest girl on the planet.)

    Neutrogena Mist Self-Tanner & No-Ad's self tanner. They are both great. Funny thing is since I cant do the mist myself all over, I get FH to do it - and well, he enjoys it quite a bit considering its everywhere & gets to spray me down all over LOL!!!!!!!

    Also, Jergens gradual tanner is great as well. Just smells and I cant get use to that.

    I use the Neutrogena Foam in the winter, I like that it feels light-weight and doesn't make me look orange.

    Sun Labratories is hands down the best self-tanner I have ever used.

    I used to get spray tanned every week (crazy I know BUT better than the beds!) but ever since I tried this stuff I haven't been back. Its AMAZING.

    I use FAKE BAKE!!  It's amazing!!  My daughter is an Esthetician and she recommended it.  It is so easy to apply and gives you a beautiful, natural tan!!  I use it all of the time, great for sensative skin.  It is 30.00 at Ulta!!  You wont be sorry.
