Best way to apply fake tan

With better weather on its way and thinking about getting those legs out on view. A bit of fake tan is the best way to get summer ready. My tips to applying the best tan is to think ahead and get your skin prepared and apply it gradually over a week.

• Exfoliate your skin well ( a good rub with a towel will suffice) before applying tan
•  massage in a body lotion after shower/bath for a couple of days before applying tan.
• Ready for tan - remove all rings and run some warm water in basin.
• take about a walnut size of tan and mix it together with normal body lotion
• Apply this by rubbing in both hands then work one leg at a time massaging vigourously
• avoid knees and ankles until used all the cream on hands, then rub over knees and ankles with excess 
• Then repeat this process on other leg, and add a little less to body lotion per arm, but still massage vigorously. If you want to do all the body start by using excess tan/moisture per limb and spreading on to stomach ,back ,neck and shoulders etc.(watch out not to stain inside of arms and I suggest a tan specially for face, I tend to just warm my face with bronzers rather than fake tan.)
• When finished applying very quickly wash your hands with soap and the warm water ready run in basin. Dry hands and then put your rings back on.
• Repeat this process daily until got the density of tan you wish. Once that is achieved just top up your tan every other day or two days.

I tend to go for the summer skin tans that give a subtle tan like Johnsons Holiday Skin, but be wary as some tans are darker that others so adapt accordingly and please wash those hands thoroughly to avoid that awful staining.
