How come EVERY slef tanner I use turns me orange?

Question

I've used plenty, all claim will not turn you orange but my face always does? Also, why doesn't my face burn or tan? I used to be able to tan when i was a life guard extremely well, but not anymore!

Answer 1

do you use the tanners that are specified for your face?
if you do, then I don't know what's wrong
if you don't...then try that

Answer 2

If you are in the UK go to Superdrugs and get Solait Shimmering Self Tan. I use this as I am fair and do not tan that well, this also contains a gold shimmer so that helps tame the orange and makes you to look healthy too.

Try it!

Answer 3

the face is very delicate, the skin copes very well to sun exposure and puts up a defense to protect it, so thats why you probably can't tan as easily, try using a tinted moisturiser like virgin vie's sheer perfection it also contains an spf so it protects from early aging of the skin, its not a foundation just a cream so it won't be blotchy or patchy

Answer 4

Use Clarin's Self tanner it works so good. There is also this stuff called San Tropez, it's a little pricey but it's worth it!

Answer 5

Beacuse every self tanner sucks. Use the sun .

Answer 6

Try a "self" tanner instead of a "slef" tanner.

Answer 7

They always say that. Go to a tannner or get the body sprayed at a salon

Answer 8

you can also get airbrushed, it doesn't turn you orange like the mystic. Or use the special forumulas made for your face, i think there is one by coppertone called faces.

Answer 9

They have keratin in them. It's a derivative of carrots. This is no BS. That's why. You're actually dying yourself orange.

Answer 10

use moisturiser before you put it on!!! if that doesn't work and your orange and streaky then rub lemon juice on!! dove moisturiser with a hint of tan is great tho!!
