use the johnsons/dove tan maintainer- its a moisturiser with slight tanning agents in it- so not a bottle of ornage fake tan
also make sure you alway moisturise.

I think the sunbed gives you a completely different tan to the sun. The sun gives a very golden glow whereas the sunbed tan is pretty dull (although better than being a milk bottle) If i were you i would use that johnsons holiday skin. It will moisturise and keep that glow you've got. I love it...By the way the dove version goes all patchy.....

Use Tan Accelerators, they help keep your tan. Elemis do a duo pack on QVC, EcoTan is another good brand. They also stop you burning before you go out in the sun if you apply 10 days before.
You should not tan your face, as you will have a prune like appearance in a few years time. Sun causes 80% of wrinkles and the leather look is ugly. Have to preach this to everyone as have a bee in my bonnet about it.

Just keep exfoliating well and moisturing well. Perhaps try one of the 'almost fake tan' moisturisers, like Nivea etc. Good luck...and hope you settle ok back in the UK!

Avoid really hot baths and showers, they can make you lose your tan quicker, try and avoid baths altogether and use a mild shower. Also use loads and loads of moisturiser after a shower to keep your skin soft, try and avoid your skin drying out.

use lots of moisturiser and it will keep for a few months. Well it works for me anyway. Don't use sun beds or anything, they seriously damage your skin. Even if you don't use it a lot it's really bad for your skin and you look orange anyway.

Don't take a shower. the more you shower the more your pigments will get washed away. Also, try not too poop so much. The brown in your poo will help your skin stay tanner.

Let's face it...a natural tan in the uk...aaahh ha ha ha ha! But to prolong it try exfoliating when you shower.

keep using suntan cream, twice daily. for some reason it keeps the tan going for much longer! works for me!
