How to apply self tanner without streaks?

Q. I just can't do it lol.

The stuff I have is rated one of the best tanning lotions out there so I don't think it's the quality, but I always seem to get lines on me. I've spent so long putting it on before, just rubbing and rubbing at the edges to blend it or try to, and by the time it darkens it looks awful.

The worst areas are my hands and feet. I always have these awful streaks between my fingers and on the side of my hand.

Any tips to streak-free lotion?

I refuse to go to a tanning place. I'd rather be a ghost than have look like a leather couch and have skin cancer by the time I'm 40.

Help please??


Answer
Use gloves.
SELF-TANNERS: "I've had many patients who think these products somehow offer UV protection or that they give them a 'base tan' so they won't burn," says Dr. Hale, a NYC M.D., dermatologist and vice chair of the Skin Cancer Foundation. "'If I have skin cancer, you'll just remove it, and I'll be OK'. But the color that self-tanners create on your skin is completely artificial. But a lot of young women use these products so they don't look pale when they go to the beach to tan." 86% of women surveyed who use self-tanners reported they'd also baked in the sun, and 36% admitted they'd also used tanning beds (a leading cause of melanoma!) at least once in the past year. Australian study confirms that sunless tanning likely did not reduce the amount of UV exposure women get.

Spray-tan fans beware! Christina Aguilera discovered an unfortunate side effect to her faux-glow when her tan reportedly ran down her leg during her tribute at Etta James's memorial service, People magazine Red Carpet Style issue page 10.
Example 1 from YA: "Spray tan won't come off after 3 weeks! Help!?
I got a spray tan about 3 weeks ago for a formal and it won't come off!

I get a body shower every day and the spray tan around my arms and neck have come off but my chest and legs and stomach are so patchy! Even if I scrub at it with an exfoliation cloth, it will not come off. It's so ugly".

Example 2: "Bad spray tan..can I try to cover it up by going to a high pressure tanning bed?
I used loreal spray tan on myself last night and now my arms are uneven..pale in some spots and dark in others".

Example 3: I just got a spray tan at L. A. Tan (1st time) and when I got home I noticed that my chest area had dark colored dots from the spray tan and it looks really bad with low cut shirts. It's half white and half brown! Is there anything I can do to help blend the color in like lotions or even remove the tan? I don't want to go to school looking like a lady bug!

If you get laser-hair removal DO tell your doctor or technician if you're tan, otherwise he might use the wrong laser setting, potentially burning the skin. Avoid self-tanners for 30 days pretreatment.

Example 4: "About a week ago i got a sun burn on my chest and shoulders from playing sports outside. The burn wasnt too bad but yesterday i went and got a spray tan to even out all the lines for summer. I woke up this morning and my chest and shoulders were peeling from the previous burn. there are now about 3 different skin tones/shades on these areas."

Young & the Restless - today which was Summer's Graduation Day, her mom Phyllis Newman - had a self tanner. Her fingers were pale, the rest of her body had spray tan. Even on soap TV, they have bloopers on fake tan products!

DANGEROUS WARNING FROM YA: Anyone sick inhaling Ulta's Spray bottles or any mist from sprays? Posted 6-14-13.

PALE IS GOOD, so why use self-tanner products?
Watch Mirror, Mirror when the evil queen played by Julia Roberts wanted to look as fair as the princess played by Lily Collins. I came from a vacay in Ireland, and many of the people there working in the profession (luxury hotels and banks, etc.) have beautiful white complexion!

Is it true that everyone see's themselves differently than they actually look?

Q. Hey, when I look into the mirror I see myself as pale. When I ask my mom she's tells me that I have a good tan but I don't see a tan when I look into the mirror. I also have another issue, when I look at my teeth they look yellow and disgusting to me but when I ask my mom and my friends they say that I have externally white teeth. Why is it that I can't see what they say I look like? I do love myself but I am Insecure. I really hate being pale, I know everyone says I'm tan but I don't see it and the same goes with my teeth. Please help me and tell me if this is normal or what? Thanks


Answer
Everyone's find something NEGATIVE about themselves, their noses are too long or too flat, their eyes not even, their skin have blemish or discolorations, they're too dark, they're too pale, they're too fat, they're too skinny, they're too short or too tall, and so on and so forth.

But for those who sees YOU, they compliment your negative, and you don't see that as a positive!
POSITIVE people are what makes them BEAUTIFUL.

I've been protecting myself from the sun since age 9, but no matter, I got Discoid Lupus. Google that one. It was like someone punched my chin and it gave a purplish mark. It took 12 years for that to fade, so now I'm using a wide brim hat or umbrella for protection. Gene Simmons & Shannon both have been seen hold an umbrella during an event. They were invented before beauty products, for a reason. Google also Bullous Pemphegoid, photos, another skin disorder.

We all have flaws. Even celebrities making tons of dollars a day! "I think that promoting insecurity in the form of plastic surgery is infinitely more harmful than an artistic expression related to body modification."
~ Lady Gaga, referring to her cheek prosthetics, which she no longer wears.

Positive attitude makes people BEAUTIFUL, It's because they see other parts of the world suffering more than them. If it's about your tummy, jaw, breasts, face etc. today, what will you find about yourself that's negative tomorrow.
I thought I was ugly, because I never dated, but I treat people with respect, and I inspire them, making their negatives into a positive. Coming from Asia, I've been to where people only eat rice all day & nothing else, but that never bother me, so I've been there, I can relate, but people who has MORE than us, can't seem to appreciate how lucky they are.

âPeople always shoot down what they donât understand... The only way to achieve beauty is to feel it from inside without breaking it down into individual physical attributes.â Wait, did I just quote Miley Cyrus?
