    No matter what kind of fake tan you get it is going to be pretty difficult to match the tones of your tanned skin.

    Best advice is to go shopping and get some snazzy new tops which show off your tanned limbs but not your tan lines.

    But then again I think I remember a poll (somewhere maybe here on boards) a while back that quite a number of guys dig tan lines....

    Good Luck

    most people will say its bad advice but....sunbed tan will cover that up! i only started using a sunbed there 2 weeks ago and after 4 sessions i've a really good colour and any imperfections (like strap marks) all faded into a very even colour. i'm not plannin on doin anymore sunbeds, but i'm sure those 4 sessions havent done much damage. so there's an option for ya. which you dont have to consider if you dont want.but fake tan will not cover uneven skin colour.

    Have to agree but don't do it if you have red hair or are very fair.

    ^^ Try St. Tropez Mousse ... You can see where you're applying it and it's more or less instant. That's what I would try...

    I wouldn't count on any fake tans to even out your tan! You will still be able to see the tan lines! The only other alternative I can think of is something like "Sally Hansen spray on tights" It's basically like foundation for your legs, it has fairly good coverage and I don't see why you couldn't put it on the rest of your body!! It doesn't come off when it gets wet either so you wouldn't have to worry about the rain!!
    Only other alternative is don't wear the top until the tan lines have disapeared!!
