taking off patchy tan

PlayGirl

Had fake tan on last week (St Moriz) but now all thats left is a very thin layer, and then patches under my arms, between fingers etc (eugh).

Any tips on how to get this off quickly? Don't want to have to wait for it to wear off.

I already use exfoliating gloves every time I shower

Thanks

Make a scrub using lemon juice and brown sugar... It should take it off. Failing that, try baking soda. These usually work for me.

Or use Hibi Scrub. It's an antimicrobial skin cleanser, you'd see it in labs and hospitals a lot. Nothing strips tan better. It doesn't exactly smell pleasant, but you can use your regular shower gel afterwards, and you won;t smell like a swimming pool then:D. You can buy it in any chemist, the regular size bottle is under a tenner. It is quite strong, but it's amazingly effective.

I put baby oil on those patches and scrub with a facecloth, comes off really quickly.

I know you can't really do this now, but if you gently exfoliate and moisturise your tan will generally fade away grand, so maybe try that next time. A good way to get rid of patchy tan sometimes is to put more on, I use Dove summer glow sometimes and it works nicely

Have a bath to soak your skin and then scrub yourself all over with exfoliating gloves.

after a shower, cover yourself in baby oil, literally plaster it on, leave it to soak for about 20 mins and hop into the shower again with the exfoliating gloves!
