    Hi there
    I have a family wedding in Poland in August. I' d love to have a tan but wonder which route is best.
    Should I start using a gradual tanner to build up a tan? Are they any good, would I have to apply it EVERY day and how far before the wedding should I start?
    Or should I get a spray tan done by my beautician. The latest I could get it done would be the Wednesday as we are travelling on the Thursday and the wedding in on Saturday. Will it be patchy looking by then?
    Any advice welcome :D

    If you're a tanning virgin I'd get it done professionally, a spray tan. Less errors and it'll give a better result than the gradual tanning lotions. It won't be patchy looking by the Saturday, they last up to a week. Just make sure you keep yourself well moisturised after you get it. And exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate before you get it done. And then exfoliate some more :)

    If you can afford it, go for a test run on the tan, so you know how it progresses after showers/moisturising. You could just get a half body to cut the cost.
