Don't know what your moaning about, it was my stag do at the weekend, i got covered in shaving foam and then my 'mate' hands me a baby wipe to clean my face, little knowing it's a taning cloth and now i have a brown streaky face!

water and washing up liquid does it. I noticed this when my hands went white again after doing some washing up. It's particularly helpful for splodgy feet! soak them in a bowl of sudsy water for 20 mins or so. Failing that, if you can bear exposing them, the swimming pool trick works too!

St tropez do a tan remover!

the best way to get an even tan is to buy something called velvo tan, its a mit that smears it on correctly

Exfoliate and use lemon juice then SCRUB SCRUB SCRUB and then moisturise

Thanks folks!! I need to invest in velvo tan. I did try a combination of all your suggestions and eventually got rid of the streaks, am going to buy some remover or correcter or whatever its called for future tan disasters!
My OH thinks its odd we girls pay a fortune for fake tan stuff then pay a fortune for stuff to take it off again!! Lol

Go for a spray tan - they are fantastic. Just make sure it is one where someone sprays you and not a booth! That's if you don't mind stripping off in front of someone :j

Yeah I have never had any problems with Fake Bake - annoying though as I used to buy it on Ebay, there were loads of sellers - but now apparently Fake Bake have banned it on ebay! There are a still few there, but not my usual trusted sellers!
