    Does anyone here use spray in tan? If so what's the best kind? I have a natural tan but due to not wearing shorts and not having sun for so long my legs don't have the tan they have gotten a little pale and I hate it and with summer coming soon I'd like to wear shorts with out feeling subconscious about my legs and rest of my body being two different colors so I'd like to get a spray tan for my legs that would even my legs out with my natural tan but that will also allow my legs to get a natural tan when I'm out in the sun any ideas?

    What about just trying a tinted moisturizer? I know Jergens has a natural glow body lotion that is pretty affordable. It makes a pretty subtle difference though so I'm not sure if it would have the level of impact you are looking for. I can't say I've used it from personal experience though. I have naturally very fair skin and some of these products just make my skin look orange.

    I'd recommend Johnson's Holiday Skin. It builds up a natural glow over time, and you won't get that typical orange tint. It also moisturises your skin. Start now applying it to your legs and you'll have a lovely glow in 3 - 4 weeks.

    I also would recomend a natural moisturizer. I have not seen a spray tan yet that looks natural. Most people get this horrible orange tint to their skin. And I would never recomend going to a tanning booth. I think they are just as dangerous as to much direct sunlight. Always go for a natural tinted lotion.

    I don't know about the spray tan, I have never used it, but I have a friend that used it and she had put too much or left it on too long don't remember which but she looked more orange then she did tanned, it was funny, she was so mad. I think I will just stick to the old fashion way, a little sun now and then, not too much though. Let us know how the spray works.:D

    i tried a spray tan once, when I was in high school and it was winter. I looked a little orange. It's dangerous, but I like getting a tan naturally despite UVA and UVB radiation. I just bought mine at Wal-mart. There are probably great alternatives to the one I had.

    I also recommend something natural, because a lot of the non-performing spray.
    A friend of mine put the spray on hand and got some stains.

    So be careful about that very

    I just use more natural things like moisturizers or just lotions with a hint of a darker color than my usual skin tone.
    I also invested in some body poster which is so much easier to apply and it just adds a touch that looks so amazing on the skin and natural.

    I see your problem. Spray tans are quite expensive and they contain lots of harmful chemicals which penetrate the skin and infiltrate the bloodstream. Surely you could sunbathe in shorts for a week for your legs to 'catch up' with the rest of your body.

    Do they sell lotion that you can use for a tan too. I remember a friend who used the lotion and it looked natural and seems like a safer alternative than a spray tan.

    I say just get a natural tan. A spray tan, in my opinion, makes a person "fake." Just like makeup does. Spray tans basically are like the human equivalent of a paint job for a car. However, a spray tan masks a person's actual appearance, which I find unappealing. Real, sun-obtained tans look much better and are actually physically real.
