Uneven natural tan

[tanya_the_dancer]

OK, since it is summer now, how do you deal with uneven tan?

For example, the top couple of inches of my arms are considerably lighter than the rest of the arm, since I was wearing mainly short-sleeved tees (good thing I didn't wear any v-necks lately), and my feet have tan-free spots in shape of my sandal straps. I compete in about 3 weeks, and at least the arms part matters because my competition dress shows more skin compared to what I wear on a daily basis.

I have the exact same problem.
for my last performance, i just used my compact blush on the lighter areas of my arms and cleavage, and it did the job. I guess you could get a bronzer to do it even better.

Does it stay on if you start sweating?

there is a moistureiser with a hint of self tan that you could use x

well, I only danced a couple of dances that time, but it did stay, just like it stays on the face. You just need to be careful not to stain the dress when you take it off.

The only problem with these mosturizers that i've found is that they wash off. I started apply the Jergens one at night and I found after my shower in the morning, the mosturizer was rubbing off on my towel. And it isn't dark enough to really cover uneven tans unless you have been applying it for a few days in a row.

The bronzer idea is a great idea. It shouldn't sweat off (at least when I wear my MAC bronzer at comps it stays on). I sometimes reapply it around lunch time. It's great for uneven tans because sometimes I don't always get my self tanner in tricky spots (like my back) before a comp. Bronzer fixes that.

sorry for throwing it in here I just kept reading last post trying to figure out where exactly is the connection between natural turn and a moisturizer..
