I did the self-tanner thing for so many years I just got worn out with it. Having to be so careful the way it was applied so I wouldn't have streaks, making sure I got everything thoroughly washed from my hands or around my nails, having faded patches appear after showering that always needed a touch-up...one day I just said, "ENOUGH"!
I have fair skin and never get any kind of tan and of course, NOW, I don't even try to because of the known danger the sun goes to our skin. If I am going to wear capris, skirt or a dress, I use Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs. It gives my legs a slight natural looking glow, is SO easy to use and washes off completely in the shower. I always buy it at Walgreens, I'm sure it is available at many other drugstores or discount stores.

I find that using a good sunscreen and going out into the sun in the late afternoon is best for me. I have olive skin so that helps also. My Derm. said that I am doing fine.
@BARBIE100Girl, I'm the lightest olive you'll ever see. It only shows up when I'm draped with colors or if I use the wrong colors. Even makeup counters do me wrong! Everything turns me green except San Tropez or Jergens Glow- with Glow, I can't wear more than two coats, but I don't want to look harsh like Q's examples anyway so that's ok! There is NO yellow/green in this! A282334

I use Tan Towels and St. Tropez. I alternate, gives me the best color.
Jergen's makes me Sunkist Orange.

@ECBG Oh,dear! So sorry! I guess it depends on our body chemistry or they may have been past the shelf date. Bummer! 😕
