I never understood people who think it is good to rub this stuff into your skin....

I tried self-tanner once back when I was in high school.  Never again.

@tototwo You brought back memories from the 60's when my girlfriend and I decided to put our babysitting money together and go to our local drugstore to get some tanning lotion OH WHAT A MISTAKE, the only good thing was there was no school,but family members laughed so. We both were  light skin , and we both turned STREAKING Orange ,we didn't see each other for a week, and never took so many baths and showers . Never tried again and bet they are much improved but that one  summer day scared me , I always pass when see self tanners on shopping channels.

There's one particular host that doesn't seem to take much care when applying. I always notice the feet and they never seem to apply that area carefully. It's like they just slap it on.

This is neither here nor there (so to speak):

About a week or so ago, I thought my TV screen was 'off' on the color.

So I attempted to correct the what I thought was my TV screen problem.

Then, as I looked closer, the vendor(s) from his/her home via Zoom (or whatever) had normal skin tone.

So, after thinking about it, I'm only guessing that the host(s) were wearing self tanners, which had an orange tint.

Maybe too much, too soon.   

'Little by little' applications might be better.

I remember my first try at self tanner..oh brother. I was getting ready for my 8th grade graduation dance...bought self tanner, shaved my legs cut myself several times, put on the tanner.  Off I went in my baby pink dress with orange legs and little bandaids stuck to them. I was sure no guy would ask this idiot to dance.  But they did!  I had a great time and a good memory.

Let us all remember that because of COVID all the hosts are doing their own hair and make-up and nails. They are probably doing their own self-tan as well. None of these things will look as good as when the professionals do them. Maybe we could cut the hosts a break just this once.

The host I spoke of had the messy tanner long before COVID.

Kerstin is generally overly self-tanned.  When it it obvious you have self-tanned, you have applied too much too often.

Years ago Philosophy had an excellent self tanner. Smelled nice, no steaminess, went on white so easy to blend and looked like a true beach tan! However, as with all good things from Philosophy, long gone post sale! Sad!!
