Get perfectly bronzed pins
Bronzed legs are just a few steps away

‘Tis the season of the bronzed goddess – faked of course – but if the thought of flashing your flesh has you running for the darkest corner, then this is the guide for you

1 Hot fuzz
Don’t let the natural look extend to your body hair routine. Fake tan applies better to smooth, hair-free skin and de-fuzzing the day before you apply self-tan will give your skin plenty of time to calm down. There are endless options to get your pins looking pretty – waxing can ensure you’re hair-free for up to three weeks, while shaving is quick and painless, and great for when you’re in a hurry.

2 Scrubbing up well
One of the most important rules of foolproof tanning is exfoliation. Regular buffing and polishing will get rid of any dead cells. At least two hours before you apply your tan, use an exfoliating scrub and massage in circular movements starting from the ankles and working your way up. Take your time and concentrate on potential problem areas such as elbows, armpits, knees and ankles.

3 Hydration station
Moisturise dry areas to avoid patches and pay close attention to wrists and hands. This will ensure an even application and a streak-free finish. Allow plenty of time for the lotion to be absorbed before applying self-tan. For added smoothing and sculpting, try one with an anti-cellulite formula. Moisturise everyday to maintain your new golden tan.
