Fake Tan Friendly Body Lotions

Do you ever feel like everything is just right with your fake tan? The colour is just right, you are moisturising to maintain that glow and then, all of a sudden your tan starts to wear off, sometimes even a little patchy. Yes, this can have a lot to do with the tan and how you maintain it. But, did you know that applying a body lotion or cream that is full of oil and other nasties such as alcohol can strip the tan? Leaving you with a less than perfect finish. Today, I want to share with you all, my tried and tested body lotions (for all budgets) that not only help to maintain your fake tan but also leave you with silky soft skin.

Trust me when I say, I know a thing or two about a dodgy tan. I am a fake tan fanatic and will do my best to maintain it as best I can because there is nothing worse than a patchy tan in my opinion.

I hope you found this post helpful . Most of these lotions are very budget friendly, so staying hydrated , while faking a tan doesn’t have to break the bank. Although, I do have a soft spot for the more expensive Gallinee one I have to say…
