How To: Fake Tan Your Face

Get your glow on! Contrary to popular belief, fake tanning your face is actually far easier than doing your body as there is far less chance of streaking and the glow that a coat of a good fake tan can create is phenomenal.

Choose a self-tan product that is produced purely for the face. The facial self-tan products have different ingredients that are kinder to the delicate skin on your face


Step one: Wash your face and remove every ounce of makeup - in-fact, wash it twice just for good measure. Exfoliate your face thoroughly with a medium grain facial exfoliant, or mix one part sugar to three parts daily facial wash to create your own.

Step two: After all this cleansing and scrubbing, your face will need a good moisturiser. Slap some on and then wait about 10 minutes so it has time to sink in.

Step three: Scrape your hair back with a head band so it does not get in the way, then apply the self-tan to your face and neck. When putting it on use the same method that you use for putting moisturizer on your face. Be sure to rub it all in.


Step four: The key to a good facial fake tanning session is to go slowly and carefully, so don't put too much on your hands to start off with. Use your finger tips to spread it evenly over your face, making sure that you go right to your hair line, and cover every bit of skin. Don't worry too much about getting it in your hair - you don't want to be coating your locks in it of course, but a little bit is not the end of the world as it will wash out.

Step five: Take a facial wipe, wet paper towel, or old wet towel and wipe your eyebrows carefully to remove any excess product. Do the same, very lightly (you don't want to remove ALL the product) around your nose, hairline, and the crease in your chin if you have one.


Follow these instructions you should end up with a healthy glow and no one will be any the wiser that it came out of the bottle.

I usually do my face at night before I go to bed, as wandering around during the day with a fake-tan shiny face is not very pleasant!

Make sure to wash your hands after too.
