how do i fix faded fake tan?

[EmilieJay]

i have been using a brand of moisturiser with a hint of fake tan for a few weeks but it is not rubbing off in patches. i dont want to have to exfoliate my whole body as i'll end up even more patchy, any ideas what i can do?

You can buy corrector wipes in Boots at the No7 counter. They're pretty good.x

my housemate is a beauty therapist and she say that you may have not exfoliated properly before you applied and this is why its rubbing off/ patchy. Ideally you need a full body exfoliation, you can make your own with sea salt and a couple of drops of oil and mix into a thick consistancy you can work with. Sit on a towel on bathroom floor and dry scrub from feet upwards, take your time, about 45minutes to exfoliate properly. Concentrate on your knees, ankles, elbows and dry patches particuarly, but dont use on your face, its too heavy. It may also sting slightly but works a treat. Then jump in shower, careful though, olive oil with make you slippy! Rinse off, preferably with loafer, and when you come out of the shower, dry yourself with a stiff towel then use loads and loads of moisturiser! If its really bad you may need to repeat this treatment the following day. Next time your self tan put moisturiser on your feet, knees, elbows and hands, and dont use any false tan if your diabetic or epiletic because the medication effects the reaction. Or, if you are in the Preston area, come and see my mate she will sort you out! And she says, like all good paint jobs, its the prep that gives a good finish. Good luck x
