For best results,exfoliate before applying any self tanners.
Always smooth evenly,applying small sections at a time. Blend in quickly and uniformly until completely absorbed. Use sparingly around hairline,knees,ankles and elbows.
Use gloves or wash hands immediately. Avoid contact with clothing for 15-20 mins and avoid white all together. DO NOT USE WHITE TOWELS!

4. Dr. Hauschka Translucent Bronze Concentrate(for face)
5. Jerkins Natural Glow
Removal.... Just in case
Exfoliation
The most common method of tanner removal is exfoliation. Self-tanner is essentially a dye that deposits pigment onto the skin. When the skin is scrubbed, the skin cells slough off, taking with them the self-tanner. Follow these steps to successfully remove self-tanner from the body:
1. Apply a thin layer of baby oil to the body.
2. Allow it to soak in for 25-35 minutes.
3. Immerse yourself in warm bath water.
4. Gently exfoliate the skin, using either a sugar scrub (which is less harsh than a salt scrub), a washcloth or a loofah.
