Fix a Self Tanning Mistake!

So you decided to try Self-Tanning for the first time, or maybe you are an old pro! You apply/spray it on, wait for the color to develop, take a look in the mirror and discover.... Oooooh no! You are covered in orange streaks!

Well don't worry about it :) I have a little DIY Self Tanning Mistake Fixer that will fade it away and leave you feeling refreshed!

Ingredients:

1 lemon

¼ cup sugar

¼ cup sea salt

¼ cup baking soda

Instructions:

1.) Mix sugar, sea salt, and baking soda in a small bowl

2.) Cut the lemon in half

3.) Dip the exposed side of the lemon into the mixture

Now, gently rub the lemon slice along any streaky and blotchy areas of your body. Another method is to squeeze the lemon juice directly into the mixture and apply the paste to streaky areas with your hands, a loofah, or a washcloth.The lemon is going to lighten your self-tanner streaks and the sugar, sea salt, and baking soda will exfoliate.

Try to do this as soon as possible after the mistake, because the sooner you realize it, the sooner you can fix it!
