I might give that one a go, I've bought the he shi water one to try. But if there is any smell to it, I'll probably give up ( I have sensory issues and smells are a huge thing for me)I try to but it comes to Summer and I like a glow! I don’t tan either, fair with freckles. Religiously wear SPF50 everyday.
Best gradual tan I’ve used is He-Shi Light. Has never streaked and it really buildable.
Pale skin is beautiful though so embrace it!
It isn’t overly fragranced and dries quickly xI might give that one a go, I've bought the he shi water one to try. But if there is any smell to it, I'll probably give up ( I have sensory issues and smells are a huge thing for me)
Yes praise the maxi dress!!My legs look transparent in summer and I love wearing black so the contrast with the brighter days is 🫥 I do tan easily but I’ve always tried to avoid the sun. I like to apply an illuminating moisturiser as a compromise, glowy without the tan. Currently using this one:
I have two bottles of MineTan in the bathroom and love the look but it’s too much effort. Thankfully midi/maxi clothes have been in fashion the past few years 🫢
I've been there and you are right the pain isn't worth it!Yes me! I’m very pale and burn easily and anything less than Factor 50 leaves me resembling a lobster. I do look better with a bit of colour but it’s not worth the hassle and pain of burning first.
I aways cover my head and try not to expose my face too much, I'm the same wish I'd been more careful, I've some pigmentation now that could have been avoided but at least I'm preventing now!Omg this is MY thread. Pale red head here! I hate the sun, more so as I am now 42 and going through early menopause, the sun and heat causes awful flushes. I always wear a cap when walking the dog, hat in the summer and factor 30 to 50 everyday on my face. I was young in the 90s when having a tan wasn't seen as a risk or a bad thing to fair skin, now I am so so careful and wish I had been more in my youth. The sun makes me angry!!
I can't stand the smell eitherI can't stand the shade and smell of fake tan, and I become a lovely shade of weird beige if I ever manage to tan naturally (endless joys of fair skin but green/olive undertones), so it'll be SPF 50+ for me all summer and all year, always. My personal opinion of course but fake tan hardly ever looks naturally glowy, so I've embraced the pasty skin year round. Hope you give it a try, fair skin is lovely and I always envy those who have a lovely pink-warm or cool tone. Whatever I do I look kind of sick so I gave up
It is a bit of an effort isn't it. Worse if the results aren't great either.I’m really fair, I only have to look at the sun and I burn. Bright red then back to whiteI wear spf everyday, and I hate the smell of fake tan so I don’t bother at all, I just embrace my fair skin I did try dove gradual tan once and it was alright but it’s just effort I Cba with
I usually come home paler than I go because I always have a dark spray tan beforeIt is a bit of an effort isn't it. Worse if the results aren't great either.
I hate getting on the plane after 2 weeks away, I'm the same colourwell maybe slightly pink everyone else is glowing!
All this is me!!! I have really dry skin though so can’t even the colour out with a fake tan thoughI dont mind being pale its the uneven skin tones that’s doing me. After a day in the garden my back is red, my leg are still blue white all over and my front torso is white with freckles all over!! I’ve had to apply a generous layer of fake tan to balance myselfI don’t care for the smell or the mess I just need to be one colour all over even if it is orange
I usually come home paler than I go because I always have a dark spray tan beforemy husband despairs that I take fake tan on holiday with me to mix with my after sun
oh noAll this is me!!! I have really dry skin though so can’t even the colour out with a fake tan though
Yep, I exfoliate with Korean cloths and moisturise every day, I just have the driest knees known to mankindoh nohave you tried the exfoliating shower gloves? My husband really struggles with dry skin but his has got much better since he’s been using them once a week- we slap moisturiser on him whilst he’s still a bit wet and he puts a towelling robe on until it’s all dry. It’s definitely got a lot better.
Me! I live in Spain and we are just starting to get hot for the summer and I will be pale and in the shade.Hey!
Any fellow pale/fair girls out there?
I am extremely fair, I don't take a tan, so I've given up a few years ago and decided to be sun sensible and also as to prevent aging.
But summer is coming and I see everyone with their golden glows
I've tried every fake tan under the sun, I don't care what people say they all STINK!
Does anyone just embrace their pale/blue skin?
