What Should You Do If Your Self Tanner Turns You An Orange Mess

No matter who you are, you always strive to get the perfect streak-free tan with a beautiful bronze tint that will make you look a few years younger and a few pounds lighter.

But this isn’t always the case, sometimes self-tanners can turn you into an orange mess. We’ve all been there. We search on the internet ways to get the perfect tan yet when we try it ourselves, the tan gets bad. 

The good news is, one of the major advantages of self-tanning lotions is that if you end up messing up, the mess can fade away within a few days. But sometimes, a wrong product can end up making you orange or give you discoloration and streaks. 

If you’ve suffered from this and want a quick solution if it ever happens to you again, then you have come to the right place. We have listed down a list of tips that most people use to undo orange and discolored tan. 

Use Lemon Juice

  • If the results from a self-tanner didn’t turn out the way you expected them to, then simply apply a little lemon juice to your body. You can rub this juice with your hands or use a slice of lemon to remove any excess tanning lotion stains. 

Our customer swears that this trick works every time when their tan messes up. Give it a shot and let us know!

Use Baking Soda

  • Baking soda is a powerful little ingredient that you can use to sort out a variety of problems in minutes. To get rid of tanning splotches, simply mix a bit of baking soda to a moistened cloth and rub it across the body.

The baking soda will quickly bring about a bleaching effect that will not only get rid of blotches but will also leave your skin exfoliated. Pretty neat!

Use Pumice Stone

  • Since tanning lotions only affect the outermost layer of the skin, you can easily reverse the effects by removing dead skin cells. To do this, simply rub a pumice stone on the palms of your hand and other affected areas to eliminate all tanning lotion residue.

Try Sugar or Salt

  • Sugar and salt are both very abrasive in nature which means that you can use either to rub away tanning lotion stains with your hands. Just don’t forget to moisten your hands before you do this.

Use Vodka

  • Although using Vodka won’t remove the stains of a tanning lotion entirely, it will still help you fix the negative appearance of blotches and orange streaks. Gently rub vodka to your skin to get this effect. 

Nobody deserves to go through a mess a bad tanning lotion creates. At Tanning Lotion Warehouse, we have some of the finest and most effective tanning products in America. Try some of our new tanning lotions today and you won’t regret trying us out.
