I'm very lovely to my boobs, so this is an all-time low for me and the girls. I'm going to cry myself to sleep cos I put factor 50 on my nipples but left my boobies to fry. Oh the cruelty!

Ive used Vaseline Intesive Care Healthy Glow for a while and it was nice. It gave me a real looking tan, no orange, but found it was hard to do the back and what not. I was thinking about getting another bottle but I may now look at the Tan Towels.

So I tried these wipe thingies! I have a few suggestions for everyone from my little experiment. First off, probably the best self tanner I've ever used. I love how it didn't sweat off in the crease of my arm nor did it look freaky freckly strange when I stopped using it. It just slowly faded away like a real tan would. Those two were definitely a huge plus since that was always my problem with other tanners. My only suggestion is to make sure your skin is moisturized and exfolliated before you use it! Even though I exfolliated, my skin was SUPER dry and it ended up soaking in a LOT of the product and I woke up super dark. I was hoping for a gradual process but since my skin absorbed so much it had a drastic result. My suggestion is to start heavily moisturizing and exfolliate a couple days before you use it that way it will go on evenly and develop gradually.

how do you get it close to your eyes and stuff? I don't want to look like a raccoon. I'm also worried about my ears & such.
Glad to hear your review. I was concerned about it sweating it off.

I just put it on very carefully. Since it's on a little towelette it made it easier to get in those difficult places cause you can fold it and use small corners to get in there; much easier than putting cream on! My ears and stuff I just wiped it all around there too. Since it's a gradual development, if you mess it up you wont really notice it too much. I guess it depends on how fair your skin is too. In general, having it be on a towelette made it much easier to get all these difficult places that cream usually messes up. I loved these things. And no foul smell either!

haha yeah that'd be a smart idea. I fake-baked the day before my wedding and it came out pretty nice but since it was crappy Jergens stuff it kinda rubbed off onto my wedding dress on the inside. It was only the inside so I guess that's not so bad. Here's a pic of me at my wedding so you can see. Attachments:

So pretty!!
Your tan looks great. Although I'm so nervous about it not coming out right, I might just bite the bullet and tan before my wedding. I so rarely get any sun anyway, my skin is pretty protected most of the time.
