Now that Summer is almost here, many of us want to jump start our tans.
Using a self-tanner is a great way to add subtle color to your face and body.

Using a self-tanner is a great way to add subtle color to your face and body.
But what does one do when a self tanning episode goes awry?
Here is a quick way to fix a streaky tan.
Soak a cotton ball in lemon juice, be sure it's 100% lemon juice and not a mixture. Swipe the cotton ball over any overly orange areas. Lemons contain Citric Acid which is a natural lightener. The Citric Acid will also act as an exfoliator and help remove the skin cells and brighten the area.
No lemon juice on hand? Use baking soda and a bit of water to create another natural exfoliator. Use gentle, circular motions to slough off skin cells.
For a gradual tanning experience, mix your self-tanner with your daily moisturizer (equal parts) blending well before applying. The result will be a more subtle, natural tan.
Always be sure to use sun protection when you are outside. Look for foundations and moisturizers with SPF.
