Spray Set

Can u only have set colours on spray tanning?
I'm thinking about having the spray on tan for my wedding because its apparently longer lasting, streak free and looks more natural than using lotion.
Problem is, I'm really fair and I'm worried I'll turn orange and look ridiculous! I only want a bit of colour and was wondering whether its possible to alter the amount of colour you spray on? Or can you only get set colours?
I wouldn't normally bother, but because it will be a Summer wedding and everyone else will most probably be tanned, I don't want to stick out like a sore thumb!
Thanks everyone xx
they have ones specially designed for fair skin (they dont turn you orange) so i wouldnt worry. personally, i prefer using lotion as spray tans can be expensive and dont last for long. but as your getting it done for your wedding, itll probably be easier.
if you decide to apply lotion, make sure you exfoliate before you begin, using a loofah or some kind of body scrub (i love those exfoliating gloves you get, you can get them from boots for about £3). this will make the colour go on much smoother and more naturally. dry your skin thoroughly afterwards and decide where you are going to apply the tanner. you might want to apply some extra moisturiser to areas where the skin is a bit tougher than the rest of your body, like knees and elbows. this skin can look funny when fake tan is applied so the moisturiser should give you a more even look.
sometime it helps to start from your feet and work up, as this way you don't get lines and streaks on your upper body when you bend over. apply the cream in even, circular motions. you could try wearing rubber gloves, this is supposed to make application smoother and also protects your hands from staining. don't overdo it on areas like knees and elbows and when you apply it to your face, watch you don't overdo your neck in comparison. if you want cream applied to your back you will need assistance.
once you have applied it you should wash your hands immediately to stop staining, and take care to wash your nails, cuticles and in between your fingers as cream tends to gather here. you have to let the tanning cream dry for at least half an hour, so don't put clothes on or you risk staining them and cause patches to develop on your skin. the only thing to do is sit on an old towel in a room where you have some privacy so that you are not moving around a lot lol. a good time of the day to apply self tanning lotion is before you go to bed, so that you don't stain your clothes, but remember to put old towels on the sheets so that you don't stain them either.
when i use fake tan, i use a make up sponge or a cotton wool pad to do my hands with. also bend your fingers to get in between your knuckles to prevent any tell tale white lines. using a sponge gives an even coverage with no harsh lines and no stained palms. good luck with your wedding. congratulations.
hope this helps
