Are there ANY self-tanning products that work really well & look natural? What about the "mystic" tan places?

I've tried a couple things, and they either made me look ORANGE or they were streaky and obvious......





What about those "mystic tan" places where you go and get the spray-on tan? Are those worth the money or not?

Krylon Honey Oak spray paint works pretty good.
Reply:Mystic tan is good if someone is actually spraying you. If you are standing in a machine that sprays you it won't come out as good. And you need some time after you do it. Prepare for messiness.
Reply:I'm not sure that when people say "mystic tan" they all mean the same thing. I have been going to an actual Mystic Tan booth for several years now and I love it. You don't get showered, just a light spray, and you don't rub it in. You actually stand on a metal, magnetized floor, which draws the fine mist to your body and dries in seconds. You can't shower for 4-6 hours, so the color seems a little intense for the last hour or so, but I've never thought it looked orange. I have often waited a few hours and applied a scent neutralizer that I purchased at the salon, then gone to work without showering with no problem (if you do this it will get on your clothes, but it washes out easily).





I skip at least two days between visits and select the lightest setting (I am very fair) for the most natural color. The manufacturer of the spray claims that the color lasts five days, but I would argue more like three good days and a few fade days. Moisturize twice a day, don't shave every day and you will look great!





Also, I recommend signing up for some sort of unlimited use package, because individual visits are very costly. At my salon it is $25 a visit or $50 monthly for unlimited visits if you sign up for automatic drafts. Hope this helps!
