Top self-tanning tips

Exfoliate skin before you tan to lift all those dead skin cells and avoid tell-tale patches.

Moisturise, paying attention to extra dry areas like elbows, ankles and knees, letting it sink in before applying the tan.

Apply tan-blocking Vaseline to eyebrows and hairline.

Wear gloves, unless you want George Hamilton-coloured palms, remembering to dab the back of your hands with tanning solution using a cotton pad afterwards.

Apply the tan in a smooth circular motion.

Invest in a back applicator for those tricky-to-reach spots.

After applying, buff away tan build-up using a buffing mitt.
