What's the best way to get a natural looking tan?

I tried sunbeds for about a year and didn't really see a big difference to be honest (please don't lecture me - i did this under my doctor's orders to treat the skin condition i had at the time and no longer use them) I'm fed up being really pale though, but have tried some fake tans in the past but end up looking streaky and orange. Any brands that you could recommend, or any advice at all please? Do spray tans come off on your clothes? Thanks x

I think the best thing to do is use gradual tanning moisturisers and spray tans.
A good make is garnier. Their lotions and sprays are good because it's never left me with a streaky tan.
Johnsons holiday skin left me a little bit too orangey/yellow and was very streaky so i wouldnt recommend that.

A good thing to do though if you do happen to get streaks is shower and wash your face and exfoliate to fade the tan and you can try again.

I know what you mean about sunbeds. I used them one summer when i was 14 and i lied about my age and said i was 16 and i got a tan quickly but hated going on them because of the cancer worries.

Good luck xx

• I have tried every tanning moisturiser - johnsons, dove, garnier etc and the best one I found is loreal nutrisummer. I have recently discovered ambre solair spray tan which is very good. It goes on clear so you have to be careful applying it but the results are good and it hasn't come off on clothes or bed sheets. You can buy tan mits to apply more evenly or just use gloves to protect your hands.
