    Default Self tanners/ Gradual tanners for the fair

    I've read a bajillion posts and haven't found one clear favorite.
    I am fair skinned and trying to find a good self tanner. Gradual or regular doesn't matter. Most make me orange because I'm so light. Any suggestions?

    I'm somewhat fair w/gold undertones, & I like the Jergens gradual one. They also came out w/a new product that give you color right away. I've also used Rimmel, it's in a gold tube, not a tanner but just gives you color until you wash it off. Nice golden tan.

    I have used and liked Jergens Natural Glow which is a gradual tanner -takes 4 or 5 days to really notice color.

    For a regular self tanner I like Loreal Sublime Bronze. It's not orange, and has a light/fair option. I use the medium tan and it's not too dark.

    I am going to also suggest the Jergens Natural Glow.....
    I am pretty pale naturally, and have always had a hard time with self tanners turning me yellowish-orangeish.
    Since I tried the Jergens a few months ago, I am totally hooked on it and can't live without it.
    I have gotten so many compliments on my skin color I can't even tell you. No one even suspects I use any kind of tanning product at all. It really does look totally natural.
    A good tip I can share with you if you decide to use this product is avoid your knees, elbows, and ankles. It turns them darker and makes it look like they are dirty or something. I use a regular lotion on my knees elbows and ankles, then follow up with the Jergens.

    On the days I decide I need color, I use the L'Oreal Sublime Bronze as well. The color it produces is amazing!! It does take awhile to dry though, so be sure to plan for that if you do use it.

    oh oh and also, if you want a little more color than a gradual tanner will give you but don't want to go all the way dark, you can mix a gradual tanner with a regular self tanner and avoid streaks but still have more color show up.
